Canon 200mm f2.8 S.S.C. Lens

The Canon 200mm f/2.8 S.S.C. is a manual focus telephoto prime lens built for Canon’s FD mount film SLR system, featuring Canon’s Super Spectra Coating applied to the optical elements for improved flare resistance and color transmission. At 200mm with an f/2.8 maximum aperture, it delivers a dedicated telephoto focal length with a notably fast maximum aperture for its focal length, well suited to portraiture, sports, wildlife, and event photography where strong light gathering capability and meaningful background separation are priorities. The 200mm f/2.8 S.S.C. is well regarded within the Canon FD lens lineup for its optical performance and fast aperture, and remains a sought-after option among photographers adapting vintage FD glass to modern mirrorless systems. Fully manual operation covers both focus and aperture adjustment directly on the lens. Compatible with Canon FD-mount film SLR bodies, and adaptable to mirrorless and other camera systems via third-party FD mount adapters.
