If you have a Helios 44-2 plus the Mir-1b and now you are looking for a wider budget angle, this video I will show you a great budget option that fits well with swirly bokeh of the Helios but being a much wider angle lens. Also the Pentacon 29mm f2.8 lens has a past that many has now forgotten about, causing it to be sold for a cheap price, while this lens past reveals some very interesting things.
