TLS CANON FD-X SUPER SPEEDS - FULL FRAME

True Lens Services rehoused Canon FD-X Super Speeds offer full frame fast vintage coverage in a robust modern housing with a lens range that calls back to the classic Canon K35 look.

The Canon FD-X range is a small fast selection of Canon FD and Canon FD like lenses that have been selected to cut in with our Canon K35 MkIII set both in focal length and speed.

True Lens Services have developed a cam driven focus system alongside the chassis style lens housing that allow matte boxes and other accessories to be attached to the front of the Canon FD-X lenses, without affecting focus movements. The benefit of zero backlash and image shift give accurate dual focus scales that repeat on direction and change with the cam drive system, giving wide spread and even markings throughout the distance scale.

The rehousing also replaced the original 8-blade iris found in the Canon FD-X with a 16-blade iris that replicates those in the Canon K35 lenses.

With the kit comprising of 18mm T1.6, 24mm T1.5, 35mm T1.5, 50mm T1.3 & 85mm T1.3 the speed range closely aligns to our Canon K35 MkIII set.

The X in the FD-X refers to FD-Xtended as TLS has developed a custom 18mm T1.6 & 35mm T1.5 FD-X that did not exist in the Canon FD range.

The base glass of the 18mm is the Canon FD 24mm T1.5 and as a result the 18mm FD-X covers ARRI LF Open Gate.

The 35mm FD-X is a Minolta base glass that has been specifically selected to integrate with the FD range allowing for a more consistent speed in the Canon FD-X Super Speed kit while maintaining a consistent FD look.
