YouTuber and cinematographer PollyPoly recently captured this great cinematic vignette featuring scenes around the Brooklyn Bridge at dusk. The unique look of the short film was the result of a Helios 89 lens.
Freelensed a modified helios 89, 30mm f1.9 lens from Fed Micron. This is such a strange lens. Someone modified a Russian half frame lens into other body parts, Jupiter 8 and some other, I'm not quite sure what they are. All on M42 mount, with aperture and focus ring. With m42 to mft, it work as macro only. Train stuff, Elitar 17mm f2.7. Both filled with micro scratches and dust.
