I’ve been a subscriber of wonderful guys from Corridor crewwhich on their main channel Corridor upload interesting videos, which they themselves shoot and produce. Of their latest popular creations, this is a sketch on Boston Dynamics и GTA. But recently I found out that a small parody of John Wick (Snowy John Wick) the guys shot exclusively on Soviet photographic lenses, their list under cat, and Blackmagic Pocket 4K.
For this video guys from Corridor crew The following lenses were used:
- MC MIR-20M 3,5 / 20
- Mir-10A 3,5 / 28
- Helios-44-2 2/58
- Jupiter-9 2/85
- Jupiter-11A 4 / 135

Are Helios and Worlds and Jupiter in the Americos still in work? can not be/!
Elektogon, Biotar and Zonnar you want to say? Well, so far. In the budget segment.
No, he said helios, worlds and jupiters. You have something with eyesight.
Many “filmmakers” use old lenses. Autofocus in the video works poorly, if you take Panasonic, but on black magic it doesn't work at all ...
+ The diaphragm is smooth, it also costs a lot.
And the prices for fixes on mikra are just sky-high. So we shoot as it is)))
I also use c-mount lenses. Who 4k does not remove it is just a mast hef)))
I also noticed on Panasonic that it cannot focus on what it needs, or tries to refocus again. It seems to help if you specify the focus point on the touch screen. You can also switch to “Auto focus single”, then you can also focus on the subject when shooting by touching the screen. At the same time, spontaneous refocusing will not interfere with the video.
The interesting thing about older lenses is that video does not need such a high resolution lens as it does for photography. Even 4K is about 8 megapixels. However, older lenses have weaker contrast, side / backlight resistance and often not very good condition due to the age of the lens.
Explain what is “under the cut” and is it really impossible to indicate it in human language, and not in some thug jargon ...?
Your finger should be poked into the rodent and open to open the full text of Arkadiev, otherwise it is forbidden to put many letters on the verb.
So.
In this case, under the cut - under the cap / title cut
Thank you, pleased! %)))))
“Under the cut” - under the influence of a special herb growing in Somalia ;-)))
well, there are not so many uneducated schoolchildren who do not know the word "kat"
Here, I noticed, on the contrary, there are too many educated people who have just picked up foreign words, but, as serious amateur photographers, have a zero rating. Everyone tries to rise in what he can ...
Sir Lindbergh, you forgot to log in
We need to offer this idea to the guys from Universal, Paramaunt and 20th Century FOX, otherwise they feed all hucksters from Kenon, Zeiss and others)))
Serious uncles feed Angenieux, Cooke and Leica
On the McLaren car in Formula 1, Soviet bearings of 1973 were used ... :)
Aha, and on Helios, Miras and Jupiters - stolen Zeiss schemes of the 30s - 40s. Be less driven by your former visibility.
Yes, and precision bearings on the captured equipment, which is still in factories.
less "drive" stolen and trophy ... and you will be happy :)
Each country has different laws, why all of a sudden have to and are obliged to live according to the laws of the bourgeoisie? Who mercilessly exploit ordinary people: engineers, artists, etc. And then steal from ordinary people, screwing up interest on what they did not create? The whole world was put directly on the counter ...
There, ordinary people can easily buy a camera - two for a couple of thousand dollars, and not just a camera. And in the CIS and similar countries can only Helios for 20 bucks. That's all greatness. If everything was so great, then why is there not a single sprout of continuation of this greatness? And because everything was only on paper, all progress for mass consumption was copied from Japanese and Western technologies. We were even taught at the university how to “correctly” copy Western technology on our element base
Japanese technology - laughed
Insanity grew stronger ...
CAPITALISM is a community of formally free people, in which laws and ideology allow some people to parasitize at the expense of others.
You did not study history well. Everything was received through reparations. Factories, documentation, equipment and materials for manufacturing, which were enough for the production of lenses until the early 50s. Labor resources - local. Everything is in accordance with international law.
This does not negate the fact that they have not gone further than this. There were no developments except for a pair of lenses. So they used it for 50 years until they got stuck in the holes and the world went forward in that time
They do not learn anything, they continue to copy - the last zenith based on the watering can is a good example of this.
