I wrote a review on the Opteka version of lens this on Amazon. Basically, if you're an amateur and aren't selling your pictures, it's not a bad deal. But just know that it's very awkward to handle (especially when extended - it actually bends a bit at the middle). Also, its tiny aperture makes it very hard to attain a reasonable shutter speed, and it isn't corrected for chromatic aberration. It depends on what you use it for, but it's no nikon glass, that's for sure.
Just like my Opteka 1300x2 and EOS-550D.
Tested my 550D and 4" mirror-telescope, with the same outcome (disturbing atmosphere).
