They are fixed aperture. They'll work the same way K and M lenses work.
Hit the green button or equivalent to set the shutter speed.

Or did I simply get him wrong? He said something about mirror lenses
being
fixed aperture.

I'm not picky about focal length, speed or condition, provided it is
inexpensive. I'd need something in either K mount or m42.
I'm also willing to pay more for a faster one. What I'm trying to
determine for myself is whether or not I want to pay $200 for a 500mm
f5.6 mirror.
Let me know what'cha got or if you have any heads-ups for me. I've
seen a lot of 500mm f8s on eBay in the $100 range, which is too much
for a lens that I probably wouldn't use after testing.
