Jupiter 8 and 12

[Maurits88]

Dear forum members,

I have the possibility to buy 2 lenses in 1 deal:
-Jupiter 8
-Jupiter 12

The seller does not know if it is M39. Can you see it from the pictures?
see this link:

I added additional pictures

And I see the serial number on the Jupiter 8 starts with 89.
Was this lense still produced in 1989?

Your help is appreciated, thanks a lot!

Maurits

The Jupiter 8 doesn’t seem to have a mount, it’s likely just the optical elements.

+1. Both looks very weird and not in full bodies.

Both pics don't look anything like a J 8 or J 12, I would keep away from that deal.

These are common lenses and it is not hard to find them at reasonable prices.

Thanks, I will not buy them.

But does Jupiter 8 lenses for 1989 excist at all?

Yes. Even 1990s.

My previous J-12 was almost NOS from 1991. The oil on aperture blades was fresh and plenty. Even after cleaning attend. Crapier optically than 1950 I have now, but less prone to ugly flaring.
