Its classic 58mm F2 optical design is famous for distinctive swirly bokeh, organic softness, vintage contrast and expressive rendering. Our cinema modification adds neutral anamorphic-style bokeh and blue flare while retaining the convenience of a spherical lens with no de-squeezing required. Combined with a de-clicked aperture, dual 0.8-pitch follow-focus gears and an 80mm OD cine hood, this Helios is ready for narrative filmmaking, music videos, commercials, portraits, experimental cinematography and other creative video projects.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e📦 This Offer Includes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e✔ Helios-44-2 58mm F2 Cine-Mod Lens\u003cbr\u003e✔ Adapter for Your Chosen Camera Mount (select the required option in the listing)\u003cbr\u003e✔ Rear Cap for Selected Mount\u003cbr\u003e✔ 80mm OD Cine Lens Hood with 77mm Filter Thread\u003cbr\u003e✔ 2x 0.8-Pitch Rubber Follow Focus Gears – Focus and Aperture\u003cbr\u003e✔ Front Lens Cap\u003cbr\u003e✔ Rear Lens Cap\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEach Helios-44-2 is an authentic vintage lens, so minor cosmetic differences between individual copies are normal.
