Canon FD 35mm 1:2 F2 S.S.C. Lens $300 shipped US address

Stops down to F16, Thorium, Concave version of this lens. From and rear element picture taken in direct sunlight. I didn't see any marks, great glass. All around great shape. I tested it when I got it this year and then it sat on the shelf. Everything was fine. Just put it on my F1 body, stops down snappy, focus smooth.

Comes with front and rear caps, rubber Canon hood this is cracking a bit. Canon case with deteriorated padding inside.



Canon FD 17mm 1:4 F4 $200 shipped US address

Front coating a bit scuffed. Tested lens when I got it didn't notice any effect. Been sitting on the shelf since. Photos of glass take in direct sunlight. Great user.

Comes with front and rear caps.


Also trade for 120/220/4x5 exotic films

This is what sold me on the lens:

I haven't been using my 35mm in a while and I have a Canon 19mm FL, well I have 2. I'll be selling one of them and some others soon. Anyway, I use the 19mm more than the 17mm, personal taste... the 17mm image is too 'clean' for me. Everything I've read about the 17mm never mentions distortion issues. I was just looking through the lens, corners of walls don't seem to curve very much on the edge of frame.
