For photography lovers looking for a camera lens that captures clear foreground images while providing unique and beautiful bokeh affects, the Helios 44-2 is worth considering. Lens construction within this Helios camera lens for Zenit/Pentax is six elements in four groups. This lens 58 mm f/2.0 is compatible with many DSLR cameras with adapter. It attaches to traditional, 35-mm cameras via the M42 x 1 thread. The Helios 44m-2 features a maximum focal aperture of f/2.0. High focal apertures yield pictures with detail finer than what is perceived with the human eye.

Before you buy a lens, will get information from the Internet on the availability and type of adapter to your camera. I sell only the lens, please buy adapter separately from other sellers.

(This lens will work with Sony NEX E-mount Mirrorless Camera with M42-NEX mount adapter.)

(This lens will work with Panasonic GH2,GH3, GH4 and GH5 Mirrorless Cameras with M42 to M4/3 adapter.)

It will also work with Metabones Speed Boosters. It actually works with speed boosters even better. I have one mounted on my Panasonic GH5 using Metabones EOS to MFT. In this case my adapter is M42 to EOS. Then I have attached to my GH5. The crop factor after that becomes 85mm instead of 116 and the F-stop becomes 1.2/1.5

Comes with both front and rear original protective caps.
The optical element (the glass) is in a perfect state, there are no scratches, no fungus, no signs of rubbing.
The glass is clean and clear (no fungi). The focal ring and the aperture move easily and precisely.
