    Overview

    The Tair-33 300mm f/4.5 is a heavy, all-metal lens (1550-1875g) with solid build. Optically, it offers impressive absence of color fringing wide open and smooth bokeh from 16 aperture blades, but sharpness improves when stopped down to f/5.6 or f/8, and chromatic aberration is visible wide open. Focusing is manual via a rotary dial, tricky for moving subjects. It suits photographers seeking a vintage look on a budget, especially for tripod-based stills or video.
