i dont mind the ring highlights, the only issue i have with that lens is that the focus ring is very sensitive, like turn it 5 Degree makes the difference between focusing 30m and focusing 500m away, but maybe that is due to my M42 to E-Mount adapter which basically acts like a tiny macro bellow changing the sensor distance 4cm away from where it should be.
The lens has markings on the focus ring, 10m and 200m are 180 Degree away from each other on there, maybe i have to get a smaller adapter to get closer to those numbers…
1000mm? sounds expensive, unless f/11 with cheap glass and plastic barrel, but picture clarity says would be otherwise

The perfect gift for the spy in your life.
Tripod required.
u can handheld point an shoot with this one too, just set the shutter speed to 1/8000 and crank the iso up to 60k
40-50 year old soviet mirror lens, 70euros used, build like a tank, probably was a tank optic once lol
i see, those can be built compact with little glass, a bit quirky with their ring highlights, but that’s your thing, that’s another plus
