    I wanted to ask (maybe readers, colleagues) how he compares to Jupiter-36B. The focal length is similar but what is the resolution. Which lens is preferred. Personally, I did not use more than 50 and 80mm on my Kiev-60. Surely people have experience with these "giants". There are also similar lenses from Pentacon and Meyer - optician. The last one I saw and held in my hands. I wanted to buy it (after all, then I was still living in Vladivostok), it would be interesting to look for interesting shots across the sea with such a gun. But the seller asked for a lot, although there was a detachment of the lens, I thought of asking for a discount. Once upon a time I read different opinions, but I don’t remember that long ago. It seems like Jupiter is even heavier because of the luminosity that is brighter in the pattern, the resolution ...

      According to Lens club:

      Tair 33
      Resolution center / edge: at least 25/18 lines / mm.
      Light transmission coefficient - not less than 0.85

      Jupiter 36b
      Resolution (center / edge): at least 45/25 lines / mm.

        Yeah thanks. It turns out Jupiter 36B abruptly. Strange, the lenses are old and tested, but in the whole huge (former USSR) no one even compared them. Apparently this is not at all relevant. I somehow tried in 2001 to do such a test. I invited friends with wardrobe trunks, poured, talked, and here I was on one tape, pulling out and inserting again, if someone else's system, conducted a test of 8-10 lenses from telly to wide. I wrote down the sequence on paper, and they had to be scanned. And then dragged on with this, I began to move, and there is nothing to it. Then the figure came and said that the old lenses are not at all suitable for the numbers, others are telecentric, well, I abandoned that test. The film is in one place and the paper is marked somewhere in the archive (not scanned). But so I realized something by printing 15 × 21 photos, nor is it all true.
        So: the zoom from Pentax 80-320 hopelessly lost the zoom from Olympus 65-210 (or I don’t remember 200) especially at long focus. Strange, long-focusers are worse at the end, but Zuika doesn’t, and vice versa. Then the Tokina 28-85 RMC f / 4 wagon turned out to be a good one, and the Tokina 20-35 / 3,5-4,5 is mediocre with a kind of simple pattern. Sigma 28mm and 24mm (RF) are different, the latter is very sharp. At what sharpness is needle-like to the smallest detail. The dark zoom from Pentax AF 28-105 / 4-5.6 was very good, I won a bit over my Pentax 35-70 / 4.
        There were more, I don’t remember. Then I got acquainted with the tests of staff members that were already conducted by a professional in this area. Of course, I do not mean photographers, this fraternity of self-taught and amateur in our country. There was a professor in this area from the defense industry (ship equipment). There is a film scanner and everything else. So the undisputed leader was Zuiko 50mm / 1,4, then Pentax AF / 1,4 then zess / 1,4. Canon FD from the very first, followed by m FD more recent releases two copies. for something else Nicon af / 1,4 would be the last. Then I was impressed with this test, seeing how carefully everything was sorted out, not every magazine can do that. In the same year, I bought Olympus with this staffer at a very bargain price. In Vladivostok, then (90s) every miracle could have happened, my friend street photographer (Seryoga Kapchenyi) was brought with a Zuiko 85/2 lens by car dealers, take this crap, they found it useful in the hood.
        It’s not easy for a zoo either, mine had 7 digits in serial. room and 1.4 sharpness is not worse than 4 !!!!
        I then photographed on slides in the Hermitage, music by Pushkin and others for my teaching work (diaphragm 1.4 -2,8). So with the photo from my hand everything turned out very sharply.
        Excuse me saying a lot….

    Hello. I want to ask, Today they brought me such a TAIR3 lens. But it is screwed to some thing. like a long pistol, and there is even a trigger. and this thing has a photo sniper on it. I have a Nikon D 90 camera. I attached it, the photos are obtained, but it is impossible to connect. As far as I understand, an adapter is needed, but are there such, and on the basis of this "pistol" there is a little thing on which, like a tripod, you need to screw the camera, and now it seems to me that the lens almost converges with the camera, but there a lot of cool things, maybe you can raise the lens a little. Tell me what this "pistol" is for. and is it worth bothering with the lens? I like blur very much Thank you.

      This is a photo sniper kit made for the Zenith camera of a special modification. It can also be adapted to work with modern ones, but the trigger can be remade for communication with the remote shutter release. A mechanical drive, of course, cannot be realized.

        Rodion, thank you very much for the quick reply. I already read something, it unscrewed the gun. So, I can’t adapt it through the adapter to Nikon? And then I already ordered the adapter.

        The M42 to Nikon adapter will work, but mediocre.
        Since a lens will be added to compensate for the difference in working distance.
        Which will degrade the quality of the picture.
        Therefore, I advise you to find a replacement adapter KP-A / N on the tail of the lens instead of an adapter.
        It does not have a lens, and the quality of the optics will not suffer.

    Great lens! I took it as the final one in the collection of glasses for Kyiv-88. In fact, it turned out to be quite a working glass on the FF figure (Nikon D-700) sharp with an open, with beautiful bokeh.

    Grateful, of course.
    Where can I get a manual for this lens.
    Or scan, maybe someone will be honored at the request.
    Thank you.
