Now that all the big canon FD telephotos can be easily converted to EF with the EdMika adapter for a couple hundred dollars I can't see much or a reason to buy it for that kind of coin any more.

I meant if they made it as an EF mount, but thanks for looking! Gripped 50D, 24-105 f/4 L, 70-200 f/4 L, EF-S 17-85, 50 f/1.8 II "L"

exactopposite Mostly Lurking 18 posts Joined Feb 2011 Location: Philadelphia More info | Jun 01, 2013 12:18 | #39 I have a 35-105 f3.5-5.6 which used the AFD type motor for focus. I guess it's not rare per se but they were only in production a year or so before being replaced with the USM version. It doesn't have a zoom ring. You push/pull it to zoom.

The 100-200 f4.5 A might be upt here with the rarest lenses. I've never heard of anyone using it. Note the lack of a focus ring - it's AF only. (of course there are 3 on ebay now that I check... ![]() ![]() EF 100-200 was one on the first lens I acquired several years ago. I just recently sold it on ebay, go figure! 7DMK2 I EF 24-105 F4L I CANON 70-200 2.8L IS USM II

BearSummer Senior Member ![]() 925 posts Likes: 12 Joined Jul 2003 Location: South East UK More info | Well the 50 f1.0 and the 200 1.8 are quite rare but do pop up on he second hand market from time to time. Strangely I saw a 200 1.8 for £3k yesterday, only the third I've ever seen "in the flesh". First had a scratched front element, second I bought and third has pride of place on the second hand shelf. Moderation is for people that can't handle excess.
