Description from the seller
Canon FD 28mm F3.5 S.C. — A Classic Wide-Angle Lens from Early 1970s Japan
At Snow Optics Japan, we carefully inspect and clean every lens before it reaches you. Based in Hokkaido, Japan, we are passionate about vintage optics and committed to delivering honest, detailed descriptions so you can buy with confidence.
■ About This Lens
The Canon FD 28mm F3.5 S.C. is one of Canon's earliest FD mount wide-angle lenses, produced from around 1971. The "S.C." designation stands for Spectra Coating — Canon's single-layer anti-reflection coating of the era, predating the later S.S.C. (Super Spectra Coating) multi-layer version. Despite its age, this lens delivers sharp, characterful images with a natural rendering that is highly valued by film and mirrorless photographers alike. Its compact size and classic breech-lock FD mount make it a charming and practical choice for street photography, landscapes, and documentary work. With an FD-to-E or FD-to-X mount adapter, it pairs beautifully with modern mirrorless cameras.
