It was included with the ZENIT 122. It was the first camera lens I bought
that was not from a Japanese maker. Much easier to use than expected. Because of non-engineering plastic
construction, it feels extremely cheap. Being a thread mount lens, detaching
and reattaching it takes some time, but not excruciatingly time-consuming. @Lens itself is a
rounded, modern design. |
|
|
PROS |
1. Performs rather well for its price |
|
CONS |
2. Low-grade plastic construction |

I purchased it with the ZENIT E. I
felt that the rounded appearance of the MC ZENITAR-M2s 50/f2
included with the ZENIT 122
doesn't match the ZENIT E. Overall, it's not a bad lens. |
|
|
PROS |
1. Performs rather well for its price 2. Partial metal construction |
|
CONS |
1. Feels cheap |
|
It is much heavier
than the all-plastic MC ZENITAR-M2s 50/f2 |

@It was included
with the ZENIT ET. @While the MC
ZENITAR-M2s 50/f2 is of rounded design, this lens is of orthodox design. @Moving parts
doesn't move smoothly. ZENIT ET
itself isn't a stress-free camera either. |
|
|
PROS |
1. Quality is relatively high |
|
CONS |
2. Moving parts doesn't move smoothly |
|
Until the appearance of the MC ZENITAR-M2s 50/f2,
this was the standard lens for the ZENIT
122 |

It was included with the PRAKTICA LLC. This lens was also attached to another
PRACTICA LLC shown in another website. It's safe to assume that it was the
standard lens for this particular camera. |
|
|
PROS |
1. Tolerable quality 2. When you attach it to any M42
camera, it improves the overall appearance of the camera greatly |
|
CONS |
1. Moving parts are relatively stiff. |
|
It's a 'Magic Lens' that greatly improves the overall
appearance of any camera |

I purchased it with the Nikon D100. It's a huge and heavy lens, but
performs relatively well. It's a huge and heavy lens. Did I
mention that? Well, I'll mention it again, because
it's true. It's a huge and heavy lens. |
|
|
PROS |
1. Enables shoots in poorly lit areas.
|
|
CONS |
1. Huge and heavy |

I'll mention it once more: it's a huge and heavy lens. |

I purchased it with the Canon EOS7. It's a 10.7X zoom lens, covering 28mm
to 300mm. I thought this was the lens that will
solve all my problems, but I learned that this particular lens was far from
perfect. |
|
|
PROS |
1. Enables shoots from great
distances. |
|
CONS |
1. Quality of pictures taken with it
is only satisfactory at best. |
|
It's relatively compact, considering its zoom range |

This lens came with the Minolta Vectis S-1. V mount is a lens series specifically
designed for APS films. Since APS is smaller than conventional 35mm, the
entire line-up boasts more compactness than lens designed for 35mm film
cameras. The lens quality is excellent,
enabling better-than-satisfactory photos even for shoots in poor weather
conditions. Lens is splash-proof, a feature that
is rarely found in lenses for 35mm cameras. |
|
|
PROS |
1. Splash-proof 2. Clear, bright photos |
|
CONS |
1. V mount cameras are out of production |
|
Light, compact, high-quality, and splash-proof Perfect! Except that camera bodies that can use this lens are history |

It was included with the Nikon F50. It was my first Nikon F mount lens.
Part of the reason for purchasing the F50 was this lens. |
|
|
PROS |
1. Good Macro performance |
|
CONS |
1. Limited zoom range 2. With no clear markings, attaching
the lens hood is difficult |
|
Overall, it's not a bad lens, but I rarely have the chance to
use it |
