Canon FD 135mm f/2.8

Canon FD 135mm F/2.8 - Used Prime Lenses - Image 1 | SDS

Canon FD 135mm f/2.8 is a manual-focus telephoto prime for the FD mount, with a compact f/2.8 aperture and full-frame coverage. It is a straightforward classic Canon lens: all-mechanical handling, a long, smooth focus throw and no autofocus or stabilisation to get in the way. In use, 135mm gives a flattering perspective for portraits, stage work and general reach, while the relatively modest maximum aperture keeps size and weight lower than faster 135mm options. Optically, this type of FD lens is typically valued for its pleasing rendering rather than modern clinical correction, making it well suited to film users and digital photographers adapting legacy glass who want a simple, dependable telephoto. The 52mm filter thread makes it easy to share accessories with other Canon primes of the era, and the 1.5 m minimum focus distance is typical for the class. Used examples should be checked for smooth focusing, clean aperture blades, fungus, haze, internal dust, scratched coatings, oil on the blades and any play or wear in the FD mount and aperture actuation mechanism.
