you can never have enough 50's

[Laika]

Well here are most of my Soviet 50's, none of them have turned out to be dogs and several are very nice. I'm thinking of getting some adaptor rings so I can use them on my DSLR for some cheap testing (Only close focusing distance I know, but at least it will take the lens mount to film plane distance and RF accuracy out of the equation) to try and pick out the gems of the bunch for further testing with film (on my RF's). Its a crime to have so many and nearly always reach for my trusted black J8 😎

Seen here are various versions of J8, J3, Ind-22, Ind-50, Ind-26m, Ind-61, Ind-61 L/D .. While I'm not actively looking at the moment I'm still after a nice black J3 and a collapsible Ind-50 to round out the collection 😀

You have an impressive collection of FSU lenses. I only have two so far, and I am now trying to use whatever I have and to test these lenses so I better know what I have.
