Not every lens is about perfection.
Some are about soul, flaws, and a certain kind of magic that modern glass just doesn’t give you.
This was shot with one of my favourite vintage Russian lenses — a Helios 44 — mounted on my Leica. Softness, swirls, character... exactly what I love for personal work and storytelling photography.
I just published a new blog post about why I use old Soviet lenses on my Leica M10, M6 and M3 — and why these imperfect tools still matter today.

#Fujifilm GFX100S & #Rodenstock APO-Rodagon 50/2.8
Quite some retro vibe with this lens. Some of this is due to the uncoated extension tubes though, but I like it.

'Dinge die mit "P" beginnen ... ' - das #Portragon 100mm f4 von #Spiratone. Ein $20 Einlinser(!), mit dem man selbst heute noch an einer 100MP #Fujifilm #GFX Kamera ordentlich wie mit einem #Weichzeichner fotografieren kann (siehe Bild 2).
