For what it's worth
By Jeremy L. Lewis
I picked one of these up for shooting the moon, not for any other reason. Here's some useful information on the lens. First of all it is incredibly light. My Nikon 70-300 weighs more than this lens does. Second of all, the T Mount is simple to attach, just turn it backwards on the lens and you'll feel the threads line up, then tighten it up. Most important this will work with ALL Nikon F mount cameras. However, you need to understand that this is not a CPU lens, it sends no info to the camera body. Meaning you must use it in manual mode. I set my lens to f/8 and used the manual setting on the camera to set the shutter speed. If you follow the camera meter, the shots are going to be way over exposed. So use an exposure meter, or a chart. I shot a half moon at f/8 for 1/1000 of a second. ISO 400. I'm using this on a D2H so I attached the camera to a tripod rather than the lens. Rather have a cheap lens slip than my camera. The lens is long so any vibration is going to be very visible. What I did was set the shutter speed, look through the view finder, (Here is where I miss my F3HP) and wait until the lens had steadied and then used a remote to fire the shutter. Just to see what it would do I used the 10 second timer, and the lens was steady, but there was no wind at all. You'll need a tripod to use this and a remote release is a must. Will I keep it, or sell it? The shots I got of the moon were good, could see craters and the like. I'll have a better idea when I shoot a full moon with it. You can see the result of my first use of the lens in the image of the moon.

Novelty Item
By switzertex
This is more of a novelty item than a serious lens. You can get some good, sharp pictures if every circumstance is perfect, but it is horribly impractical to actually take anywhere. First of all, the lens is very long so you probably don't have room for it in your bag. Second, you will always need to use this on a tripod. You probably figured that out already, but what I didn't realize was just how hard it would be to keep this thing steady.During the day, haze will quickly deteriorate your picture quality and at night you will need to use long exposure times. I did get some really cool night shots; however, for a long exposure to be crisp, the lens needs to be perfectly still. I could only do this indoors looking through a window, because the slightest breeze would cause vibration outside. If I mounted my camera on the body, it was very front-heavy, but mounting on the lens made it very back-heavy. Granted, I don't have a $300 professional-grade tripod, but I really hate using tripods, so that $300 will go toward other gear any day. I also used a remote shutter release with this setup, which is a given.I had some fun trying to get pictures of far-away skyscrapers, but ultimately returned the item because I could not get it to focus on the moon - and at that point, I really didn't have any other use for it. I've heard that buying the right cheap t-mount or grinding down the one it comes with will fix that, but I don't want to gamble with either option.

By George
Fits nicely the Nikon 3200 but has to be used in fully manual mode as it is not automatic. It takes pictures wuite far and zooms in nicely.
