You might want to look at Tamron SP 500mm mirror lenses with the Adaptall-2
mount....you can find them at about $200 with the adapter (or less)
depending on what comes with it.... a rather complete set includes the case,
a filter set, and hood.....if it happens to come with an adapter for a
different body (Nikon, etc.) you can always sell the adapter on ebay and
purchase the correct one..... .a very fine mirror lens. Here's one

...no connection with seller.