The Zenith carcass was developed jointly with Leica - no one hides it, but the objective is a Russian development.
It seems that this is Lake, and not joint development. Special party with a different design. Lens yes
Joint? What did they develop there? Though maybe your menu? Oh no, just a label
they ... what have you learned?
Where has your world gone? which way forward?
Period is the latest military-industrial complex systems. And there you have both optical engineering and microelectronics - all their own and of the highest class.
Amer hypersound of 15 years will still make the whole world, if not stolen from us.
He opened the news about Severodvinsk, yawned, closed the news.
Rockets have already been stolen on the new engine and reusable stages, the trampolines have been updated, and hypersound will also be reached.
Oleg, look wider and deeper. First, ask the question: did we have a photographic industry? Answer: No, it did not exist in principle. What actually happened was just a few DEPARTMENTS UNDER THE MINOBORONPROM ... a kind of proving ground ... therefore, what kind of demand could there be?
let's also remember about buttons toilet paper locks lightning = engineering thought for everyone follows the same path ... and no one disputes the primacy of optical systems ...…………….
And what about the past or present greatness to you? We won ... and borrowed. Have you stolen something? What are you mad about? Take the pot off your head!
Greatness in "glasses" or what?
Except how do you spoil the air, what did you invent in your life?
Yeah, and Kalashnikov copied from the German Sturmgever go. We have heard such fables ... Better ask at your leisure who was the designer of American missiles after the war.
Yeah. And who has been flying these FAA practically unchanged for how many years, incidentally telling how Mask will not succeed.
The question is not who took from whom. Krylov translated La Fontaine's fables, and he translated Aesop's. The question is whether anyone has developed something of their own. Canon and Nikon also started with copying. Like Soviet optics. Where was Canon with Nikon in the 70s and 80s and who riveted the Helios?
Here, as if about the optics forum. For optics and write
What year?
Arkady, can I clean the discussion from trolls and flooding?
Cool vidos, the guys on the knee make a blockbuster with a budget of a couple of millions.
With a robot in general offset! If it were not for the scenes with chroma key, I would not distinguish from reality
That's very symptomatic, by the way. The news is about how a good video was shot on old Soviet lenses. Conclusions of a normal person:
1. The old technique is still suitable, especially for shooting video. You can increase the image contrast programmatically, a certain blur and soft video does not harm, color correction works wonders.
2. Well done guys, it’s not in vain that they use old movie lenses when shooting modern films (Abrams has such a feature).
Conclusions of an abnormal person:
Flaccidity! Amer! The imperialist exploiters! Let's kick our ass! We can still!
Ugh.
mmya .. what kind of lenses, such and vidoe.
And this is our Kuzenka mad with fat. Will rage and bainki will go ...

It is not clear why such a violent reaction.
In business, the result and cost minimization are important.
If you need to transport a couple of bags of potatoes, you can do this on a cart by renting it from Grandfather Washi for a bottle, you can buy a Honda cr-v. The costs are different, the comfort is different, the result is the same.
If you do not need to carry potatoes, the cart, although cheap, can be useless.

Here, some praise everything Western and humiliate the achievements of the USSR. In the country, such lenses were created and are being created, which are not and did not exist in the West. Objectives for satellites, in Tajikistan there is an object "Shtora", which, with the help of Russian and Soviet lenses, tracks satellites and spaceships. And probably by creating such lenses for such objects, lenses for cameras were also created.
Nice try, but no. Or could you afford a personal companion?
I don't think the manufacturers of satellite tracking lenses were concerned about accurate color reproduction, for example. So for sure - by.
Fu-Fu-Fu leftism smelled. Here is a photo of discussion and not excavation of a scoop corpse.
Any corpse nervously smokes on the sidelines as a libertoy ...
Soviet lenses are not only used to create modern films with special effects, but they also lead to extraordinary excitement of some citizens (perhaps of a neighboring state), causing them to profuse word separation with brown substance.
