Canon
FD 35mm f/2.0 Test Review get it used here
INTRODUCTION This is a pretty darn good manual focus lens. For some reason some of the glass internally has yellowed on this lens, making it unsuitable for color photography and ideal for b/w. SPECIFICATIONS 52mm filter, stops to f/16, focus to about a foot. All metal construction. PERFORMANCE Color balance is severely yellow, making this lens useless for color photography. This is actually helpful for B/W photography if you don't use a yellow filter. It is very sharp. Barrel distortion is typical. Ghosting is OK, I don't recall looking for it or seeing anything that bad. RECOMMENDATIONS Forget this for color. It is obviously too yellow. Try a different 35mm lens. |
