Zenit 12CD on Flickr.Via Flickr: With a Helios 44M-6 lens, 58mm f2. I bought this wonderful looking camera on eBay as part of a bundle, which also included my treasured Jupiter-37AM. I don’t know a lot about these cameras but from what I could gather from the seller this one was bought new in 1991, had 2 rolls of film put through it and was then boxed and stored since. Looking at it I wouldn’t argue that at all, it looks practically brand new and absolutely everything works, including the LED high-low light meter!

Helios Test Shot on Flickr.Via Flickr: Helios 44M 2/58 lens. Handheld @ f4 on my Canon 450D. I really cannot believe the sharpness of this lens, it’s the first manual focus I’ve bought and I’m so impressed. This particular lens is older than I am! They really don’t make them like they used to.
