The lens was sent very quick.
I was astonished when learning I had to pay another Euro 30 from the company who delivered the lens in the Netherlands. That was a very disappointing experience, not having got any information about this by Amazon.com. beforehand.

This lens is a great buy if you want to go on the cheap. But, in general, I'd say save the money for a decent lens for your camera. I have the Nikon D40x, and I wish I'd waited to buy a real Nikon lens with autofocus and Vibration Reduction.
For the Opteka 500mm you need a lot of light (a lot of light). You also need a stable platform (tri- or monopod) and patience. It takes time and energy to make this lens work right and produce clear images. If you're a weekend birder who wants to get closer, hold out for a better lens or be prepared to get a lot of blurry images for every decent one.

I use my D40 mostly for school pictures football, band, etc. It did not fit my needs. Night games I can not use it. Trying to follow the action I could not use it. There were no instructions on what settings to use it on had to play with it for about 3 days. However it is a fine lens for still life. I am not a pro just a regular guy who wants some close up of his kids at events. Guess I will have to try a 2x converter. I am not advanced enough for this yet.
