Very nice pictures, I have two also, one silver Jupiter 6 and the black Jupiter 6-2. Built like a tank. Even the Helios 40 looks small compared to this lens Wink

Tair-3 is good for that too - like a big metal club. Smile

The bokeh isn't bad, but it's soft even at those small sizes.

I'm not agree, this lens is incredible sharp (even wide open), at least my exemplar....
100% crop wide open, without any PP & without any sharpening of course:

It's fine to not agree as everyone has their own interpretation of what is acceptably sharp, but I find the images from the OP to be quite soft.

for me sharpness is not the most determining factor for the quality of the lens, even though Jupiter is sharp.
We all know that MF lenses are not used for the 100% cut , but because of nostalgia and .......
