Mirror Lens on Pentax DLSR

[elavan]

And its all thanks to your recommendation, airconvent. Actually the lens is not white, but rather off-white...so not so matching to the camera, just that the lighting makes them look the same.

Thanks for the tip about contrast, think I should be able to enhance the contrast thru pp right?

you may shoot raw and photoshop using local adaptation to re-tone, same idea as HDR, i use it to rescue my pics if i'm shooting through glass and the out-of-camera output is severely under-contrast

Sure thing. I am not into PP though, so images must come out best as they could straight from the camera. I have another 2 more "mirror lens" at home, an 8" diameter 2000mm Celestron OTA and a 4" 1500mm Meade OTA...for astronomy. But they can be adapted for photography too but like carrying a bazooka...haha. My fellow astronomers do take astro-photos with it but focus is on light capture and detail. Have fun with your Kenko. If we can both go for the next outing, I can bring the Sigma along to show you.

Cool!
