Jupiter-11 is a long focus LTM lens for Leica, FED, Zorki and other rangefinder cameras (include modern Bessa cameras) with Leica Thread Mount (known as LTM).
Being a direct copy of the Carl Zeiss SONNAR 135mm f:4.0 lens, this can't be bad!
The lens issued at Krasnogorsk town at KMZ plant since end of 1940th years.
Later on were issued Jupiter-11 lenses for Kiev-Contax bayonet, then for 39mm Zenit SLR cameras... then for M42 (Pentax Screw Mount) SLR cameras, include Jupiter-11A version which can be used at different SLR cameras via special adapter (for M39 or M42 Zenit, Kiev-10 bayonet and Nikon F bayonet).
In the main, most all Soviet lenses are exceptionally good and this one is no exception!
It can be mounted on any LTM RF camera, include modern Bessa cameras, and it can be used with a lot of digital Micro 4/3 cameras with the adapter.
