Dear Rangefinder fans,
Once there was a site, with almost every regular Soviet lens listed with the correct specs and blue schematics. Its about the scheme's. I can't find it anymore, does anyone have the right link or a backup?
With kind regards,
Milo Schekkerman

Great! Looks like Zenit is back on air, missed that site for a while.
The reason I was looking for the scheme's is the fact that I'm reading and studying a book about photographic objectives (lenses) called 'Het Fotografisch Objectief' by Dhr H. M. Dekking. Written during the war, and printed afterwards.
The book contains the basics of lens faults and construction. But also scheme's and explanations of lens designs and their capabilities. It also dedicates a part to the history of lens construction.

In German, but translates very nicely. It also has the view of the elements design you are looking for.
