Subject: [Leica] OT: Helios 85/1.5?history?

I am hoping some one on the list will know something about the russian 
Helios 40-2 85mm F1.5 lens for SLR's. The only thing I is that it is a 6 
element design. Is it derived from a german design like alot of other 
russian lenses? I picked one up in Prague,mint condition, for use on my 
Canon EOS. The lens is finished in nice very miliary flat black. I hope it 
performs well! I spent too much money on my leica stuff...so I'm cutting 
corners with my Canon outfit!
