What it is

{"overview":"The Canon FD 28mm f\/2 is a fast manual-focus wide-angle prime for the Canon FD mount system, produced during the FD era (1971–1987) for 35mm SLR bodies. Work the aperture blades to confirm they snap cleanly with no oil film, and turn the focus ring through its full travel to check for stiffness, grease migration or sticky helicoids.

Questions

Why do prices for this lens vary so much?

Condition is the main driver of price: fungus, haze, oily aperture blades or stiff focus will pull hammer values toward the lower end of the range, while clean optics and smooth mechanics push towards the top.

Will a Canon FD 28mm f/2 fit modern Canon cameras?

It is a manual-focus FD-mount lens from the 1971–1987 era and does not natively fit Canon EF or RF bodies; use on modern cameras requires an adapter, and results vary depending on the adapter type.
