Just after that, I purchased a Jupiter 8, black f2 50mm. The lens seems to be quite sharp and smooth to operate. The one issue I run into after so many years with other lenses is the diaphragm setting that rotates with the front of the lens when I focus. You noted in your discussion of the Jup. 12 that it has an "awkward" diaphragm setting. My question, (finally) . . . Do all Jupiter lenses rotate their aperture setting?
