Description
This Vivitar 300mm f/5.6 lens provides significant telephoto reach for the Canon FD system. The f/5.6 aperture is typical for consumer-grade 300mm prime lenses of the era, balancing size, weight, and cost. Vivitar lenses from this period varied in origin and quality; some were excellent, others were merely adequate. A 300mm lens is well-suited for wildlife, sports from a distance, and compressing perspective in landscapes. This lens would feature an automatic diaphragm compatible with FD cameras.
