It's almost an unique lens, only 2 are known to exist yet.

Shocked

Could you please post an image of this lens here?

I really like the sample pictures you presented above. The characteristics of this lens are one thing, the other is your ability to use it well. Thank you for sharing.

The silver part is an adapter.

This smooth OOF rendering is very pleasing, especially compared to many other soviet cine lenses you presented in the forum. It feels like a gentle Helios of the cine world.

It's a pity the Soviets did not put this lens into mass production. Do you have an explanation why this did not happen, and they produced instead those with harsher rendering? Was the cost of this one too high for some reason?

Most of time GOI conceived optical design on demand. So usualy a minister or studio asked a lens for a specifical purpose with specific criteras. GOI created it, made few samples and they were tested. If the lens reach all the criteras, it went to production (mass or low), if not, then nothing. As far as I saw, many lenses have fallen in the second category. Rendering or esthetic of the image was rarely on the criteras I guess, as GOI made a lot of technical lenses.
