This is a Russian copy of Zeiss Biotar in M42 mount. Reasonably sharp wide open and very sharp a couple of stops down. Has a swirly bokeh which may not be to everyone's liking.

On a Pentax K-x; f/5.6, 1/250", ISO 200 in available light. Taken at Mercer Arboretum.

Wonderful. Old glass has a distinctive, and to my eye, more pleasing signature.
