I used to use mirror lenses quite a bit in the late 80's and will actually use my Tamron 500mm 55BB lens for a Fashion shoot. I will use flash as usual and hope that my Multi Blitz infra red sensor on my hotshoe of the camera will work with the extended distance from my flash heads. Should be interesting.
Do you think that Pentax and other manufacturers should revive mirror lenses, but with AF as is the case with the re-labeled Sony 500mm ex-Minolta lens.
I love how it blows out the background, really quirky. I love "circles of confusion" or "CoC" in some of my photographic applications. The term used for the background effect of cat lenses.
