Do you think it is LF or is it missing something?
Some say it should be m42?

According to the Helios List, it has a 24x36cm coverage. So yes, looks to be a LF lens. Thread is ~80mm?

One could use it to build a camera for direct paper prints:

And use a hat as a shutter or make a shutter oneself?

How much would the exposure be?
Sunny 16 says the correct exposure would be 1/6 if
the asa is 6 like the example above. ND2 would set it
to 1/3. I think I could do it with a hat. Smile

Or install a flatbed scanner?
The 24x36cm image could create some nice landscapes?
