Quantaray Auto Zoom 28–80mm f/3.5–4.5 Macro Lens for Canon FD (AS-IS)
The Quantaray 28–80mm f/3.5–4.5 is a versatile standard-to-telephoto zoom lens designed for the classic Canon FD manual focus mount. Providing a highly useful focal range, this lens covers everything from wide-angle landscapes at 28mm to flattering portraits at 80mm. It also features a dedicated “Macro” mode, allowing photographers to get closer to their subjects for detailed close-up photography.

Versatile Standard Zoom & Macro Capability
All-In-One Focal Range: The 28–80mm range is the ideal “walk-around” focal length for vintage film photography, offering the flexibility to capture broad scenes and tight details without changing lenses.

Macro Functionality: This lens includes a specialized macro setting that increases its magnification capabilities, making it a great tool for capturing textures, flowers, and small objects.

Tactile Manual Control: Featuring a robust construction typical of its era, this lens offers a weighted, tactile manual focus and zoom experience that appeals to film enthusiasts and digital adapters alike.

Canon FD Mount: Native to the legendary Canon FD system, this lens is compatible with classic bodies like the AE-1, A-1, and F-1, and can be easily adapted to modern mirrorless cameras.

Condition & Functionality Note (AS-IS)
Please read carefully before purchasing: This lens is being sold in AS-IS condition due to internal optical imperfections.

Optical Condition: The internal glass elements show a visible presence of haze and dust. These conditions will likely result in a “soft focus” effect, reduced contrast, and increased flaring when shooting toward light sources.

Functional Condition: Mechanically, the lens still works. The zoom and focus rings rotate as intended, and the aperture diaphragm is operational.

Creative Potential: This lens is an excellent choice for photographers seeking a “lo-fi” or “dreamy” vintage aesthetic, for those interested in learning lens repair and cleaning, or as a source for mechanical spare parts.
