Capture stunning portraits with the Helios 40-2 85mm f/1.5 lens, a classic piece of Soviet-era optical design, now adaptable for a variety of camera systems. Its wide f/1.5 aperture ensures excellent low-light performance and offers a pleasing bokeh, ideal for photographers favouring a traditional manual focus approach.

Copy from Carl Zeiss Jena Biotar. King of swirly bokeh! Produces a beautiful biotar-style bokeh - highlighting highlights in the focus as beautiful discs (under the right conditions) so the background swirls slightly.

Unlike the 44-2, it has multi-coated optics (hence the "MC" on the front ring) and is thus sharper and has better contrast than the 44-2, while retaining the swirly bokeh characteristic that the 44-2 is famous for.
