The SZ 500mm f/8 Reflex MF Lens is specifically designed for Nikon Z cameras, including the Nikon Z9, Nikon ZF, Nikon Z5, Nikon Z6, Nikon Z6 II, Nikon Z7, Nikon Z7 II, and Nikon Z8. It adopts a Nikon Z standard (pitch 0.75 mm, thread 42mm), allowing the lens to be attached to any camera using mount adapters. This durable lens is perfect for travel photography due to its compact and lightweight design, enabling you to capture far objects that cannot be reached by standard zoom lenses.

It's versatile, serving you well in various photographic genres, including landscape, people, street snap, macro, wild nature, and even sports! The long 500mm focal length of the SZ 500mm f/8 Reflex MF Lens is realized thanks to its catadioptric optical design. Mirror lenses are telephoto lenses that incorporate a combination of lenses and mirrors to reflect light back and forth between the ends of the lens, cutting the tube length in half. This construction makes the physical size of the lens around a third of the size of a conventional lens and allows for a lightweight body.

The lens elements inside the SZ 500mm f/8 Reflex MF Lens are coated with a multi-layer anti-reflection coating for effective light intake, resulting in increased shutter speed in low light conditions. The mirrored surfaces of the lens elements incorporate a high-reflectivity silvered coating and a protective antioxidant layer on the backside for a longer product lifetime. The SZ 500mm f/8 Reflex MF Lens also offers a specific bokeh effect, creating a unique, donut-shaped, and super smooth bokeh that's loved by many artistic photographers. Thanks to its long focal length, this lens can create images with a super compression effect, showing the background close and enlarged compared to the main object, adding an enchanting atmosphere to your images.

The SZ 500mm f/8 Reflex MF Lens comes with a hood and supports 72mm (front) and 30.5 mm (rear) filters, allowing photographers to use any creative filters for artistic purposes. With its reliable and versatile mount system, this lens is a valuable addition to any photographer's gear collection.
