Description

Helios 44M delivers: classic Soviet glass, signature “swirly” background blur, robust all-metal build, and a versatile M42 screw mount that adapts easily to modern Sony, Canon, Nikon, Fujifilm, Panasonic, Olympus mirrorless and DSLR cameras. Perfect for portraits, street, and product shots. The fast f/2 glass shines in low light and produces a razor-thin depth of field. An 8-blade aperture paired with the Biotar optical design creates the famous spiral blur that isolates your subject and adds a cinematic vibe to every frame.

Specifications

Compatible with most modern DSLR and mirrorless cameras (Canon EF, Nikon F, Sony E, Fujifilm X, Olympus, etc.) using an M42 to your mount adapter (adapter not included).
