Lens Test: Canon FD 35mm f/2 Concave – Vintage Full Frame Lens –

#sponsored
We are testing the Canon FD 35mm f/2 Concave – a vintage Full Frame lens, that is a fan favourite and is often used to expand a Canon FD "Dreamset" of K35 look alike lenses, as Canon never built a 35mm Aspherical FD lens. The K35 have been used in iconic movies like Aliens and Barry Lyndon, and they are very popular as the are one of the view vintage cine lenses that cover full frame / vista vision sensors. The Canon FD Aspherical are ideal candidates for cine modding or rehousing that had an amazing development in value over the last years. The Canon FD 35mm f/2 Concave has very good close focus capabilities and is much lighter than the Canon super speeds.

THIS LENS IS MILDLY RADIOACTIVE due to the use of Thoriated glass. If you have health concerns, or you want to fix the yellowing of the radioactive element, watch our epic episode "Canon FD & K35 – Legendary cine lenses on a budget" where we build a Canon FD "Dreamset", with history, modding, test, talk about radioactive Thorium and so much more:
