Pros: Lightweight, robust, good optical quality

Cons: For what it costs practically none

Opinion: This is the Soviet copy of the legendary Zeiss Tessar, in the last century it was supplied with Zenit cameras with M42 mount. I bought it online paying only 20 €. I always carry it in my bag also because it is very small. I use it on the DSLR (it is adaptable to practically any camera body through a special adapter ring) almost always at full aperture to take advantage of the very pleasant bokeh; however, it provides good results even at more closed diaphragms. All controls - focus, iris setting - are manual. To avoid the flare should be used with the lens hood: the filter diameter is 35.5 mm, if you do not find a lens hood of this size with a few euros you can buy both the adapter ring and a larger diameter metal lens hood.

Pros: Very small even with the micro 4/3 adaptor, light and well built, good optical quality

Cons: Nothing for the price (40 euros including shipping)

Opinion: Bought on ebay without much conviction I received a little toy that I am trying to use on the Lumix GX 80. I was surprised by the good construction, sharpness and great blurry you can get. The diaphragm ring is really small and put in front is a bit difficult to use but you get used to it. On the other hand, the focus is fluid at the right point but resuming manual fire after years of autofocus requires some attention. You can do a little bit of everything, portraits, streets, landscapes, flowers... a good purchase that given the price advice to those who want to make a return to the past

Pros: Small size and low weight, good optical quality, low cost.

Cons: Ergonomics, impossible to mount hood, not very bright at TA.

Opinion: The Industar-50-2 is a 50 mm focal length lens with very small dimensions, manufactured by Russian KMZ until the 1990s. The M42 version, produced for Zenit SLR cameras, was based on the Carl Zeiss Tessar scheme and derived from its predecessor, the Industar 50, available only for M39 screw mounting, for rangefinder cameras. It's a very small and light lens, to be kept comfortably in your pocket, to be pulled out on occasion, to take good pictures in terms of clarity, contrast and colors. It is available in the vintage market for only 20-30 euros, but the negligible expense must not make you think you have badly spent those few resources. As for the negative points, they are essentially: ergonomics, flare and low light at TA. Setting up the diaphragm is difficult because you risk moving the MAF at the same time. Moreover, since it is not possible to mount a lens hood, under certain conditions of the angle of the light source it is subject to flare phenomena. Myevaluation is however satisfactory, especially if compared to the cost of the problem. rn
