Some at the dog park with a Jupiter 8 (50mm f/2 rangefinder lens). It's darn good for a ~$35 lens.

Excellent and lots of fun, as always.

I think it's my final or end stage Soviet lens collection.

Amazing collection, congratulations! And so well captured (in all senses). I really like the different colours reflected across all that glass.

Three out of my last four Explores on Flickr have been from Soviet lenses:

Helios 44-2

Helios 44-3

And an all seeing eye in the woods with a Helios 44M-4

I really like the eye, Utak. Freaky!

One from the original silver Helios 44, on an early morning ride. The bike is only slightly newer than the lens.

JUPITER 9 85MM F2

Maybe my best portrait lens, unreal touch (at least on my original file) - needs to be closed one or two stops

Hello,

Hello Jani,
your combo seems excellent (k200d + Helios 44-2),

Jan178 · 09-23-2019, 07:44 PM

Thanks Scout! Tried it with K-x and K-5 too, K200 is nicest for some reason

Difficult to shoot a photo with this red composition. I think Helios needs another background to stand out.

MrKodak · 10-02-2019, 06:25 AM

I so need to go to Sydney again, I was there last time in 1987. I guess the town has changed a bit since then, judging by the pictures too.
