Hi, my name is Hubert, I'm from Poland. Sorry for my english I bought old german lens - Trioplan 100/2.8 and I'm very satisfied from this purchase (price - only 149 PLN = ~60 USD). I use it with my Olympus Evolt E-300. My conclusion:
1) pictures taken at F/2.8 aren't blurry, but they have delicate, bright glow. IMHO - very nice effect.
2) at F/3.5 picture is a bit sharper than at F/2.8 and there's no glow
3) at F/5.6 picture is very sharp
IMHO Trioplan is better than my second portrait lens - Tair-11A 135/2.8. Bokeh from Trioplan is beautiful.
What do you think?

Hello Maxim, and welcome to the group!!
Yes, the Trioplan is a magic lens - I was on one one day, but I slept over the end of auction and missed it. I've been chasing one since them, but always seem to miss it. But sooner or later I'll grab one!
Your photo of the bicicle is just lovely!

Trioplan vs Tair 11A in my opinion their different character for some areas perhaps Trioplan more useful , but Tair 11A is better lens from every aspects, sharper, better color rendering etc. _________________ -------------------------------

Thanks for very nice welcome. In Poland is 00.30, so I'm very sleepy... good night
Attila - in fact, my Tair is sharper than Trioplan at F/2.8 (and he doesn't produce "glow"), but at F/5.6 Trioplan is better. Quality of russian lenses is very different - you might buy very good or very poor Tair, Jupiter etc _________________ Regards,

They are completely different characters as you can see on above links.
This is Tair-11A 135mm f2.8 also a different character.

Finally this is Tair 11 133mm 2.8 a lovely old lens.

Attila - thanks for links, but I had seen these pages before I agree Trioplan and Tair are different and each one is good in other aspects. Two different lenses, two different characters
I have older (but probably more popular) version of Trioplan... I know that Trioplan was produced from 1938 till 196X and I'm interesting when mine was made (S/N 2588631).
I think that modern lenses (mostly) producing more neutral photos. Of course they are more universal, but I love old lenses with specific bokeh, glow etc.
Orio - I hope, You'll grab Trioplan soon!
Jesito - I see that U have very interestings lenses too . My friend also use 350D with old lenses (like You) and the results are interesting!
Pictures taken in friday (good weather, sunny) and saturday (bad weather, cloudy and foggy) at F/2.8; converted from RAW:
In second photo contrast and saturation was decreased intentionally Greetings from Poland! _________________ Regards,

Attila, yes, I'm very much interested in this lens! US ebay has all Exakta
mounts of this focal length, and since there's no adapter for Exakta to
4/3 Oly, I can't use these. Maxim is also an Oly e300 shooter, so his
must be an M42 model, lucky find...
It has an almost mystical quality about it. Certainly a departure from
most other lenses. My Balda Baldax has the Trioplan, too, got to shoot
a roll through it!

Katastrofo - that's right, I have M42 Trioplan - I use it with my E-300 and M42-4/3 adapter. In Poland these lenses are very rare. I saw 2 Trioplans at Allegro.pl (something like ebay): "my" for 149 PLN; 1 PLN = 3.63 € or 2.52 USD <--- sorry, my mistake... of course 1 USD = 2.52 PLN;1 € = 3.63 PLN) and other for 180 PLN. I'm lucky - my Trioplan is in very good condition, free from dust, fungus or scratches
I hope, you'll grab good Trioplan soon! Best regards _________________ Regards,
