Nikon Nikkor 500mm f/8 Reflex (plus extras)

The Nikon Nikkor 500mm f/8 Reflex Lens is a compact and lightweight super-telephoto lens designed for Nikon F-mount cameras. Utilizing a catadioptric optical design, this lens achieves a long focal length in a portable form factor, making it ideal for wildlife, sports, and birding photography. The fixed f/8 aperture and manual focus operation provide precise control over depth of field and focus.

This original Nikon package includes:

1. Lens
2. Plastic cap
3. Metal HN-27 hood
4. Tripod mount ring
5. Leather lens carrying case with velvety lining and leather read-end filter case
6. 5 filters (one LC27 UV on the camera, 4 apparently never used and in original plastic) - LC27, A2, B2, O58, ND 4x (UV, an orange filter for B&W photography, vintage warming and cooling filters, and 4x neutral density filter)

Lens is optically, mechanically, and visually excellent quality. The original leather cases are cracked significantly on the outside due to age. They are still suitable for storage, but not much else.
