Description from the seller

Make sure it is packed and shipped carefully (insured)

The Helios 44 58 mm f/2 is a classic vintage standard lens from the famous Helios series, produced in the Soviet Union. The lens has a 58 mm focal length and a maximum aperture of f/2, making it excellent for portrait and everyday photography on 35 mm film cameras with an M42 screw mount or with an adapter on modern mirrorless cameras. The optical construction typically comprises 6 elements in 4 groups, contributing to good sharpness and a characterful rendering with a slightly warm color rendition and a soft transition to background blur, which is beloved by enthusiasts of film- and vintage-look aesthetics. The metal housing feels robust and solid, and the manual focus ring turns smoothly, providing a pleasant classic handling experience. This unit with serial number 801903g is in good optical and mechanical condition and is ready for use with a compatible body.
