thanks for the info, it is useful.

now for the real question, is the most desireable bokeh with the preset aperture, (i.e. blades at the front of the lens) or auto aperture (blades closer to the back of the lens)

what is interesting in the collection shown by georgweb is that the 44-2 and 44-3 have 8 aperture blades, the 44-6 and 44-7 have 6 blades and the origonal boitar appears to have 11 blades.

My Helios 44-M has 8 also.

Also the 44-M has the aperture close to the camera body as opposed to many of the lenses in the photo which have (or at least appear to have) the aperture at the front

What is the best version from the point of view of IQ and Bokeh?
