apparently this version has detachable front glass assembly that , when removed from the helicoid part, is used with bellows for macro, otherwise same optical scheme

I think this article is incorrect. The aperture is not preset, there is only one ring and it turns freely without click stops. Also I cannot find a way how its lens block can be detached from the helicoid and don't understand why this is needed. |

Quite common practice during 1940-1950 ... I have a Schacht Travenon that behaves the same ... AFAIK, the Leitz Hektor uses the same "trick" ...

I concur with dimitrygo. My '93 sample is an M42 with an unclick aperture ring. Unlike M-Travenar which the head can be pulled right off, the 44-3M seems to be a single piece. |
