This old lens was sold for Zenit SLR cameras. The Zenit version can be found for moderate prices because of the compatibility problem, it's nevertheless a decent lens. Wide open it's just fine. Stopped down it's even better, a sharp lens. The lens has no close focussing capablities. Seen the other 135mm lenses. size and weight are fine. Aperture setting and aperture closing are separate, so be aware.

The M39 Zenit Mount is the same thread as ordinary M39 (Leica), but a different flange focal distance.
Please refer to the russian lens page.
