Cheap mirror long-focal-length lenses (Rubinar, MTO, ZM... ) M42 are very popular in Russia! They lightweight and compact :
300mm - 1000mm mirror photo lens is applied for any type of camera with a proper ring adaptor to M42x1 thread and used for photographing of remote objects, inaccessible parts of terrain, astronomical objects, architectural details, sports competitions, animals and birds in general ideal for photo hunting.
Special multilayer antireflection coatings at optical elements increase the light transmission; decrease the light dispersion; raise the contrast of a photo object. The photographic lens is furnished with a set of colour filters, and supplied in a handy carrying case.
They produce by LZOS - Lytkarino Optical Glass Factory - Leading manufacturer of optical materials and glass in Russia.

I used mirror lens with my Olympus 4/3 through steel M42-4/3 adapter with AF/IS (http://oly43club.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=230)
mirror lens compatible with all E-series (E-300, E-500, E-510... not assured about E-3) without any modification!
my collection mirror lens:
Rubinar 500/5.6
Rubinar 300/4.5
ZM-7 300/5.6
MTO 1000/10
ZM-5 500/8
mirror lens Rubinar is sharp with specific bohe (boublik)
on OLYMPUS 4/3 the focal length Increases twice
photo:
OLYMPUS E-300 + Rubinar 500/5.6 (~ 1000mm on 4/3)
macro:
E-330 + ZM-5 (500/ ~ 1000mm on 4/3

Good lens, designed by the Russian Dmitri Dmitriyevich Maksutov. Did constructive caused no chromatic aberration. Light is reflected and only little broken. Reflector (mirror lens) and refractor( normally lenses).The bokeh is unusual.
Nice Pictures.

Theoretically Rubinar more sharper and modern but in practice they are identical...

I have bought:
Rubinar 300/4.5 - $80
Rubinar 500/5.6 - $100
ZM-7 - $70
Rubinar MTO 1000/10 - $200
ZM-7 300/5.6 it is a very compact lens (little bit less and more widely than Jupiter-37 135/3.5) And always with me my 600мм )

Thats a point, the E330 omits all that mirror/prism/bulge nonsense.
Although more recent Olympus models do not - from dpreview of E3:
Quote: |
Of course the Olympus range itself wasn't standing still, and after a few false starts (mainly caused by the almost suicidal tendency for Olympus industrial designers to produce cameras that didn't look like cameras) and some flashes of inspired innovation (bringing live view, kicking and screaming, to the SLR market, for example) the E-series started to be taken a lot more seriously. |
