Manufactured in 1977 Focusing is stress-free. No operational problems. In test shots, I was able to take pictures without any issues as far as I could tell. This is the popular early silver Jupiter 8. I often get asked, "What are some recommended old lenses?" I recommend this lens. It doesn't have the swirling bokeh like the Helios, but it's a lens that allows you to enjoy the atmosphere of an old lens. I once photographed clouds in a blue sky, and I remember being moved by the watercolor-like images I was able to capture. It can't produce images that sharply capture time like modern lenses, but I think you can take pictures that are like memories. Sorry for rambling on. JUPITER 8 50mm F2.0 L39 mount As a bonus, a hood and UV protection filter will be included. Accessories Hood Front and rear caps UV protection filter (with case) The accessories are new. You can take pictures that you can't experience with modern lenses. However, since it is a very old lens, there are some thin scratches and dust particles that do not affect the shooting. When the lens surface is held sideways to the light and reflected, there is balsam separation in the coating on the edge of the lens. Please understand. Test shots were clear and beautiful without any problems. It's an era where you can enjoy old lenses with digital cameras. Unlike the sharp photos of today, you can take pictures that are like memories. This lens is recommended for those who want to take photos with character!
