product details
Canon FD lenses have found new life in modern cinema through rehousing. These vintage still photo lenses, adapted for professional filmmaking, retain their classic optical character while gaining modern cine mechanics such as unified gear placement, expanded focus throw, and durable housings. The GL Optics rehousing process transforms the original FD optics into fully functional cinema lenses, with improved focus precision and robustness suitable for high-end production. Rehoused Canon FD lenses are available for rental or subrental at Cine Visuals.

Image Performance
Handling & Adaptability
The inclusion of a single aspheric optical element makes it visually compatible with both the multi-aspheric Leica Summilux-C and the spherical Leica Summicron-C primes. With nine lenses in six groups and apochromatic correction, outstanding resolution and contrast can be achieved all the way to the edge of the frame.
