This lens is a real treat. It’s a funky vintage 500mm Spiratone. My buddy Victor1 lent it to me, and my first test with it was a moon shot. 

It uses mirrors instead of lenses. The light path traverses the length of the barrel three times and bounces off two mirrors, so it’s fat and squat, not long and skinny (just like reflecting vs. refracting telescopes).
