************************************************
It is the best and most popular Soviet lens in the world !!!

This famous lens was manufactured in the USSR and features outstanding sharpness, contrast and color rendition.
 

Photographers and cinematographers who are looking for a classic, more filmic image often use these lenses.  They will give images and footage a wonderful atmosphere quite distinct from the look of modern Japanese lenses.
Soviet lenses today are in great demand all over the world because that is not inferior in quality to modern Japanese and European photographic technique, but the Soviet lenses are much cheaper.

For photography lovers looking for a camera lens that captures clear foreground images while providing unique and beautiful bokeh affects, the Helios 44-4 is worth considering. Lens construction within this Helios camera lens for Zenit/Pentax is six elements in four groups. This lens 58 mm f/2.0 is compatible with many DSLR cameras with adapter. It attaches to traditional, 35-mm cameras via the M42 x 1 thread. The Helios 44m-4 features a maximum focal aperture of f/2.0. High focal apertures yield pictures with detail finer than what is perceived with the human eye. 

Fixed at 58 mm, with original bokeh and sharp imaging, it will be ideal for portraits, landscapes and in some cases for macro shooting. Helios 44-4 gives unique photos with beautiful, soft swirly bokeh in the background. Taking portraits? This model will suits you perfectly! On APS-C systems the angle of view becomes narrower and the lens is converted into a decent aperture portrait lens. Helios 44-4 is an excellent budget choice for portraits - you get artistic pictures from the pure color reproduction, smooth background blur and bokeh effect. Lens features allow you to smooth out minor blemishes and make-contrast shadow transitions softer. Nevertheless, Helios 44-4 can also be used when shooting landscapes, when there is no need for clear details. 
**********************************************
Helios 44-4 lens is a classic 58mm lens that was produced as the kit prime on the Zenit-series russian SLR. Its production was stopped in early 90s, but the lens has found recognition among contemporary photographers. Some may consider Russian lenses brick-like but they are well constructed and not worse than recent plastic models. The lens has manual focus so you need to get used to. You will need to be creative with this lens and also need to be quick because of the manual focus.

CPL Filter

A Polarizer is different than most filters in that it is composed of two pieces of glass, mounted independently inside a round frame so that one can be rotated relative to the other. As it is rotated, it increasingly cuts out glare and haze. Circular Polarizing filter eliminates reflections from non-metallic surfaces, and increases contrast and color saturation.

Increases color and contrast by removing unwanted reflections from non-metallic surfaces such as water or glass. Reduce glare and reflections significantly from non-metallic surfaces by using the CPL filter. Foliage is richer, skies bluer. Polarizers are most useful for increasing general outdoor color saturation and contrast. Polarizers can darken a blue sky, a key application, on color as well as on black-and-white film.

Polarizing filter cannot be successfully emulated by digital post-processing.
Polarizers can also control unwanted reflections from surfaces such as glass and water. For best results, be at an angle of 33 degrees incident to the reflecting surface.  Viewing through while rotating the polarizer will show the effect. It may not always be advisable to remove all reflections.
Polarizers allow color and contrast enhancement, as well as reflection control, using optical principles different from any other filter types. Most light that we record is reflected light that takes on its color and intensity from the objects we are looking at.
