some photos made with different russian lenses

Recently I tested several russian lenses in order to put them on ebay, here some photos:
Zenitar ME1 2/50 + Zenit 18


Zenitar ME1 2/50 + Zenit 18


Jupiter 3 1,7/50 + Sony Nex5


Jupiter 6 2,8/180 + Sony Nex5


Jupiter 9 2,8/85 SLR version + Sony Nex5


Jupiter 9 2,8/85 rangefinder version + Sony Nex5


Rubinar 8/500 +Sony Nex5

Very interesting photos which show the differences between lenses... The "swirling" bokeh of the Jupiter 3 is perfect! I am surprised by the "square" one of the Zenitar 2/50 (2nd photo). The results of the Jupiter 6 (180mm) seem fabulous...

Thanks, rkaipov!

Interesting test with all these lenses.

Hi, I frequently use Russian and East German Zeiss M42 lenses on my Canon EOS and have had results almost indistinguishable from the Canon lens. Where else can you get a lens that will perform well at f:/2.8 for under Ј100? OK so manual focussing/stop down is needed but that is a minor inconvenience.

Cheers,
