I took two Russian lenses to a "festival" last Saturday and took some available light shots on Arista D-Max 400 film rated at ASA/ISO 800. The lenses were the Helios-40 85mm f/1.5 and the Jupiter-21A 200mm f/4 pre-set mounted on a Praktica LTL SLR.
I thought some of you might like to see the results of these Russian optics. The Helios was used at f/2 & f/2.8 while the Jupiter was shot at f/4.5. I've posted the pictures on the Russian Camera Forum at: http://www.beststuff.com/forum/read.php?f=26&i=3357&t=3357
I've attached one of the five pictures here as a sample.
I hope I'm not too far off-track with this but there's an on-going interest in Russian or FSU equipment and I think these lenses are relevent.
