Our Vintage Glass: Canon FD

We don’t use this glass for every project but they definitely get used on special ones. When we want a look that’s a bit softer, an older looking bokeh – we’ll pick up our set of Canon FD Cine Lenses. We de-clicked these ourselves and turned them into an excellent kit. 15, 24, 35, 50, 85.

Some more information from The Lens Database:

Canon FD optics represented the quality and craftsmanship that helped make Canon world’s leader in 35mm photography. Each lens was perfectly reliable, providing the optimum resolution and color reproduction. Special materials and technologies such as aspherical and fluorite lenses and Ultra Low-Dispersion glass were utilized.
