Glad you liked it!

Do you ship to India? I want a Helios and a zenitar m2s if possible. I love the m2s but can't find any here. And most Helios lens I found arenot good. If you can help would love to buy from you.

I think mine is a type 2 as it’s dated 83, but the writing is in Latin letters. I brought mine up in the UK

Hi. I am from Chicago. I would like to buy Helios 44 with ef mount. Is it possible to meet locally?

I have a 44m-4, it looks a lot like the Type 7, but produced by KMZ in 1993. Is it another variation?

I have a 44M-4 and the text is all latin on the lens front and made in KMZ, but the serial number is starting with 84, so I assume they started making the type III in 1984. Would I be correct, as you showed a type III and you state that they started production in 1987?

Same situation - I got the "Type 3" lens made in 1984 from my mom's Zenit 12xp. Great she didn't like taking photos much, so despite traveling around northern Africa, the lens is still in mint condition haha

Thanks. Mine is even different. It has the Valdai mark, but the top bezel is very narrow and the text is near the front element. Serial number starts with 88.

@@RetroFotoHouse After watching moore iof your videos I realize that it is a 44-2 I have, sorry.

To be honest I am lost😅. I bought a Valdai 1978 Helios 44-2 and didn’t realize it at the time about 2-3 years ago. There doesn’t seem to be to much oil at all on the aperture blades thankfully. But I still get photos with terrible white balancing.

I have a 44M-4 from 1982 with Latin lettering. Would you call that type 2 or type 3?

i found a type 7 but made by KMZ. could there be a quality difference between KMZ and Valdai type 7?

according to reviews, KMZ produced Helios lenses tend to have a better build quality than Valdai. specific copies from both factories may vary of couse.

Which one would work best on M43? (I have a GH5) большой спасибо

Самые лучший гелиосы - это старый 13 лепестковый и 44-3 Беломо. Есть у меня для Пентаса 44К-4, в принципе хорошая тоже вещь
