![]() But I really liked how it turned out with the colors and its analog-look. This shot at 100% looks terrible, because nothing is in focus. I tried the lens for some landscape/architectural pictures, but the limited focus (cannot focus to infinity) was a pita. The Helios is perfect in this regard, because you either set the aperture to f/2 and just shoot away, or you set it to f/2.8 (one stop) and the only thing you have to do in between shots is to open it and close it again after metering using the iris-ring. As you know by now, I buy fast lenses to use them wide open, therefore I rarely go smaller than f/2.8. Working with the pre-set aperture could be really tricky for someone who’s always changing the aperture settings while shooting. Taking pictures with this lens on my DSLR took some getting used to but I really love it. Handling of the Helios and some impressions I have to investigate this further, because it sucks. I only realized that when I unpacked my stuff after flying to the UK.
