Anyone going to give them a try?

In the past I have dance with the idea of buying a mirror lens but just felt they are not worth it.

These look more compact than previous models

The 300mm is a very nice size for EOS M. 40 years ago I bought an Ohnar 300mm f /5.6 mirror for my SLR; later I sold it to a friend as it was getting very little use, and still very occasionally have a twinge of regret about that. At f /7.1 the Tokina should have even more doughnut bokeh than the Ohnar, but the high ISO capabilities of digital will make it much more usable than the Ohnar was on film. My walk around lens these days is the 11-22mm, so I'll not bother with these.
