MC HELIOS-44M-4 LENS FOR:
M42, ZENIT, PENTAX, PRAKTICA, BESSAFLEX CAMERAS, or for a lot of other SLR with 42mm lens mount...
MC HELIOS-44M-4 is a standard multi coated (MC) lens with springblend aperture designed for Soviet SLR 35 mm Zenit cameras.
The lens can be fitted on the M42 Pentax cameras.
First HELIOS-44 lenses were borrowed from Carl Zeiss BIOTAR lenses and issued since end of 1950th years in M39, then in M42
screw mount, and had not very good glory because were with low contrast in common... But latest versions of HELIOS-44 lens became very sharp.
This famous
lens was manufactured in the USSR, and features outstanding sharpness, contrast
and color rendition. I saw
photos taken with
similar lenses several times before and I appreciated
excellent pictures quality. In the
main, most all Soviet and Russian lenses are exceptionally
good and this one is no exception!
It can be used with a lot of digital Micro 4/3 cameras with simple and inxpensive adapter.
All functions are available!
