Great value. I use this on a Fuji X-T4 and the reach it gets for the moon is amazing. The lens gets sharp around f/8 or 11, but wide open it is a little soft. The focus ring is very stiff but that is a feature because the focus is razor thin and tiny tweaks go a long way.The lens had some dust within the elements but it doesn't seem to affect the image quality yet. I would expect a perfectly clean lens when buying brand new but I guess TTArtisan's QC isn't great, or I got a lens someone used a ton.Chromatic aberration is handled very well and even shots of the moon, which is a shot that is notorious for causing CA, has minimal CA. It is easily fixed if needed.I don't expect doing wildlife with this lens, or at least nothing that requires lots of focus racking. The focus ring is just too stiff and the DoF is just too thin.The photo attached here is a stacked and composited photo of the moon, fully processed. So, what you can expect when I do my normal workflow. The second one (daytime) is an export of a single frame, uncropped, with minimal processing.

For a budget lens this is surprisingly decent. It does have a slight softness to the image quality. For an entry level long telephoto I’d recommend it. However if you are serious about getting that crisp image I’d save up and pick up a used lens for $750-1000

Very hard to focus unlike any other lens and forget moving subjects. Looks skinny on fujifilm gfx 50sii or like you spent $300 on a telephoto lens for a several thousand dollar camera body😂. That all aside it takes good sharp pictures handheld at f6.3 with in body image stabilization and shutter at 400.

The RF connection is loose on the Canon EOS R. It's a close fit but not quite right.Beyond that, it's got some issues... The focus ring is extremely slow and takes a keen eye to get a sharp image. The slightest touch can blurr your image.But in a pinch this lens will do the job if this is the price point you can afford.Disclaimer: this is a manual only lens, there is no autofocus. In fact your camera won't even recognize that there's a lens on. You'll have to go into the menu, click the camera icon, and turn "on" shutter with no lens

I am very hap out with this purchase but maybe I should have invested on a tripod as well. It takes great picture from afar. It only stays at 500mm it doesn’t zoom out the only thing to see further is to just adjust it and you’re good. Packaging came perfectly good. The best lens you can buy for this price. The first time you grab it feels a little heavy but after a while you adjust to it and it won’t be a big problem.

My only mistake is I did not notice the minimum distance is not very close (3,3 meters) I plan to photograph puffins with this lens this summer and I’m often able to be very close to them.

The TTArtisan 500mm F/6.3 Supertelephoto Lens Manual Focus Full Frame Lenses (EOS-RF Mount) is a surprising value. It is a prime focus telephoto with manual focus and aperture rings mounted on the barrel. The rings are rather stiff to turn, which is OK for still photography, but may be cumbersome for moving subjects if rapid refocus is needed. Its tripod foot has two 1/4-20 threaded holes to allow balancing different weight cameras. My Canon EOS R6-Mk II mounted perfectly on the back of the lens and balanced with the forward hole on my tripod.The lens is very sharp when stopped down to f11. I thought it was a little soft at f6.3. I have not noticed any chromatic problems. My moonshots are black and white with fine detail and no rainbows, although the subject is centered, so any edge problems don't show.When you consider 500 mm lenses sell for 10x what this costs it is a real value, if you are willing to give up all the luxuries of a Canon RF zoom lens.
