Posted: Fri Jun 11, 2010 12:47 am Post subject: Helios 44-xx pics - add yours |
|
|
I looked around the site & think this is the correct "room" for this but if not, please correct it admin.
Although I have been here a very short while I get the impression many members have the same lenses. So, I was thinking it may be fun to start a thread for a particular lens or the variants of it. Since I am a new owner of a Helios 44-2, I will post two pics & hope others with Helios 44-** will do the same.
I know we may be reluctant to post a pic of ours in someone else's thread with the same lens so this is an opportunity to have a compendium of pics from the same lens for all to enjoy.
I will start with two from today with my Helios 44-2.
1.
2.

Great idea. This is one of my favorite things on the Pentax forums. I'll play although they are video grabs.....
Hope others chime in here. _________________ Chris Watson

Sorry to disrupt the thread, since I don't have any pics.. How does the Helios 44 compare to the nifty fifty? I know the bokeh is awesome, what about sharpness and colors compared to the nifty? |

I've shared this one before, but it remains a favorite of my 44-2 pictures. Someday I hope to have other than lizzards and squirrels to pose.

On another note, many of you have had more than one Helios 44-X. Which one was your favourite? I must say I quite like my 44-M more than the 44-2 I had before. Feels even more rock solid, built like a tank. _________________ Check out my Flickr |

I've purchased a 44M-7 and look forward to comparing it to the 44-2. _________________ Regards,

I only have the 44M and it IS built like a tank. Accidently dropped it on concrete during a shoot, picked it up, and aside from a scuff mark worked perfectly. The focussing on mine isn't what you'd call "smooth" but more "industrial" and utilitarian I guess? Anyway, great lens and great thread. _________________ Chris Watson
