My Helios 44/2 came today. Looks in good order. Focus ring is a little tight but apart from that it's a goodun!

Here it is attached to the GF1.

That's an original Helios 44 with an 0 serial by the looks of it...

Serial Number is N0451352. It also has 2/58 and HELIOS-44 as well.

Is this rare then? Worth millions of £££££££'s? Very Happy

i think the rarest of these helios is worth the price of a small chicken sandwich in estonia...of course, apologies to our estonian friends.

it does look very nice on the gf1, interested to see photos.

I keep looking out for the 0 and 00 lenses to see if they are any better.

If they're rare there's a lot of them about. Sadly, none come my way!

I have a '0' and a '00' in m39 and I didn't really notice a huge difference in quality- nor in price to be honest Very Happy Very Happy nice if you got one of course for bragging rights!

I got a '000' and it works like the others Razz. Just like the idea having it.
