Posted - Apr 04 2023 : 05:07:02 AM Hello,
making some order in the cabinet, I've re-found a lens arrived many years ago along with my Kiev-10 camera.
It is very compact, heavy and well-built. It bears the serial number 71026.
Looking through the lens once mounted it on the camera, it gives a "yellowish" vision, as expected from lenses with lanthanium glass elements, like the well-known Pancolar f:1,4 of the Pentacon Super.
The diaphragm transmission is a little sticky, due to the old lubricants, but I will send it to be fixed.
Does anyone be so kind to give me more info re. this lens?
All the best,
Enzo

Yes, the Rubin-1 is the well-known soviet zoom inspired by the Voigtländer Zoomar, that equipped the leaf-sutter Zenit.
This Rubin-2A is a little smaller than the well-known Jupiter-11 4/135 Avtomat with Kiev-10/15 mount.
Attached, some pictures of the lens itself and attached to my Kiev-15TEE
