[QUOTE="Pierro, post: 73145, member: 8517"] Its no mean feat to get good shots of wildlife with a mirror lens, so well done. They are hard to control due to their light weight and short dimensions which in reality, makes vibrations more apparent, which is where the weight of a large regular refractor lens actually has an advantage, though some really dont like that weight There is also the fact that due to the anomolies in their construction, their stated fixed aperture is usally a bit smaller The donuts only appear on the OOF highlights rather than [I]any[/I] highlights. They can be fixed to some degree in Post, but for many they are ugly. [/QUOTE]
