Wouldn’t it be better if it was F1.4? Yes, of course it would be better, but we would never find these prices. I can say that it is sufficient in terms of both light and bokeh quality. When Crop machines are installed, it corresponds to around 90mm, so there is no doubt that it is in the ideal value range for the portrait.į 2 makes our lens fast enough.
An ideal focal length for a 58mm portrait. No, our lens has a focal length of 58mm, not 44mm. Although it is the 44m model name, those who first see these lenses can think of focal length. Also, the Russian model perceptions are already mixed. There are so many of these lenses on the market that it is not possible to mix them anyway. Please note that the ratings made in this photo, where I use the Pentaxform site, are made by different users. Name Confusion of Russian Lenses In the picture above you will see comparisons of the popular Zenit Helios 44m 58mm f2 lenses. They’re just physically less bulky or lighter. Apart from that, I could not observe an optical difference. Those who use MC are more resistant to light glare. In the first ones, while there was no coating, then in those produced, first coating coating and then multiple Multi Coating coating (MC) were used. But optically very rare differences can be observed. The information I will write above and below belongs to this version. The lens that made me write this article is the Zenit Helios 44m-5 MC version. Since I have different copies at different times, I cannot compare each one with the other. In general, as the last number grows, a little more increase is observed in the quality. Although the genetic structure of each is very similar, there are minor differences.

Although the series I have is Helios 44m-5, these lenses have 7 or 8 (or… more than I can count) different types.

Full frame and crop are compatible with all kinds of machines. With the M42 screw-in slot, it can be easily used with adapters in old analog cameras, DSLR cameras and mirrorless today. Helios 58mm is a metal lens with a weight of 240 g and a length of 4 cm. Helios 44m 58mm f2 Lens Features Lens NameĪrray of optical elements Zenit Helios 44m 58mm f2 Versions and Physical Properties Helios 44m-5 58mm f2 We will talk about the features of Helios 44m series lenses.
The blue window image uses a high grade polarizer.Dear readers, hello In this article, the Zenit Helios 44m 58mm f2 series (44, 44-2, 44-3, 44m, 44m-2, 44m-3, 44m-4, 44m-5, 44m-6), which are the most famous of the Soviet Russian lenses and are widely available in the market. I often use it at big aperture because I really like it’s bokeh. I’ve tried to make a set which show different motifs for the lens. The images are shot over time since march this year. I think it’s a good idea to use a lenshood. Colours are most often good, only encountered some very bright light when colours feelt a little washed out (but in that circumstance, it could have been the case with any lens). I have tried it in many different situations, I find it sharp with very good bokeh. I have used this for quite a while now, actually. This lens is sharp, durable and does what it should. Somehow this lens makes me to think of Soviet tanks from the Second World War (like the T-34), built to hold through the Russian winter and puts function before the feature (as opposed to the German tanks which froze in the snow). On the EOS the focal length equivalent is (58mm * 1.6) 92.8 mm. Robust, good minimal focus distance, flexible rings. You set the aperture before taking the picture, but when you focus you would like to have more light – so you can open up completely with the other aperture ring. It can be confusing before you know how it works. It is a preset lenses, which means that it has two rings to deal with the aperture. Other Helios models was manufactured in (KMZ) Krasnogorsk / Moscow or elsewhere. It has M42-thread, and thus fits my adapter to EOS. MC Helios (ГЕЛИОС) 44-3 58mm / 2 was produced as mentioned at BeLOMO in Minsk (Belarus).
Since earlier I knew that Helios-lenses is appreciated internationally. After Google on camera model Zenit ET revealed that the camera had standard MC Helios 44-3 58mm / 2 (it could also have been equipped with Industar-lens). The advertisement said nothing about the lens and the markings on the lensfront was shielded by lenscap. The winning bid was for SEK 100 (about £8.30). I won the bid for a Zenit ET camera, a flash and Helios lens on Tradera (Swedish ebay). The states of the former Soviet union actually made a lot of good camera equipment, and what I’m going to write about now is a copy from a Carl Zeiss-factory that ended up in the Eastern block after the war and “moved” to Russia. It is manufactured in BeLOMO, Minsk in the early 80’s 90’s. I suspect that many photographer frowns when I put on of my old MC Helios-lens.
