I'm trying to figure out "wet on wet"- come down to "not too much Over-Correction", better to have under-correction for spherical aberration, medium/low contrast, veiling flare.

This particular KMZ 1952 Jupiter-3 is made from parts, but all the elements are from the same lens. The original optical barrel was the wrong length, unusable.

1934 5cm F1.5 Sonnar, wide-open on the M9. Lots of sun. The bloom on this lens acts as a natural lens coating. The colors are counter-intuitive for an 86 year old lens.

^^^ Amazing! ^^^ What lens produced that look?
A number of different lenses. The first is an Aires Coral S 4.5cm f1.5. The second, third and fifth are with a modified Dallmeyer Octac Oscillograph 80mm f1.5. Fourth is an Elgeet Cine Navitar 2 inch f1.5, and the last is with a modified Angenieux Type 65 projection lens. But these aren't the only lenses that produce such bokeh. Here is first a shot with an Elgeet STL-Navitar 86mm f1.2 used in some scientific equipment, and then a shot with a Kodak Ektar 47mm f2 lens from an old Retina IIb. A much wetter bokeh then from a Varo 75mm f1.6 lens. Finally crazy double ring bokeh from a Kilfitt Makro Kilar 90mm f2.8
