The Industar-50 was a screw-mount lens for 35mm rangefinder cameras. The lenses were made since 1959 by KMZ, mainly as M39 39mm screw-mount standard lens for the Zorki camera series. Older variants (ancient Leica lens style) were made by LZOS. An M42 variant Industar-50-2 for SLRs was available. This variant is popular for use as "pan-cake" lens on modern SLR bodies by means of an M42 screw-mount adapter. The Industar-50 was a 50mm f3.5 lens, derived from Zeiss's Tessar 4-element lens. It was nicknamed the "Eagle's eye". Its brand name Industar was used for all similar 4-element/3-group lens constructions of the whole soviet photo-optical industry.
" Do I like this lens? Yes, I actually do, I like it a lot, but only on my APS-C cameras. This is mainly because it’s so sharp and has such great contrast.I actually think it sucks as a full frame lens and if you’re looking for a 50mm vintage lens, there are better options like some of the old Helios lenses. Mind you, they’re much bigger.This doesn’t mean you can’t take great pictures even on a full frame Sony A7rII. You just have to learn the characteristics of the lens and work with them. Just avoid framing anything that needs to be detailed too close to the edges and be mindful of the vignetting and flaring. "

Medium Format
Medium format refers to the size of your roll of film (or if you’re talking digital, it’s the size of the camera sensor). It really just means that you are shooting on a bigger piece of film than you do with a 35mm camera. The increased size of medium format film means a much larger negative. This will give you finer details and less grain.
Choosing your Right Medium Format Camera
Twin Lens Reflex (TLRS)
TLRs use two objective lens of the same focal length. The photographic objective lens is the one that is used to take the picture. The other lens, called the view lens, is connected to the viewfinder. Most TLRs are fixed focal length, and the more expensive models may incorporate a rudimentary room function. Most TLRs use a leaf shutter system, resulting in high speeds, quiet operation and low shutter vibration. There are also close-up, wide angle and telephoto adapters for TLRs.
Some popular TLRS cameras are: Yashica MAT-124G, Rolleiflex 2.8F, Minolta Autocord and Mamiya C330
Rangefinder
Rangefinder cameras are medium format cameras with a range finder. This negates the waistline, viewing that most TLRs carry. They are also much smaller than TLRs, and allow for easier point and shoot photographs. They tend to have limited focusing ranges, and do not have lenses larger than 180mm or 200mm. Rangefinders are quieter and easier to focus in dim light. They are mostly fixed lens models, but higher range models also provide for interchangeability.
Some popular rangefinder cameras are: Fujica G690, Mamiya 6/7, Bronica RF645, Norita 66 and Pentax 67
