Zero Optik Canon FD Set $37,500

[Jayson Bosteder]

Considering parting with my personal rehoused vintage cinema set and wanted to put feelers out before formally listing.

Main set rehoused by Zero Optik:

• Canon FD 24mm f/1.4 L

• Minolta 35mm f/1.4

• Canon FD 50mm f/1.2 L

• Canon FD 85mm f/1.2 L

 

Plus:

• Canon FD 14mm f/2.8 L rehoused by Samcine/JDC

 

This has been one of my favorite sets I’ve owned / fast, full-frame, organic rendering with beautiful dimensional falloff and skin texture without feeling overly soft. The 50 and 85 in particular are gorgeous wide open.

 

The Minolta 35 was intentionally chosen over the Canon FD 35 after extensive testing. I spent a long time searching for the right 35 for this set and ultimately preferred the Minolta’s rendering, gentler focus transitions, and more dimensional feel while still pairing naturally with the FD glass. It does carry a slightly greener/cooler bias than the Canons, but it’s subtle and easily balanced in post.
