MIR-1 is wide-angle coated lens for Soviet SLR ZENIT cameras, it was introduced in 50-th years and had a Grand Prix at Brussels in 1958. The lens was based at ideas of Flektogon Ca...rl Zeiss wide angle lenses. Same lenses still produce for a present time (more than 40 years of producing!!!) and a lot of photo-shooters still buy it. In the main, most all Soviet lenses are exceptionally good and this one is no exception!
ITEM'S CONDITION: Cosmetically EXCELLENT- Work condition EXCELLENT++
Cosmetically the lens looks EXCELLENT - , it was used, and there is a little scratches at the front element of the lens, but they doesn`t impact on the quality of images. Optics of the lens is mostly clean, aperture and focusing are smooth. All functions are available. Work condition is EXCELLENT ++ NOTE: Soviet lens manufacturers wrote even about NEW lenses: "The components of modern high quality lenses are produced from special grades of glass. The smelting process involved causes inevitable formation of gasses which get trapped in the glass to form bubbles. They are always noticed with complex photographic lenses. The bubbles do not affect the lens performance or the quality of the image. Soviet state standards also allows the presence of next minor defects: scratches with the width less than 0.02mm at each surface of each optical element with total length no more than double element's diameter; dots with diameter less than 0.3mm no more than 5 dots; several minor pieces of dust and no more 2 napkin fibers with the length no more 3mm. Therefore, the factory does not accept claims about bubbles and minor defects of clearance found in lenses or exchange such lenses."
