From the editor
A standard single-coated lens for Soviet "Зоркий" and "ФЭД" 35mm rangefinder cameras, which replaced the Industar-26M.
The lens was produced by the Kharkov Engineering Plant "FED" (USSR) and is based on the well-known Tessar optical design.
In the lens name, "Л" most likely means "lanthanum [glass]" because the Industar-61 was the first Soviet lens to use extra heavy crown glasses, while "Д" means that the lens was designed for rangefinder cameras.
According to the manufacturer's data, the actual focal length of the lens was 52.4±2%. That is why in the lens name the focal length was indicated as 52 or 53mm or even 55mm (although this is out of tolerance, to be honest).
