🎬 HELIOS-44M-7 MC 58MM F2 CINE MOD PRIME PORTRAIT LENS FOR SONY E-MOUNT (FULL
FRAME COVERAGE) — AS IS Offered here is a classic Soviet-era Helios-44M-7 MC 58mm F2 that has been cine-modded for cinematography and professional video work. This lens is well known among filmmakers for its vintage character, creamy falloff, and the famous Helios-style bokeh that can add a stylized, cinematic signature to portraits, music videos, narrative scenes, and fashion work. This copy is configured for Sony E-mount using an included M42–NEX (Sony E) adaptation, making it ready to use on cameras like Sony A7-series / A7S / FX3 / FX30 (crop mode) / ZV-E1 and many other E-mount bodies. Important: this lens covers Full Frame sensors, so it can be used without heavy vignetting on full frame Sony E cameras. ✅ Cine Mod Features:
• Follow Focus Gears installed - one on the focus ring for smooth, repeatable pulls and one on the aperture ring for controlled exposure changes.
• 80mm OD cine lens hood included for a more cinema-rig-friendly setup (matte box style look).
• The hood features a 77mm filter thread, allowing easy use of ND / diffusion / effect filters.
• Includes front & rear caps, and the Sony E adaptation. ⚠️ PLEASE READ – AS IS / NO RETURNSThe glass is in not bad overall shape, however it has a lot of cleaning marks and some wear on the glass. Because of this, I cannot guarantee the lens will work without issues or that image performance will meet every buyer’s expectations in all lighting situations. For that reason, this lens is sold AS IS – no returns, no refunds. To help you evaluate the look, the offer includes 3 sample photos taken with this lens on a Sony A7S (shown in the listing images). Body condition shows normal wear marks consistent with age, but nothing that should prevent mounting or using the lens. Please review all photos carefully for cosmetic details and what’s included.⚙️ TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
