Vivitar on a Lumix? Yessir!

A fun addition to my collection of telephoto lenses. This one reaches out and brings in some great shots.

Rated 4 out of 5

Good lens for the price. Moon shots, ISS shots, nature shots.

It is very narrow and needs lot of light. Works well on my Canon 6D and Canon M with the appropriate adapters. It is not too heavy. Lens mount for tripod is good so your camera lens mount doesn't have to hold the weight.

Vivitar on a Lumix? Yessir!

By JEAN H.

A fun addition to my collection of telephoto lenses. This one reaches out and brings in some great shots.

The Vivitar 500mm f/8 Mirror Lens is an incredibly compact and lightweight ultra telephoto. Using an advanced reflex design, our lens is a fraction of the size and weight of a traditional 500mm. Defocused areas behind the subject give smooth highlights, forming immediately recognizable rings that photographers prize. The Super Spectra Coatings assure virtually flare free photographs even under adverse lighting conditions. A simple T-mount adapter makes this lens work with both film and digital SLR cameras.

Vivitar 500mm F/8 Features

  • Super Spectra coatings
  • Aluminum alloy construction
  • Full-time manual focus override
  • Focus preset function allows
  • Circular aperture
  • Uses T-Mount adapter (not included)
  • Can be used with film and digital SLR cameras
