Gary --  I've seen one of these lenses before.  Fifty dollars is a good
price!
It is a catadioptric, or mirror lens.  If I remember correctly it does
not
require additional lenses to invert the image.  It was designed for a
35mm
camera to be mounted via the T-ring system so any type of 35mm camera
that 
has a T-mount ring can be fitted.

It would be useful for those special pictures like a dolphin flying
through
the air in front of a supertanker ship after building up speed riding
the 
bow wave.  There is a famous poster of such and I've witnessed these
events
with my Celestron telescope.  It would also be useful to photograph the 
green flash of sunsets check http://www.netcom.com/~flzhgn/grnray.htm

BTW,  I'm looking for a job as a biological science research
    technician.  If you know of anyone who might need a technician
    with my skills (see resume on my home page) please let me know.
