Hopefully the mirror is of a good quality... there aren't many mirrors with good mirrors sadly!
Also the 400 instead of a 500 or 600 or 800 makes it a bit more handholdable (around a 1/3 of a stop).

I'm looking at the Samyang 500mm. It looks interesting, a good focal length, and I'm wondering how the quality is. I have the 85mm, and I'm quite pleased with it, specially considering the price. The also have an 800mm, and I wonder how that is as well.
