They’re certainly not going to win any awards, but for handheld at 800mm with only IBIS to help (it doesn’t help much), I’m happy with these as the first shots from the crazy mirror lens. (Check out the donut bokeh!}
The cons, aside from not really being suitable for handheld use: it’s hard to focus (very shallow depth of field) & a little soft even when in focus.

Time for Canon or Nikon to make a mirror lens with autofocus.

Has anyone achieved sharp photos when using a 500mm mirror lens on a Pentax Q camera?

Fun with #MirrorLens ЗМ-5А (ie. ZM-5A) 500 mm f/8, Soviet-era Russian reflex lens.
It’s very difficult to focus but it delivers (IMO) surprisingly sharp images if one manages to nail it and the light is OK.
Taken on Olympus E-M5 mk. III.

An-eagla a bhí orm go ndéanfar damáiste do bhraiteoir mo cheamara agus mé ag déanamh an ghrianghraif. Ach tá sé fós beo, baochas le dia. Tá fócas beagán shite toisc ná raibh uaim súcradh leis an gceamara ró-fhada agus é dírithe i dtreo na gréine.

When you’ve a lens with 2000 mm full-frame equivalent reach (1000 mm on a μ4/3 body) in a small flat apartment, bad weather, and nothing productive to do for a while.
E-M5 mk. 3 + ЗМ-5А 500 mm + 2x teleconverter, 6400 ISO, 1/13 s.

10. Moon.
A moon shot with a Soviet-era 500mm #MirrorLens ЗМ-5А (ZM-5A). I was surprised by its sharpness. The softness in the photo is due to atmospheric movements and me stacking multiple photos with slightly different distortions.

And another result of me playing with the ЗМ-5А (ZM-5A) 500 mm #MirrorLens and image stacking (13 bright exposures for the moons, 20 darker ones of the planet).
Not great but much better than I’d anticipated.

My brother lent me an old ЗМ-5А (ZM-5A) 500 mm f/8 mirror lens and a 2× teleconverter.
This is the result of me playing with it yesterday. :) Five stacked exposures at 1/20 s each, ISO 640 each.
Effective focal length 1000 mm, equivalent of 2000 mm full-frame.
The lens is pretty much a compact Maksutov-Cassegrain telescope with m42x1 mount.

Eye of Sauron? Shot 10 minutes ago #handheld using 500mm Tamron SP 500 BBAR 55BB f/8 fixed aperture #mirror lens (zero optical aberrations) at 1/8000s ISO-125 on a #Canon body with #IBIS. User reviews of this #vintage #catodioptric #lens here: https://www.pentaxforums.com/userreviews/tamron-adaptall-2-sp-500mm-f-8-mirror-55bb.html I used electronic shutter to reduce in-body vibrations. Unprocessed #SOOC, resized for upload.

There is some kind of light installation on the old water tower of #Berlin's #Virchow hospital. They illuminate it in changing colours, right now it's green.

*from my photo archive*
The city of #Athens, seen from a hill on #Agistri island about 40 kilometres away. In the center of the image, you can see the #Acropolis in front of Mount #Lycabettus, and especially the west pediment of the #Parthenon glowing in the evening sun.
Image taken in September 2019 with a vintage 500mm #CanonReflexLens (c. 1980) and a #FujifilmXT2 digital camera.
