List of common soviet lenses

Here is a synthetic board showing most common lenses made by soviet union.

Like for every synthetic board, it has to be read considering some things, like :

1) This board is not a list of EVERY lenses made by soviet industry. First of all, I selected only 35mm (FullFrame) and Medium format lenses, because they are definitly the most usable lenses on modern cameras. So, this board does not contain :
-Lenses for 16mm cameras.
-Lenses for wood or large format cameras
-Lenses for enlargers
-Lenses for TV or movie camera.
-Lenses for aerial photography
-Lenses for different kind of scientific duties
-Lenses for projectors.

2) The "possible suffixes" show the different suffixes (letter or number) that you can find at the end of lenses names (for exemple, Helios 44M4, M4 is the suffixe, whereas the name of the lens is Helios 44).

3) Some brief infos about mount (you can find complete page about them here (soon in english) ) :

M42 : 42mm threat mount for SLR camera, can be easily adapted on modern cameras.
L39 : 39mm threat mount for rangefinder camera, cannot be adapted on SLR camera.
M39 : 39mm threat mount for SLR camera, can easily be adapted on modern cameras.
Kiev : Bayonet mount for rangefinder camera Kiev. The focus ring is on the camera, coupled with rangefinder. Can't be adapted on SLR camera, and not easily on mirrorless.
Автомат : Bayonet mount with intern diaphragme control (no ring). No adapter avaible until now, even if it is virtualy possible to adapt it, using FD mount adapter.
Б : Bayonet mount for Kiev-6 (type Pentacon-6), can be easily adapted on modern cameras.
В : Bayonet mount for Kiev-88, can be easily adapted on modern cameras (adapter is harder to find than pentacon-6 adapter).
N : Nikon bayonet mount, can be easily adapted on modern cameras.
A : Interchangeable mount (like T2 mount). The A mount lenses are usualy sold with M42 mount.
K : Pentax K bayonet mount, can be easily adapted on modern cameras.

4) Be carefull! Some lenses cannot be adapted on 5D. They hit the mirror of the camera in infinity position!

5) If you're not very aware about name of factory, you can learn a bit with my guide des usines soviétiques (soon in english).
