Thank you for waiting. I am pleased to offer the Helios-44-2, famous for its swirly bokeh, which I have obtained after a long time. It is an M42 mount. In recent years, it has become one of the old lenses whose rarity has increased due to the expansion of demand. Front and rear caps are included. The front cap will be either a clip-on type as shown in the image or a slip-on type. The body has some minor scratches, but I think it is in quite good condition for an old Russian lens. It is difficult to find items in such good condition in Japan. This lens has been disassembled and cleaned, and dust has been removed as much as possible. Due to the structure, dust is likely to enter, and there may be some minor dust particles, but they are minor and will not affect the image quality. The focus ring has also been greased, so it moves smoothly. There may be some thin, fine wiping marks on the lens surface, which are characteristic of Helios lenses, but they are minor and will not affect the image quality. Both the aperture ring and the focus ring move normally. I think this is a lens that is in generally good condition. As an aside, if you do not have an adapter, I recommend purchasing an adapter made by K&F Concept. Inexpensive adapters that can be purchased for under 1000 yen may lack precision, and it is safer to purchase a well-made one. If you have any questions, please ask. I will answer them as best I can. I am also offering other rare old Soviet lenses, and I plan to increase the number of items in the future, so please take a look. biotar Helios 44-2
