and what are the differences between all of them? I have got Helios 44M 58mm F2.0


The differences are in the resolution and the coating. In each version, usually improved, they marked these improvements through the last number, that it is separated by a dash. I have no knowledge that any changes in the optical formula.

Happy shots!


I also have a Zenitar M2S which is the MC replacement of the Helios-44. The lens is sharp, more flare resistant but doesn't have character like my Helios.

I will try under those conditions. Also I wonder if a full frame would be better than APS-C to produce the swirling bokeh. My images are shot on Canon 550D.


Full frame is definitely better, it mostly happens on the edges. But you can still get it on APS-C bodies, my shot was from a Canon 1000D.

not noticed much of a swirly bokeh on my 44/2 , but it does produce it ,its there, all depends on a background I think. Smile
