Is the Jupiter 6 the soviet equivalent of the CZJ Sonnar?

I think you know this story better than me.
Jupiter 3. Jupiter 8, and my favorite Jupiter 9, also according to the Sonnara scheme.
Jupiter 6 (180/2.8) is a direct descendant of the legendary Olympic, if I’m wrong, correct me.

more. As far as I remember, the Nikkor 85/1.8 H C auto version is also sonnar?
And, before determining the moment of time, the first versions of Nikkor 105/2.5 and 50/1.4 are also sonnars?

Here's an old one of what happens around here, fishing. I was stumbling around the the drydock and ran across this fellow. He is local, he fishes, he has done it all his life. M9 + CZJ '43 5cm f/1.5 sn 272nnnn. Sonnar is a nice formula/prescription and does flesh tones well. I am posting below this a recent pic with flesh tones taken same camera, but with a different Sonnar, the Skyllaney Bertele Sonnar. Same good flesh tones.

A couple of days of computer problems later. My main PC is still dead and probably will be down for weeks. I have my laptop rigged with ART & Linux mint for now.

Another sickly tree I'd been photographing fell victim to a storm. Ironically, the living half was what broke off as it offered the most resistance to the wind...
The Paul Bunyan statue looking at other storm damage was humorous too.

Sleepers coffee bistro, Astoria, OR, sippin' a latte and peepin' out the window. M240 + Skyllaney Bertele Sonnar f/8.0. Summer does end on Labor Day around here.

Labor Day, Monday September 2, 2024
The last one was frustrating, 90 degrees off from the previous one but metered accidentally off the sky so the ground was way underexposed. Savaged as best as I could as I like the composition. (edit: sensor cleaning tonight too it seems).

We take seriously that Labor Day is the end of summer around here. It barely broke 61 which is pretty good as we had no sun that could be seen. Such is life in the PNW. M240 + Skyllaney Bertele Sonnar.
The Pacific can be seen but hardly identified just off the tip of land at the far left. It is 14 miles from the camera and home to the Columbia Bar, just about the worst stretch of water in the world. The USCG has a school across the river for training crews to work on rough waters and students come from all over the world. YT has some vids that give you the idea. Columbia Bar - Wikipedia A Merchant Marine friend's advice to me about the Bar was, "Stay of the effing Bar." He'd been across it a few times.
NB - That large two story office building with a porch on the front is in the movie Sometimes I Feel Like Dying which was shot here in Astoria. It's an odd movie, it's an odd town.

A "Sonner Shot of a Different Type"...
My Collapsible Nikkor-HC 5cm F2, opened up for a relube. Lock at Infinity, put a little Alcohol on the screws, use a 1.5mm screwdriver...
I wanted to make sure I could get it back together before opening the second one- which was sent to me to look at...
I did. And did the second one.

Every time I see photos of you working on lenses I am reminded of the axiom to never trust programmers with screwdrivers. ;o)
