SOLD


I'm selling the fastest wide prime ever made by Canon.

canon FD 24mm f1.4 L

I used this last summer on my GH1. Not for Canon EOS.
I'm now shooting t2i so this lens sits on shelf because of incompatible flange distance.
My next cam will probably be scarlet fixed so once again this lens will sit on the shelf therefore I've decided to sell.

There is a small mark on the surface of the front element, other than that the lens is perfect. The mark has not affected images either still or video. Inspection okay for anyone local to NYC.

Serial number is:17926.
Made in Japan.
Filter size 72mm.

Sell price? Make an offer.

My ebay profile is here LINK
and you can see I bought this lens of lukavakeli Aug 16 last year. Mark on front element was already there when I bought from Lukavakeli. He also stated in his ad that the mark
does not affect image quality. I kept screenshots of his original ebay ad, PM me if you wish to see it.

Here are some pics showing the condition

None of these pics show the scratch on the front element because its so small.
Lemme dig around for another pic under lights to try and get it to show up.

Okay got it. The white dots are all specs of surface dust. The thin white dot center left is the scratch.
Needed 1200watts with umbrellas to get it to show up in a pic

I'm drooling over this lens, but I can't afford it. However, in case anyone's interested, I bought my GH1 and Nikon adapter from J. Davis right here on DVXuser, and it was a smooth, clean, easy, and painless transaction. He's a good guy, just so you know.

Hey man whassup? Did you install the tester13 hack?
Funny but I'm drooling over your GH1 right now as I would love to join the testing fray.
Probably for the best as all that messing around would be a huge distraction to my work!
 
If there are any GH1 shooters local to NYC who would like to meet up to have a shoot with this lens PM me.

I don't have a GH1 and I would like to get some shots to post online so it benefits me too.
Centra Park, Union Sqr, wherever, somewhere central in manhattan.

I own a FD to micro 4/3rds adapter – this is the fasted wide you can ever put on your cam !!
 
Hi Bo, I got this lens right at the end of my GH1 days so I only shot two projects with it. One was paid private gig which I cannot post, the other was a family thing which I am unwilling to post either.
Actually I am kicking myself for not having stuff I can share.

Once again, if there is an GH1 shooters in NYC who would like to meet up ...
 
Just picked up a GH1 ... omg I forgot how much I love this lens. Still planning to sell, will prolly post something soon.
