Promotion number 4

Promotion number 4

Terms and Conditions: in the comments to this article, you need to specify a lens on which, in your opinion, everything is shot. Be sure to justify your conclusion in a few words... Also, do not forget to indicate your e-mail, which will be used to contact the winner. The promotion lasts until one of the participants guesses.

First who guesses the lens following the rules, receives a SLR Camera Zenit-TTL with Helios-44m 2.0 / 58 lens. Delivery in Ukraine by New Mail (warehouse). Participants from other countries can simply participate. Below is a view of the gift itself.

Tips: this is a damn expensive lens at the time of its release, shot on D700, added sharpness and contrast without cropping.

Here are the photos themselves, which should guess the lens:

  • Vladimir

    Tair 38Ts 135/4
    The drawing is similar, the bokeh is blurry similar to 135mm. The sharpness of the photo is similar for the claimed 45/30 in Tahir.
    Very expensive.

    • Vladimir

      As for the price, I take my words back. I meant that now they are selling very expensive. I don’t know at the time of issue of prices.

  • Sergei

    Tair 11

  • Vladimir

    Arkady, good afternoon.
    Sorry for not being modest, where are the promised tips on the 20th?

    • Arkady Shapoval

      Vladimir, note that the promised tips after the 20th were in the action number 3 radojuva.com.ua/2012/09/lenst-detect-3/, which ended on the same day of the 20th.

  • Vladimir

    Yes not attentive sorry.

  • Oleg Yudin

    I don’t know which topic to use for the next question, so I’ll ask a few - How to use and where to get a magnifying eyecup, for example TENPA 1,22x NIKON.

  • PSTD

    helios 3, world 41 are similar, but I just can’t find all of their characteristics, it would seem that they have already described the lens to the limit, but I can’t find the exact option

    • Arkady Shapoval

      No. By the way, share the link on the forums, I'm more than sure that there are many people who quickly guess.

  • Michael

    Perhaps I’ll start from the tips.
    Soviet. Now they sell expensive, apparently rare. The aperture is f / 3.5 - f / 4 (which is good for a telephoto lens, for example). The diaphragm has 6 blades and does not hold back light well (24).
    Photos 15-16, involuntarily push to think that this is a variable. Or not?
    The cat is shot clearly at 100mm and more considering the full-frame D700. What does the photo 22 and 25, too.
    Well, I even get lost ... Almost at random - Variozenitar-K, 4.0 / 70-210.

    • Arkady Shapoval

      They are not selling expensive now, but at the time of release it was quite a lot. Not rare. This is a fix.

      • Michael

        "They are not selling at a high price now, but at the time of release there were quite a lot"
        Just somewhere you wrote that you made a reservation and did not know how much it cost at the time of release.
        Okay. We think more ...

        • Arkady Shapoval

          Nothing like this. The price is indicated in the conditions of the promotion.

  • Vladimir

    I can assume that this is Jupiter 11, leaving all the hints and sharpness of the photo.

    • Arkady Shapoval

      Let's summarize the tips:
      1. This is a Soviet lens
      2. This is a fix, not a zoom
      3. This is a dark lens (not fast)
      4. Its value to an ordinary person in the days of the USSR could seem sky-high
      5. These are not industrial, helios, jupiters
      I think now it will be easier to understand. Good luck to all.

  • Oleg

    hmm ... can Mir-41?

    • Arkady Shapoval

      This is not MIR-41, and even if it were him, I would not have counted the victory due to non-compliance with the terms of the action.

  • Oleg

    Clear. We will wait for an answer.

  • Siberian

    Tele-N 200mm 3.5
    Blur completely at 200mm. The price in Soviet times is just awful, something more than 200 rubles. The number of petals 8 on the bokeh is quite similar.

  • alenfeeling

    dark Soviet fixed focal, falling in the range of 50-110mm, with a price in the Soviet era at 245 rubles., with mdf 0,4m, MIR-3 3.5 / 66 is included.
    Incidentally, the world-26 and world-38 and world-41 fall into this category.
    not an easy task) here you need to know all Soviet optics well))

    • Arkady Shapoval

      Well, congratulations to the winner. I will contact you via e-mail.

      • Vasil

        Dorechі chuyka didn’t make up the middle-format assets (: From yakbi I heard more than that, should you look around for the whole asset?

        • Arkady Shapoval

          Review already exists https://radojuva.com.ua/2012/09/obzor-mir-3v-3-5-65mm/

        • Vasil

          I have already read, dyakuyu (: Amusingly, I thought that I didn’t give infinity on the current czf, but “... with the adapter KP-88 \ N (Salute-Nikon) with the ability to focus on infinity ...” still give ( :

    • Vasil

      Oce I rosumuy a chuyka in people (: Вітаю перемотжця (:

  • PSTD

    world 3. very well suited to the already known tips, really expensive at that time, because it was created for medium format cameras. 6 diaphragm blades, not friendly with backlight. MDF 0.4m, which means there will be a small grip. the focal length on the fx camera will be similar ... I will answer World 3 (since the number of attempts is unlimited)

  • PSTD

    Damn, I wrote a message for a long time)))))

    • Arkady Shapoval

      Nothing, there will be more stocks.

  • alenfeeling

    himself in shock!)

    • Vasil

      It’s just the same thing, they all thought that they should say Leica Noctilux-M 50 mm 1: 0.95 ASPH, and then you should.

  • Alexander

    100 mm Nikkor :)

  • Eugene

    if I'm not mistaken, this is a kaleinar 3 150 by 2,8 ... ... only in case of victory I don't need the zenith ... ... long ago I got rid of them back in Soviet times, even then I was shooting only either practice or cues 19 ... ..., as regards optics , Helios44 is clearly an outsider, in any case I think so, I have a Tessar50, there are fifty rubles more, so I have something to compare with, I just want to try to participate ... ... just like that, and I bow to you Arkady for your thoughts, it's just great ... .. best regards Evgeniy

  • sinitsa

    In my opinion, it could very well be Helios 44

  • twin

    my world 20 gives similar photos, if the cat. and holds the glare of the sun, but the edges of the general plan…. but I think it's a wide angle ... sorry if I was stupid, I recently took pictures :)

  • Leonid

    You well done, even by reading the answers, you can master photo art. I am an amateur, so I can only guess the cat’s nickname. :-)
    Competition winners - you are great

  • Vasya

    Really sharp bastard!

  • Sergei

    Good.

  • Sergei

    World 3B 65 / 3,5

  • Ilya

    This is tair 33

  • DimDimych

    This is Jupiter 37A F3.5 At least the bokeh pattern is similar.

    • DimDimych

      Oh, there is already a winner. Not jupiter)
