According to www.zenitcamera.com two versions of this lens have been achieved: first a small series in 1990, body length 54mm, then the model "1991", length 44mm, produced from 1991 to 1994. Both versions have existed in M42 screwmount (Zenitar-M) and K bayonet (Zenitar-K). This lens is part of the second series. The body is almost identical to that of an Helios 44M-4, the optical part has smaller dimensions.

Bayonet version. The marking makes me think of a lens produced in very small series.

GraphiqueComme le 1.7/50 excellent au centre dès la pleine ouverture. Et comme lui produit à peu d'exemplaires alors qu'il aurait avantageusement succédé à l'Helios 44.
