Hi,

I am looking for a Helios 58mm lens, the kind that came with Zenit cameras. I am looking for pre-set type. Usable condition, does not have to be perfect, but no fungus please! Very Happy

Graham

Oh, I have never used one and don't know about different editions Embarassed

So long as it is pre-set aperture with both aperture rings, I guess I will be happy Very Happy

prices I do not know, I am guessing 10 to 20 GBP? Is that too low? I am not worried about condition so long as it can be used, and has pre-set. Did I mention pre-set? It has to be pre-set Laughing

Is it the pre-set kind? I don't want auto aperture, I like to turn the ring to the preset aperture.

it's a preset iris lens, helios 44-2.
Blades are wet but functioning without delay. furtheron in excellent condition.
free because i don't want to waste time to make ebay adds for the one or two pounds i could proberly earn. And ofcourse i'm happy that someone is willing to use it, instead of laying here unused.
If afterwards you're in need for an excellent copy; i have some more.
shipping is 6.16 euro (+4% paypal costs).
pm me if interested.

GrahamNR17: All version of Helios 44-2 has pre-set aperture. 44-3 has pre-set, too.

Here is list of all Helios 44 lenses I know (it's updated few minutes ago)