Well, those sitting here, for the most part, do not even remotely imagine the possibilities of the USSR industry, which they call a "scoop", and initially cameras and lenses were produced according to drawings exported from Germany, but the United States did not disdain the same. And Japan generally began its journey by copying everything, China still steals and copies other people's ideas. There was an industry and in Kiev they produced cameras and lenses, until they broke both the plant and the research institute, LOMO is still working in St. Petersburg, but it is focused on the military industry. As for the satellites, they have always produced top-class lenses. And in terms of sharpness and color rendering. The lenses were removed for both civilian life and intelligence.
Present.
He worked for ZiL and for FSUE NPO Mashinostroyeniya (Akademik Chelomei rockets).
Briefly, gray, longing, technological backwardness FOREVER and beggarly salaries.
Come on, uncle, the janitors were not supposed to know about secret developments.
Are you the janitors to yourself?
I think yes. There are no high technologies in defense. In the 90s, PCs weren't everywhere. In the 90s, they began to appear on pirated windows, later they began to take from licensed ones. Hard workers in 100, and zero drank and stole. There are no special technologies. Well, the laser cutting was imported. Everything good and the most modern is imported. When I worked at ZiL it came to ridiculousness - the German trophy (!!!) presses worked quieter and cleaner than the Soviet ones. Near the Soviet workers in oil from head to foot. THOSE. Here is this saying - hands in oil F in soap, we work at ZIL, it is 90% honest. Soldiers, Moldovans and students worked at ZiL from the end of the XNUMXs until closing. They paid little money and were always detained. A huge territory in ZiL was dirty with rusty scrap metal. And it is still being cleaned.
If we talk about current developments, then these are the doped developments of the late USSR. In 90 there was no time for development - people ran to make money in commerce. There are pensioners and students who are mowing down from the army. Something began to move or depict activity in the late XNUMXs. Something like this.
The level of equipment reflects the culture, mentality and development of the country's engineering thought. I have seen the level of Soviet and Russian equipment. Including the one that works in the food industry. It cannot be compared to Italian, French, German and American, or Japanese. It's just a different AGE. We have 19-20 centuries, and they have 21. But there is one BUT - if imported equipment gets up in Muhosransk, the whole plant gets up. If ours gets up, they revive him on his knee overnight. Something like this.
Achromats were placed on the satellites. Will you continue to talk about the “color rendition”?
This is for a wide range of consumption and is not interesting. It is important for me which lens I can attach to my camera, and not which one was made for the satellite. If all technologies are classified and do not go into mass production, then there’s no sense in them 0
This is generally a difficult case, since the character is clearly not in the subject regarding the method of obtaining color images from satellite photos. Everyone knows that Soviet optical glass was of lower quality than German, so the schemes of Zeiss lenses had to be recalculated (to increase the thickness of the lenses, etc.) For the photo market, they did not know how to cook high-quality glass, but for satellites they learned very sharply ...
Yeah ... and there was no sex.
Yeah ... and sex was not - everyone knows.
Is it nothing that Soviet glass had a higher refractive index and was counted just the same to reduce the thickness of the glasses? From Zeiss there were only schemes that were used in the world by everyone who was not lazy, including Canon and Nikon.
By the way, I have a Nikon zonar, in which the thickness of the lenses is several centimeters. Why don't you call him stolen and slop?
What kind of mania to equate the Soviet from slop? Do you equate yourself and your parents with sucks?
Because Canon is now patenting the zoom 50-80 / 1.1, and Zenith hangs his label on the Watering Can according to the old habit.
Well, yes, and this type of Watering can never did, selling someone else's under his own label?
Yesterday I watched several videos on the first nuclear tests. Just a couple of facts in a piggy bank.
When testing the first US atomic bomb in Nevada, the decay products dispersed over a large area and some of them fell in the form of precipitation. These sediments fell into the river, from which Kodak took water to develop the film. The entire batch of film that day (or the next, it doesn’t matter) turned out to be illuminated - covered with many white dots. After that, the US government warned film manufacturers in advance of the tests to prepare. In order not to sue the capitalists, you say. But yes, capitalists can sue their sick government.
Another example is when the USSR began to sculpt its atomic bomb on stolen blueprints (there was one idiot in Los Alamos, the commute was unfinished), with the help of hundreds of German physicists and engineers and on captured uranium, mercury was needed for some process. A lot of mercury. Why what? For two years, the USSR stopped selling mercury thermometers.
