Helios 40 vs agave · 06:09 PM

Testing out the 'new' (too me) Helios 40 85/1,5.

the helios 40 isn't easy to find, isn't it? where were you able to get it?

A little thin with the DoF, but good find in that lens.

The Helios was a really great ebay find. Picked up a few nice lenses from the same seller.
The DOF wide open is razor thin, interesting bokeh.
Thanks for the comments. Will post more photos when I get the chance.
