Canon NFD 28mm f2.8 - Sample Photos
Canon NFD 28mm f2.8
Here are some sample photos shot with the Canon New FD (nFD) 28mm f2.8. The image quality is impressive for a vintage lens. Its sharpness stands out, capturing fine details with clarity, though stopping down to f4 or f5.6 really brings the edges into focus. The colors have a natural vibrancy, with good contrast that gives the images a pleasing pop without feeling overly processed. I’ve found that it handles flare decently in backlit scenes, though a little ghosting can creep in. I wouldn’t quantify this lens as having a ton of vintage charm. So if you’re looking for a lens with a heavy vintage look this one might not be fore you. Overall, this lens delivers a classic, film-era rendering that feels authentic and timeless, making it a joy to shoot with.
