                       Hi,
  Someone has never seen this lens before, so I post an image FYI. This is a sharp and contrasty lens for a mirror lens, and it is quite compact, and weighs only 470 grams.
  Kind Regards,
  Zhang  http://www.ussrphoto.com/UserContent/DSCN2773.JPG

                       Zhang, thank you! You should probably post these kind of images to wiki and not into forums because they will get lost here.
  thank you! Vlad |

                       Thank you very much Zhang! I am only trying to preserve and catalog as much information presented by members as possible because there are a lot of interesting pieces posted into forums ONLY and then almost impossible to find in the future since they are not cataloged.

                      |  Lately most lenses from FSU have universal mount and some came with 2 or more adapters to fit many types of camera. So this lens probably fitted with M42 adapter without modification. I have Rubinar this way. |

                       You are right. The picture on the manual showed a K mountlens. The lens was made in Nov.3rd,1994, but the inspector signed on August 30th, 1999.It is very strange. Why it took so long for the lens to leave the factory?

                      |  Rubinar manuals say that they were manufactured in M42 and K mount so neither is in any way unusual. "A" lenses had what is actually a "T" mount so could take any commercial T adapter. However the soviets only supplied m39(rare) M42, and N adapters and maybe K adapters which I have never seen! |

                       Here is an image of the logo. I don't think I have seen it before. BTW, I have seen a few of these, and all in M42 mount. Perhaps the factory modefied the mount before delivery?  http://www.ussrphoto.com/UserContent/DSCN2787.JPG
