[QUOTE="Photowyzard, post: 73166, member: 8344"] [COLOR=#222222][FONT=Times]Here are some links to companies that sell 3rd Party Mirror Reflex Lenses: Rokinon 500mm f8 + a 2x Teleconverter $136 shipped in the USA - well priced - comes with a 2x teleconverter for two times the trouble! ;) - I have a 2x Nikon Teleconverter and it is that much harder to keep it still to focus! - see my moon shot with a 1000mm combo below!

The Nikon Lenses, unfortunately, are either eBay purchases or a camera store that sells them used. They are more expensive because they are substantially better quality in terms of build. I am not sure yet if they take a better picture! [/FONT][/COLOR] [FONT=Times]Lets try to find that out here! :)[/FONT][ATTACH=CONFIG]15442._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
