Description: Helios-40 1.5/85mm Lens - Soviet Portrait Vintage Biotar + Ring M39-M42 If you're here, you already appreciate the unique qualities of this classic lens. Performing exceptionally well for its age, the Helios-40 1.5/85mm delivers the enchanting bokeh effect and dreamy live video that vintage photography enthusiasts cherish. While I've only included one personal photo, a wealth of online examples showcase its stunning capabilities. This M39 mount has been sleeved to M42, allowing compatibility with various screw-on mounts for EOS, Nikon, and more. Note that the sleeve is tightly fitted and difficult to remove. The photos reveal some scratches on the outer front lens element and minor dents in the silver area. Additional swirly cleaning marks are present, but due to the lens's soft nature, these imperfections have minimal impact on image quality. The rear element has a noticeable mar and small cleaning marks, with the previous owner's engraving "KBH" on the rear mount area. The aperture blades are well-maintained, moving freely with minimal grease. One unique feature of this lens is the manual adjustment required for the aperture setting. Included with this lens:- Original dust cap- Aftermarket M39 rear screw cover- Canon EOS adapter mount for M42- Canon rear lens cover- Vintage Vivitar case (acquired 12 years ago) Thanks for looking, and please feel free to ask any questions prior to purchase.
