Some samples taken with my Jupiter-3 50mm f/1.5 lens manufactured in 1959 by the Zagorsk Optical Mechanical Plant (ZOMZ). The lens hasn't been adjusted to proper Leica flange distance. And using it on a Leica body has always yielded some less than satisfactory results. And with my leaky Zorki I it proved to be a much better combination. But when I use it on my Epson R-D1 with cheap brass LTM adapter it handles exceptionally well (though there is some back focus at short focus and wide-open).
Recently cleaned out the watermarks from between the elements (with a little help from Brian). And used it yesterday evening at a local music festival
Taken at ISO800, between f/5.6 and f/4

Looking forward to getting my Zorki I back from the repairman to use this lens on it again.
