It is a wide aperture, but still the shutter speed confuses me. What's the ISO used here? I'm sorry but I'm still quite young in photography so just trying to understand the technical stuff a bit...

very cool shot btw, thanks for posting.

The ISO is 2500.
This old soviet lens don't communicate with the camera. So EXIF can be a bit strange. For example, focal length shown as 65535 mm :)

Yeah, I see. Well I didn't even bother to google the equipment, my bad. Thanks for being cool and explaining that. But, in that case, if you don't mind, if the lens doesn't communicate w/ the camera, that means no autofocus, is that correct?

True! You have to set focus manually. Hard work. This lens is for zen-buddists only. :)

Hard work indeed. I'm so bad at manual focus...it's incredible :) Thanks for the explanations @zhitkov, I'll definitely pay closer attention to your feed :)

Manual focus is not big problem. The most important thing in this case is good eyesight! :)

Your post is great and I think it is valuable for the photo community on Steemit!
