Vintage Vivitar 500mm f/8 multicoated mirror telephoto lens with 1:2.7 macro focusing and Minolta Maxxum 7000/A-mount adapter. This compact, lightweight manual-focus super-telephoto lens uses a catadioptric mirror design known for producing distinctive donut-shaped bokeh.
The lens has a fixed f/8 aperture and must be focused manually. The included Minolta A-mount adapter can be removed, allowing the lens to potentially be used with other compatible T-mount adapters, sold separately.
