Orio's Tessar photos have been really impressive, and I decided to try
another round with the Russian Tessar copy:

A view to the left of the road in front:

I found one image that was shot better, and reworked these as I didn't like the frames.

Thanks, Orio!  I was quite surprised the little lens didn't flare more than
it did in the second pic, no filters or hood were used! I still can't get over
what little gems these ultra-cheap lenses are! 
BTW, very nice avatar, Orio!

I was introduced to this lens by the same culprit! It's a really amazing performer and I especially like its colours. Your samples show its strengths perfectly

Patrick, Orio the Culprit has been the instigator of several lens' purchases!
I think this was the lowest in cost, though!
Patrick and Attila, thanks for your comments. Attila, have to admit, I
was surprised by its performance yesterday.

Thanks, Mike, so you have an Industar 50-2 on its way? They go for really
cheap. Here's a couple craptacular pics taken with an Agfa ePhoto 1680
I just sold to certo6, nice blue channel noise and only 1.2MP.
This is how it looks on an Oly e300, makes it look like a point and shoot!

Michael, in case you haven't tried this yet, often the cheapest way to buy an Industar 50 (or a Helios 44 etc) is to look for an old Zenit camera. An all-countries search for Zenit will find hundreds of them. If you're really lucky you might be able to sell the camera and end up with a free lens.

Thanks Peter, thats how I have acquired a lot of my equipment. Out of curiosity, is one model of Zenit more desirable than another?
Ron, I have nearly 80 lenses now. I couldn't stand not having a copy of the one MF lens that you own.

on the second shot (1/30sec) but am still quite impressed with the colors:

80 lenses? Am I wrong that you just started collecting these. I think it is great that you got all these lenses Mike, but their is a whole world out their.
As soon as you recover from the back surgery you need to get outdoors.

I've been lucky on some of my ebay purchases, maybe not compared to
