I've been using this lens one and off since I got it from the kickstarter. I like it quite a bit. The only complaint I have is the focusing knob / focus throw. It's a little too short / small. I wish either it took more turns to focus from 3m to infinity or the knob was about twice as big so it was easier to focus quickly and accurately. Also, I wish the aperture was slightly bigger so it was a closer competition with the Helios 40-2.

I heard that the aperture disc can fall out when the camera is shooting a vertical picture or vertical portrait.
can i use this for nikon dx body cameras ??
ne vorrei un 58 usato o ricondizionnato dopo aver venduto i miei lensbaby ,,,,,, amo il boket...chissa se trovo uno in occasione...
Will this work on a Leica m or fuji xt-2 ?
yes, if they have a canon or Nikon mount on them for some reason.
my sony alpha is so sad
Made of 'Russian glass', you are the joker at home? Do you know the difference beween crown glass, flin glass, rare earth glass?
