The Canon FD Primes PL Mounted Prime lenses are some of the most advanced lens designs after more than 40 years from the first manufacturing date. The Canon lenses incorporate a floating element design and aspherical glass for sharp images, and close range correction. Canon FD Prime lenses share a very similar optical design and look as the highly popular Canon K35s, and these particular lenses also have the recognizable GL Optics chassis style re-housings with cam driven focus systems. They feature zero backlash or image shift as well as new irises to match the K35 iris. The 24mm, 55mm, and 85mm FDs also feature aspherical glass, making them essentially as similar as possible to K35s.
By now the secret is out that Canon FD Primes lenses are a perfect fit for cinematography, especially Full Frame cinematography. The 24mm f1.4, 55mm f1.2, and 85mm f1.2 aspherical lenses are siblings of the legendary K35s. So whether you are looking for a more affordable option to K35s, or you need additional focal lengths to compliment our K35s, these are a perfect choice.
