Appropriately, this title has dual meanings. I've shown you quite a few images that show the unique and artistic optical imperfections of the Helios 44-2 wide open, but here is the flipside of the coin. Stopped down the lens becomes a very sharp corner to corner prime. The duality is also expressed in the photo itself, for the reflection both mirrors and yet subtle alters the scene above.
