The BOKEH MONSTER - Tair 11A Soviet Lens Review
มุมมอง 2.9K6 หลายเดือนก่อน
This Soviet lens has a reputation for having some of the best bokeh of any vintage lens. At 135mm in focal length, and with a maximum aperture of f/2.8, you can get some seriously blurry backgrounds. The question is, is it worth it over the other, cheaper Soviet 135mm options?

    I bought this lens a few days ago for $150 Aud, I bought a second Helios 44m lens of a guy that had the Jupiter 21m I thought y not give it a go, the lens was surprisingly a lot sharper then I was expecting, awesome bokeh so happy with the lens. Here’s a video I made using the Jupiter 21m all clips other then 2 were made with this lens m.th-cam.com/video/Ky1AlBAaclE/w-d-xo.html&pp=ygUFeXVpbiA%3D

    Letter А in USSR lens name usually means that it has changeable tail piece (typically m39 and m42). It is extremely cool lens for portraits, because it's not crispy sharp and gives smooth skin texture. Girls would like it)) I tried to use it with my DSLR as a telephoto lens and found that it's hard to focus on infinity, as if focusing ring need to be turned a couple of millimetres more. Though it works fine with Zenit cameras.

    Very nice review of a fantastic lens. I had it with my old zenit ttl (my first slr) and i regret my decision to give it away (i thought that it would be too much, since i already had the 44-m7, bundled with my zenit 122-my second zenit purchase). The 44-m7 has more contrast and color saturation-enough to be apparent in the shots, but nothing like night and day difference. Finally, contrary to the hype, the Valdai quality is more than just ok. I never had optical issues of any short. The only thing i did was to regrease it after 24 years of use.

    In my One Plus CE 5g it's only hd without frame dropping 😢 but still the results are amazing especially in skin tones look like from cinema camera even better than some DSLRs can provide. Of course still it's look like from phone footage maybe 1inch sensor owner in smartphone will more get real cinema camera type looking footage consider that BMPCC OG have very close to one inch sensor size sensor. So this app is still for flagship smartphone owners because in need a lot of hardware power to shoot hi resolution footage. But if want get maximum quality for color grading it's a best app that available today.

    I got one for 50€ with a working Zenit EM, original leather case and a working flash... The camera has the 1980 Moscow Olympics mark on it as well. It has a couple of scratches on the front and back elements though but nothing too severe. It doesn't impact sharpness, rather just contrast and bloom in general. Am looking at getting a metal lens hood for it, I've seen it can take a 52mm screw on bayonet style lens hood so I'll get it one of those, hopefully that improves the bloom.

      what do you mean. I have this lens and it's fine for both. In case you're confused, the lens is fully analog so your new camera has no idea that it even has a lens on, therefore it might be giving you an error, why would it not give you this error in photo-mode, well, no idea... You have to adjust focus and aperture manually obviously, only the shutter and ISO can be changed in the camera... Hopefully some of this helps, there are no settings on the lens after all...

    The best ever analog SLR 50mm Lens are the Contax Zeiss Planar 50mm 1.7 T*, second are the Canon FDn 50mm 1.4 !

    The Lenses may be better than most other on most other phones, but the camera sensors are too small !
