that's problem with Russian lenses, quality control is not always best one
which photo you like? the original or the crop?
yes, it's a nice little lens, but what i find limiting is the way aperture is set, most of the times i had to look at the lens to set aperture, while usually on other lenses i set aperture without moving my eye from the viewfinder...
also minimum focusing distance is 65cm , i like more 50mm lenses that have shorter minimum focusing distance _________________ my tools:Oly E-M5 + 45mm/1.8 + Oly E-520 + 12-60 + 14-42 + 70-300 + Sigma 105mm + FL-50R + EC20 + SRF-11 ring flash

The aperture on mine was sticky when I got it and the other day when using it something broke and now the aperture ring just spins uselessly so it's now junk.
All 6 Helios 44s I have are good, but as you say, the quality control was patchy in the USSR.
I like both shots, the bokeh on the uncropped one is good. The crop really stands out though, so I prefer that one, very very nice work.
I don't think I'm going to bother getting another I-50, I'm going to get a Pentacon 2.4/50 pancake instead, not much larger. _________________ I don't care who designed it, who made it or what country it comes from - I just enjoy using it! |

well they are really cheap, so it shouldn't set you back financially to get another at some point... _________________ my tools:Oly E-M5 + 45mm/1.8 + Oly E-520 + 12-60 + 14-42 + 70-300 + Sigma 105mm + FL-50R + EC20 + SRF-11 ring flash

Very true, they are the second most common lens to see secondhand after the Helios-44 and just as cheap.
Your pics are good enough to make me think another I-50 wouldn't be a bad thing... _________________ I don't care who designed it, who made it or what country it comes from - I just enjoy using it! |

Nice pics. Thanks for sharing.
The lens is very good. I didn't use it. But should like to do.
Good contrast and resolution power. Good 3D.
It seems to be very useful like a macro lens, using a short tube.