Why aren't you in America yet? You like it there. Or are they not needed there? Not everything is so rosy there. The films did not tell how many soldiers were irradiated during the tests, sitting in the trenches near the epicenter of the explosions? There, of course, everything is fine, but a person is valued even less than in a “scoop”. The dollar rules there, and without it you have no rights.
There is a visa, there is a proposal, there is no desire. I prefer to build something in my own country. Well, or at least save her from the pathetic legacy and scoop myths.
About rights ... It is strange to hear something about this from a person from places where there are no dollars or rights.
So where am I from?
Poor legacy? Well, destroy EVERYTHING Soviet - houses, roads, factories, power plants, etc. What's left then? Weak?
Bring back millions of lives and you can take back factories and power plants. The basis which was built by the Americans for the money from the sale of grain and confiscated gold.
Good excuse. What hinders - a bad legacy, what is needed - let it be. Hypocrisy. As a result, you remove only monuments and emblems, using the entire Soviet heritage in all spheres. By the fact that it is weak to admit the truth.
In all, according to that. Hypocrisy.
Long live Soviet education, the most Soviet education in the world!
Houses, factories and power plants did not present a scoop. He gave them as a handout, so as not to rest, at the cost of millions of lives, tens of thousands of fucking useless tanks and thousands of nuclear charges. Bonus everything went as a burp of the military-industrial complex. Oak lenses on old schemes, kapron from parachutes for nuclear bombs, nylon from a string of missile guidance systems and so on. They even flew into space on a rocket to deliver a thermonuclear charge.
Scoop left us with Chernobyl - do not want to pick it up? Millions of pensioners with a joint system who need to be fed - do not want them? And a bunch of heads with substance inside. They would also be nice.
Everything is clear, especially about the substance instead of your brain. Until now, what exactly have you been cheated on and what should you? You yourself lost what you had without creating a new one in almost 30 years.
What's the new nuclear rocket?
I’m from another country.
So take care of your other country.
Think at your leisure, if there is anything, what would be if the USSR hadn’t had nuclear weapons? Remember Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Remove the pan and stop jumping!
It is a pity that the USSR did not have its Hiroshima and Nagasaki. It seems like nothing now, Japan, normally lives like that.
You had one. How is life normally?
The Soviet Union existed for 74 years, your state is already independent for 28 years - almost half of the USSR. But you keep complaining about the scoop. Will it take 100 years and you, too, will whine about him?
So you did not go anywhere, unfortunately.
“Although the experienced“ Helios-1 ”50/2 was ready back in 1937, Soviet designers fought an unequal battle with low-quality optical glass of domestic production ... The legendary“ Helios-40 ”85 / 1.5 became the first serial“ Helios ”. The unpleasant differences between the Soviet optical glass and the original D.S. Volosov tried to compensate with a large focal length, increased thickness of the lenses and the air gaps between them ”.
Still the tsarist time would be remembered. And where in the 37 captured equipment and glass?
You don't even know that the patents for optical circuits were acquired before the war. In general, ignorance is an indispensable attribute of the defenders of the “Soviet”. One talks about the "Curtain", which is actually "Window" and the color rendering of satellite lenses, the other - about the thinning of the lenses when converted to Soviet glass ... Helios-40 85 mm f / 1.5, for information, began to be produced in 1957.
It is very convenient to choose suitable periods for comparison from the Soviet period. And what about the last Helios? To me, the defenders of the Western remind the heroes of the Hipsters - they themselves are soviet, and they pray for the Western. And Westerners just take and use what they like, albeit soviet. And don't bother making idols.
It makes no difference to me - Soviet, German or Japanese. He ate Helios and Zenitars back in the 80s. Thanks, fed up. It's one thing when there is no choice, it is another thing to suffer from masochism or a toad today.
What is the difference between modern non-autofocus lenses? The same masochism. For photos - I agree, autofocus is much more convenient. For video - not much, but the prices are much lower.
And as always: people who consider themselves to be educated and smart pour mud on a scoop, forgetting that they got education in this very scoop, and even for free.
