The thing is that Helios now (I think they introduced it 3 years ago) makes this lens in the Nikon F mount and the Canon mount (not sure which ones).
I use it with a Nikon-Leica adapter on my M240 and EVF, but I also could use it on my D750 either with regular focussing or with Live View. Or pretty much on any of my film Nikon SLRs.

I know Veijo from the days when we all started to adapt vintage, manual lenses to our Canon EOS DSLRs, basically from 2004 on. About every week one of us had discovered a "new" vintage model and presented his findings in a manual lens forum. Nostalgia.
Last autumn I have shot with the Meyer-Optik version of this lens, though:

Yes they do. Personally I found that funny as I liked the lens enough to borrow the neighbor's lathe and convert it to Nikon mount myself, in 2008:

Now I have to get a Nikon/M adapter just for that lens .... I thought my Minolta 85/1.4 was enough but your photos say otherwise.giganova

You betcha!
Some peeps call the M240 100 yr anniversary edition the M100. It has 100 engraved on the top plate as u can see in the pic.
Makes it 10 times better than that skinny puny little M10!
