Is a Canon 70 - 200mm ( I think ), FD lens any good to anyone?
I can't vouch for if it is working correctly, but looks clean.
I got it with a couple of old flashes I bought and it's no good to me.

Seems a shame to throw it away.
Getting there! Thanks to you guys

It's useful to people who shoot Canon FD film cameras, and sadly not many other people. I think a FD lens to 4/3 body adaptor might be technically feasable but I don't know if one is actually made.

The registration distance is too short for mounting on anything other than 4/3 without loosing infinity focus
you don't have to be mad to post here



but it does help

Yeah, I'd read that.
If there are no takers on here I'll give it to a chrity shop. SOmeone must be able to make use of it.