My education is solely my own merit and it does not stop even for a minute today. As for any other modern person, by the way.
The fact is that not only autofocus differs. Several years ago I decided to take a walk with Zenitar 50 \ 1.7 out of old memory. And every time, analyzing the catch, I thought - if I could shoot it with a decent lens. In the end, I gave up - life is too short to be amused in this way.
Let there be hype!
yes, specific hype ... let it be)
That's interesting, but Xiomi does not use Soviet objects for an hour. What else can you allow 108MP.
What is the problem? Blow up the power plants built in Ukraine by the damned scoop, the remnants of the factories you didn’t build new, take out the shovels with which you dug the Black Sea and go ahead to build knanls all over the world. They called to the USA, go and there is something to dig or dig, hard workers are needed there. Well and then. You entrepreneurial people invented the wheel, gave birth to Christ, raised Macedon, the whole world came from you and you should be carried on your hands and loved around the world for this. Yes, and about the atomic bomb. It’s not enough to steal drawings or an idea, you need to create production, technology, and these are tons of drawings and you can’t carry them away in your pocket. The Germans have Russian rocket engines, but they cannot recreate them.
They are well aware that they will not be able to do at least the same afterwards, not to mention the best. They scold the Soviet military-industrial complex, but at the same time they are among the top ten arms sellers in the world. Again forgetting that they are selling the repainted scoop legacy. Again, what did Arsat invent their new? Zenitar is at least trying to do something new as he can.
From the defense we got crumbs, and after the collapse, almost nothing at all.
The Zenitar 50/2 on my old D50 hardly allows, I'm not talking about focusing. Yes, excellent bokeh but nothing more. I use it only for bokeh. If the Krasnogorsk residents do not improve optics, by permission, and do not enter autofocus, then the fate of Arsat will be theirs.
Soviet Helios 81N I have shown a better resolution than Nikon 50 / 1.8G, in the open. But due to the lack of autofocus, it often lies on a shelf. I also hold only because of the bokeh.
How many false pathos. If a plant was built in the USSR, then it must do the same for decades. What cars, what lenses. For the State Planning Commission so intended and what it matters to him that the world is modernizing too quickly. And now what to do with these plants? And who built them? Yes, local and built, well, not without help, of course, with General state money. You can argue for a long time and pointless.
Let's talk about optics and megapixels, 4k is not quite and relevant anymore.
I think 8k (32Mp) the Soviet will not pull, the owners of many modern f / a confirm.
If the cameras had a medium format matrix, then the corresponding lenses could pull.
But given the recent invention, perhaps soon we will call all current excellent lenses garbage.
Plant them. Chkalova is now doing su34. And it exists from the 40s. Do you seriously say that in the year 45 he sent jet bombers to the front, with bearings pointed on a captured German machine?
"There is a visa, there are proposals, there is no desire." (Novel). Something familiar, somewhere I've already heard it. And he remembered: "... there they seduced the queen ..."
I know where these guys got Soviet optics from.
In Melitopol, there’s a lad Gadim Vadim, he adapts Soviet photographic lenses to cinema requirements.
https://ironglassadapters.com/product/set-6-lens-for-pl-20-mm-f3-5-28-mm-f3-5-37-mm-f2-8-58-mm-f2-85-mm-f2-135-mm-f2-8/
And sells these kits on ebay, etc.
About $ 2000 is all a pleasure.
Given the whole context above, I already grunted.
There's a bottle, citizen. Will you sit down? As accepted.
People, how tired of this “holy wars” about the scoop and everything else…. I am an amateur photographer, I shoot with an old canon eos 40d and you can laugh about it like frenzied. But I do not have the opportunity to carve out money from the family budget for an autofocus high-aperture fix from canon (I'm not talking about half a half of 1,8), but the Soviet zenitar 50 / 1,7 could afford, which is like an elephant happy after the well-known water procedures. No doubt, branded fixes are better, but let's compare the price tags. In addition, I just really like shooting with manual lenses, they teach you to shoot thoughtfully, and not throw a couple of thousand frames per shot.
