One FD lens is really surprising me is the FDn 35-105/3.5 seems even better than some of my primes (50/1.4 SSC, 85/1.8, even FL 55/1.2) Very nice contrast and nice results from it. Heavy but a good workout/photo shoot never hurt anyone.

I was told primes are sharper. The pics prove otherwise. I never owned an fd prime.

The FD 28 - 85 f4 zoom is also an excellent medium range zoom that also provides good optical properties .

This is my do-it all walkaround lens Jeff on a Canon FD body in a Lowepro zoomster case, it's a light and versatile outfit I can easily carry all day.
