MIR- 20M 20mm F3.5 is the widest rectilinear lens in Soviet lens line-up. It’s losely based on the Carl Zeiss Flektogon 20mm optical formula. The minimum focusing distance is just 0.18m, which makes it one of the shortest close focusing lenses in its class and a great lens for getting very close to your subject.
MIR 10A 28mm F3.5 is a bit of a dark horse. It’s a less known Soviet lens, but very unique and worthy nonetheless. Its closes focusing distance very impressive at just 0.20m and it produces very shoot bokeh when wide open, though its aperture design, results in “sheriff star” bokeh when you step this lens down. This lens has minimal distortion, 3-dimensional feel and good sharpness even wide open.
MIR-1B 37mm F2.8 is a very popular wide/mid-range lens. It’s closely based on Zeiss Flektogon equivalent. It’s a favourite lens of many thanks to its incredible flares.
HELIOS 44-2 58mm F2.8 is a cult classic; one of the most popular and loved lenses in history. It’s based on the legendary Zeiss’s Biotar 58mm, which explains why Helios 58mm is so well regarded. It pretty much has it all including the beautiful dreamy flares very unique swirly bokeh and a great sharpness.
JUPITER-9 85mm F2 is yet another very popular Soviet lens. This 85mm is based on Zeiss Sonnar equivalent and shares most of the characteristics with the other 2 lenses it’s often used with. One of its best features is the 15 blade aperture, which keeps that bokeh nice and found at any F-stop.
