TAIR-11A 135mm F2.8 is the most well-regarded Soviet 135mm lens. It’s a very impressive telephoto lens, especially the updated version, which had an improved sharpness and better close focusing distance than the original Tair-11. The focus throw of approx. 300° is also particularly useful with this lens helping you dial it in perfectly in a smooth and precise way. The highlight feature of this lens is of course the 20 blade aperture! It’s safe to say, that bokeh is absolutely perfect.
