Above represented 3 pics have been taken during an intensive snow by Sony A700+ Tair 3 300mm/4.5 USSR lens by fully open aperture
Below represented 3 pics have been taken with the help of Bellows which extension was approximately 17cm, and I was in the distance of 1.5m from the object.





I will provide you by more detailed pictures which will represent the character of this wonderful lens
And here are the pics of Tair 3

Note the forum rules (recently changed) - trying to limit posts to three images, because otherwise they become very long to scroll through on smaller screens. No need to change anything though.

The Zenith Photo Sniper outfit with the shoulder stock and Tair-3 mounted in a fast focus trigger grip was probably one of the classic products of the 60s-70s. They used to be common, and around £100 with the camera second hand. I have not seen one for years.

Not bad for a lens with or without extension bellows,
and not bad for forum rules.
David, those sniper cameras are abundant here at the vernissage.

Dear David

Thank you for your remark, I will follow it in the future, simply it's just first time I am posting pictures in this section of forum.
You are right, it used to be very common lens for Zenit cameras, and I would say it quality is perfect.
Cost of this lens plus for example zenit TTL camera is exactly as you mentioned in Armenia!

Very nice images. I was tempted and would have probably landed one had it not been for a Pentax 300/f4 I won earlier on eBay.

With best regards,
Sury

Here is the other shot of Tair 3, I think that details are great!
