New Lease of Life

New Lease of Life by Alex Nichol



Test shot taken with my Canon EOS 450D mounted with the Helios 44-2 58mm f/2 prime lens from my dad’s old Zenit E, made in Russia some 50-odd years ago.



This vintage glass really puts my modern Canon lenses to shame. It’s a little tight (about 92mm) on my APS-C camera body, but it makes a beautiful portrait and close-up lens.



Click on the photo to see it full-size against black.



EXIF: 58mm : f/2.0 : 1/125sec : Canon EOS 5D Mark II : Helios 44-2 58mm f/2.0
