Also below you can see a photo of Zenit’s new Rubinar which they are now saying can be used for astrophotography in addition to Macro work, which we previously posted. The 300mm, 500mm, and 1000mm lenses will be updated Rubinar lenses produced at the Lytkarino Optical Glass Plant (LZOS). It is still unclear if these lenses will be t-mount or M42 like the origionals.
