Description My uncle has given me his old Zenit camera so I decided to use the lens - Helios-44M 2/58 with my DSLR.
It was... best decision ever.
I fell in love with this lens and the bokeh ;w;

I'm also planning to try to take some shots with Zenit but I'm a bit afraid cause I don't know much about analogue photography ^^'
Well maybe one day :3

Beautiful soft bokeh!
The Helios 44M was my first prime lens, even untill now never disliked it.

It's really nice to work with. I thought I will have more problems with focus for example but it's not that hard - just have to practice a bit ^^

I guess I won't dislike it as well ^^ Thank you!

It does look good!
Analogue is just the same as digital but you don't know what you get till you get the film back

It must be a magical moment when you get your pictures which you couldn't see earlier, right?
Here we can see how our photograph looks because we have a screen so we know if we have to take it once again.

I'll go for it ^^