Pouring shit on a scoop is stupid and insane, this is exactly the case with comrades praising America. You need to proceed from your real conditions and capabilities. To agree on the possibilities and wishes, and not to curse the historical heritage of a great country. It is a pity that Arkady did not stop offtopic :-( Call to all pi $ doballs - go to} {er with your politics! Here people gathered not about politics, but about photography.
America is not praised here, Japan is praised here. Well, maybe a little Germany. America does not release lenses. Humor.
How did it all start? Americans are stupid, they cannot do without our sluggish lenses.
You honestly acknowledge - a budget solution. Yes, niche, budget. After the alteration (as it turned out) is suitable for shooting video. You can stop there.
The 40D is a decent camera. One of the best Canon crop. But the bundle 40D + Zenitar 50 \ 1.7 is a bad bundle. I shot it, I know: the output is dirty and unnatural color, rough bokeh. Adding 20-30 dollars to the price of Zenitar is quite possible to get a good manual fifty dollars with pure color and beautiful bokeh.
I confirm that Zenitar-M 1.7 is an excellent lens, one of the best in its segment.
Photos from the zenith are fully online.
Liars who defame decent glass - shouldn't you take a walk in ZhO ..
By the way, I really do not like this passage about "thoughtful shooting" which has set the teeth on edge. Autofocus is convenient. If you don't like it, you can turn it off, but adding it will be more difficult.
Thoughtful shooting does not at all deny the convenience of a screen to see what you shot, autofocus, self-timer, built-in exposure meter and other amenities. In the end, I can devote more time to the frame itself, rather than to constant focus exercises.
Zenitar, perhaps, is more interesting in design - the Canon fifty-kopeck piece is rather bland. But the drawing is a bokeh, twigs, flowers and so on. Photography is some kind of idea, some kind of plot, some kind of message. If this is not a technical photo, of course. "Drawing" is just one of the tools, it cannot be the goal and the main content of the photo. There is all this in photography - the technique is not important. If this is not the case, the technique will not help.
Autofocus is convenient, no doubt about it. I said right away about the price tag, I think all other comments are not very appropriate. Mers AMG is undoubtedly better than Lada Kalina, but blinnafig, the price tag is nafigblin !!! Maybe here, too, open a branch of the “holy war” about crops and fullframes? It was about the Soviet legacy. Personally, my opinion was formed a long time ago, and I see no reason to change it. There were all kinds of Soviet optics, including very good ones. The fact is that the Japanese and the Germans had a very serious material base to carry out R&D. Our engineers did miracles in the conditions that were then. It was about the survival of the country as such, it was not very fat. All and sundry, but not the USSR, profited from the Second World War. Our country just suffered the most, and deservedly used the crumbs that we managed to take away from the aggressors, I note - rightfully taken away as compensation for damage. In the conditions of a total lack of funds for the development of civilian industry, engineers performed a labor and scientific feat, developing such wonderful lenses, in those terrible conditions. The civil sphere developed on a leftover basis, since it was necessary to develop the defense industry. I suggest recalling a nursery rhyme by B. Zakhoder about a hedgehog.
“Why are you Hedgehog so prickly?”
- This is just in case:
Do you know who my neighbors are?
Foxes, wolves and bears!
What other comments are needed, I invite everyone present to refresh their memory of the course of school history of the USSR and Russia ... everything is understandable and extremely clear.
In the USSR, after all, there were good lenses. The fact that the bourgeoisie uses them to produce such good videos is very gratifying for me, as a person who was born and raised in a great country. But I don’t pull my hair or wring my hands in sad nostalgic convulsions. Please come down to earth and stop comparing the eye and the heel. The lenses were objectively good, sorry for the pun. For those pennies that they cost then and are now, they are Very good !!! and the video of the corridors proves it.
About the niche nature of this budget solution, etc. and so on, I suggest that it doesn't hurt to stretch out, it's understandable. These guys are enthusiasts. It is these enthusiasts who drive technological progress. They proved to all the docks from the film and photo industry that you don't need to have up to} {a lot of American money for optics to make something very interesting and very high quality !!! Why is everyone silent about the fact that the Chinese from Yongnuo copy other people's developments and make tolerable autofocus lenses for reasonable money for a large number of amateur photographers? And why is everyone yelling about the evil USSR, which basely used the developments of Nazi Germany, which, in turn, exported even black soil from the occupied territories? You, my friend, have studied the history of your native country very mediocre !!! Sorry for the political retreat. Let's get back to Soviet lenses ... CM video. SM Internet for photos and videos taken with Soviet lenses. See the reviews on this resource.
