A BASIC EXERCISE WITH THE HELIOS 44M CAPTURE THE TREE TRUNK PIN SHARP AND KNOCK OUT THE BACKGROUND. I KNOW THIS LENS BREAKS AND SWIRLS THE BACKGROUND SO THIS WAS MY GOAL. IT IS ALL ABOUT FOCUS AND DEPTH OF FIELD. HOWEVER, THE HELIOS IS VERY BASIC MANUAL FOCUS SO FOCUSING IS HARD AS THERE IS NO SPLIT SCREEN. THE IMAGE JUST SHARPENS IN THE VIEWFINDER IF THE APERTURE IS CLOSED DOWN IT DARKENS THE VIEWFINDER AND MAKES IT VERY HARD TO FOCUS. HOWEVER, I WAS HAPPY WITH THE OVERALL RESULT.
