Product Description

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. Though it was made in the early 1990s, this 58 mm f/2.0 lens is compatible with many DSLR cameras with an adapter. It attaches to traditional, 35-mm cameras via the M42 x 1 thread. The Helios 44-2 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. The aperture of this Helios camera lens for Zenit/Pentax is manually adjusted via the aperture ring. Focal length varies a little in this 58 mm f/2.0 lens from 58-60 mm. Because of its adaptability, one-of-a-kind bokeh effects, and high focal aperture, the Helios 44-2 is a fine camera lens for producing photos with unique effects. Lens mount: EOS-EF

This lens is beautiful! It has a lot of character and beautiful swirly bokeh. I couldn't be happier with it! A major shout out to Ivan the seller, the lens came early and in great condition. The seller was very responsible and polite and answered all of my questions. I literally could not recommend this lens enough! I point out how small the lens is, not bad, just small. I posted a comparison to show the size difference.Shipping note: I would point out that the shipping get's confusing, here is the breakdown. Ivan, in Ukraine, sends it to the states via some 3rd party shipper. When it gets to the states it then gets shipped via FedEx or UPS. So you will get a FedEx/UPS shipping label almost immediately, but tracking info will take 3-weeks-ish to show up (when it gets to the states) from there it's only a few days.

5.0 out of 5 stars Must-have vintage lens
Reviewed in the United States on February 6, 2022
Purchase price: $57 including shipping+ tax. Bargain lens! This lens has nice sharpness. Produces swirly bokeh under the right conditions. The focus ring is not as smooth zooming in during cool or cold weather but in warm weather it works fine. The aperture is continuous. I prefer set a aperture “click” but that’s not a major issue. On my copy the aperture readings are backwards. When wide open (f2) it reads f16. I suppose whomever cleaned/repaired this lens reassembled it incorrectly. Again not a major issue with a Canon M50. This lens works quite well with an EF-M42 adapter on my Viltrox Speedbooster. Very happy with this lens and would def recommend as a must-have if you’re getting into vintage lenses.

I was a bit skeptical at first but when I received the package and opened it the lens was very well packed. I was very impressed with lens when I tried it out. Great price for the lens, even though it was used it looked new with scratches or wear marks. The lens is in great shape and you can even smell the lubricating oil.
