📜 History:
The Jupiter-12 was developed in the 1950s as a Soviet copy of the famous Zeiss Biogon 35mm f/2.8 lens. Produced at Soviet factories such as KMZ and Arsenal, it gained popularity due to its excellent sharpness and low distortion, making it a favorite for both amateur and professional photographers to this day.