For sim, I’ll finish. Good to all!
Bravo!
The genre of orphan songs enjoys continued popularity in the territory of the former USSR.
Dementia praecox. I congratulate you, patient. The clinical picture on the face - categorical delirium. Some songs are heard ...
How, how. But I couldn't touch her because of her small stature ...
Well, small growth is like I don't have 500 bucks for a used 50 \ 1.4 USM ...

> All and sundry, but not the USSR, profited from the Second World War.
The Second World War began in September from 1939 with the mutual (I repeat, MUTUAL) division of Poland between the USSR and Germany. It ended in September 1945 with the defeat of Japan, with which the USSR had a non-aggression pact and which Japan strictly adhered to, which allowed the USSR to distract divisions from the East bypassing Germany.
You forgot about the Soviet-Finnish war and the annexation of the Baltic states, initiated by the USSR.
These are not fictitious facts, this is a very uncomfortable reality, which for some reason is very beautifully ignored, and instead, fairy tales about a poor sheep surrounded by wolves slip in.
Well then, remember the non-aggression pact between Poland and Germany, signed before the one you mentioned, which the Poles have successfully forgotten. Well, what lands did Poland get after the war, and to whom the Polish ones. For some reason, inconvenient facts are also hushed up by the western side. And Japan is also so kind and fluffy after rewriting history. Half of Asia was rotten out of the kindness of soul ...
And by the way, the “partition” of Poland looks different from different angles. Any country at that time was the end, whether the USSR would intervene or not.
Roman, learn history. And, finally, if you agree to take advantage of the invitation to America, leave this “shitty” post-Soviet space forever. Throwing poop will be more fun for you from across the ocean. Request - take Andrey T. with you, otherwise he is dreaming of everything ... some orphan songs ...
No, I am gathering arguments to use them in the near future, when some corpse will have to be divided. If he, by that time, is not finally infected with the products of national radioactive decay.
Are you going to be a jackal? Do not wait!
Powerful, but you can't convince the stoned ones. Opposition to everything Soviet is their ideology. For them, the USSR has no pluses, only minuses.
They are stoned. Nobody pays attention to the most important plus of the Soviet Union - the most smoothed national question. In my childhood it was important how you play football and fight for your friends, not your nationality. People of many nationalities and religions lived in our yard. And everyone congratulated each other on holidays, including religious ones (not only Orthodox). Nobody muddied the common culture. And it was not the made political correctness with which the bourgeois are trying to infect us. It was respect. And stubborn persistence in the outpouring of fecal masses on their history is a psychiatric diagnosis, or maybe just a form of moral terrorism, against the background of the same diagnosis.
They are stuck with their new "values". The ridge is dearer to them.

Yes, autofocus is convenient. But when you look at how many blunders it is, it is not clear whose fault. I remember at Zenith the microraster and Doden wedges, a wonderful thing. Maybe slower than the electro-mechanical one, but it was always very accurate. I was more bothered by exposure accuracy, and focusing was not a problem at all. For older lenses, this is the simplest solution to the problem. The only problem is the focusing screen. I tried to put on my Nikon, from the same Zenit-312m. But in it, the lens is also solidly made, which led to a significant displacement. So I will search from old models or order. And the reasons are commonplace. Firstly, the high cost of high-quality Japanese lenses for amateurs who do not make money from photography. Secondly, a simple curiosity: "but how does the legend that we have made take off." And in general, we are not particularly disappointed.
I put a Zenith screen on the D3200 - the lens does not interfere, it should look outward. But in poor light, the wedges quickly turn black, and then the raster. Well, and a little metering of the exposure with them twisted.

The guys, of course, are great, but they would be more surprised if the carcass was used, for example, "Pioneer", or the like. Otherwise, they would have taken an iPhone, and it might have turned out no worse 😉
