    Thanks for this video! You helped me save a Tair 11a that was actually dug out of a trash dumpster because the focus was jammed with old grease and fungus had started to grow inside. It cleaned up perfectly; looks like new and yes it is sharp wide open with nice round bokeh,; gets very crisp just one stop down and will be a useful lens on my Sony A7RII.

    Hey Retro Foto House. This is a very nice video and it has helped me a lot.
    I wonder if you could post a video about how to relube the helicoid of this lens? If not video, maybe a description? Many thanks in advance!

    Thanks for sharing I will stop by your shop, need to save up some money first. I already bought a few russian lenses like jupiter and mir but not this brand. I am a beginner in filming and never heard of this brand before so it looks interesting.
