Rare prominent Soviet standard lens MC Helios-77M-4 50mm f1.8 with M42 screw mount, based on the famous Biotar 58mm.
The best among Soviet 50mm lenses.


The lens is in near mint fully working condition with very light signs of use on the body. The optics is clear, without haze, fungus etc. There is some usual for an old lens dust inside. The focusing is working good. The barrel is clean. The aperture blades are free of oil.

Comes with both caps.
I tested this MC Helios-77M-4 lens with a Canon DSLR camera and it worked as should.
The lens fits modern cameras using a special adapter.
I have protective and colour filters for this lens, please see:
