Canon New FD 3,5/50mm | Macro lens

Canon New FD 50mm f/3.5 Macro – Made in Japan (1979–1985) This Canon macro lens was introduced around 1979 as part of the New FD lens lineup. It succeeded the original FD 50mm f/3.5 Macro from 1973, featuring the improved New FD mount system — lighter, more compact, and easier to attach and remove. The optical design (4 groups, 6 elements) delivers sharp, high-contrast images ideal for close-up photography, product shots, and nature details. With the optional Life Size Converter FD, it allows 1:1 (life-size) macro reproduction. Renowned for its excellent build quality and precise manual focus, this lens remains highly appreciated among collectors and film photography enthusiasts. A fine example of Canon’s late manual-focus optical engineering before the EOS era.
