Hi,
I bought on eBay a modified Zenitar 50mm f1.7 with Nikon mount.
Here is how it looks on a Nikon D800. To my eye the results are pretty good.

Nice! I have the 1.9 version, but I think it is not as good as yours.
I like it though.

Nice work. Yes, the Zenitar-M 1.7/50 is indeed a badly underrated lens. Partially because the plastic art-deco and square aperture Zenitars tend to lead people into not taking the Zenitar-M brand seriously.

Personally I believe that my copy of the Zenitar-M 1.7/50 is at least as good a lens as a Pancolar, for far less cost...unless posts like this start driving the price up of course. Laugh 1
