This morning Lomography announced a third piece of glass to their Art Lens line-up: the Lomo LC-A Minitar-1 Art Lens. It follows the Petzval and Russar+

The lens will bring the classic character and quality of the original LC-A Russian optics to Leica M mount rangefinders and other digital mirrorless cameras when paired with an adapter.

The LC-A Minitar-1 is constructed from brass and aluminum, and uses the LC-A’s 4-step zone focusing system, 32mm focal length, and aperture control. The lens has a relatively bright f/2.8 max aperture and a minimum aperture of f/22, which makes it versatile for a Lomo lens.

The LC-A Minitar-1 is designed as an ultra-compact pancake lens, which is clearly to appeal to the street photography crowd at which its aimed. It’s available in black and silver.
