    Nice! Do you have any first-hand experience with any of these that you’d like to share?

      Yes, I do own two Helios 44-2 from two different manufacturers:

      • KMZ: It is the most famous one and somehow hard to find. If you want to have the really swirly ones go for a KMZ with serial number starting with “N00”.
      • MMZ: Nice option too but less “swirly”.
