Although
only a few inches long, this provides the effective magnification of
a conventional lens 19" in length! For air shows, auto races,
it's unexcelled. Light enough to hand hold if you have a steady
hand. Because of its fixed aperture, it requires practice to get the
most out of this or any other mirror (catadioptric) lens.
