If you have a complete Canon FD 400mm f/2.8L Lens with its Case you are willing to part with, I am interested.
Just looked on Ebay. There's 1 listed at $4150.00 but, it's in Japan. It does include free shipping. All the rest were over $9,000.00. You can get 1 new from B&H for $9,999.00. They're in stock & you get free expedited shipping. You should have it in about 3 days.
Are they FD or EF Version Lenses? I'm looking for the FD Version!
Yeah, I've seen that one but thanks for your response. Have a good day.

That lens from B&H looks pretty good and it's a 9. Maybe you could say how much your willing to spend. I don't think you'll find anyone willing to sell a 9 for much less. I hope you too have a good day and are successful in your search.
Thanks for your information. I hope you have a great day. Don

If you haven't already done so, look at K E H web site. They frequently have this lens, the case may be a snag. Good luck hunting, these guys get lots of oldies in the FD mount.
I have a 600 FD with extenders and case that I have been thinking about selling. I know you said 400 but if you could use a like new 600 I have one.
I forgot to mention I also have the adapter that allows you to put it on a EOS mount.
What are you asking for it?

I think I have 2 1.4 extender a 2x and a 3x extender the Ed Mika solid brass adapter with the chip that you can program so you can use it on other FD Lens it will tell the camera what aperture the lens is.
Now he makes one that cost far less but it is some kind of nylon or plastic not Brass.
This adapter allows the lens to focus to infinity with NO glass the cheap ones with the glass suffers from poor image quality this one has no glass.
Some lens will not focus to infinity without internal modifications but some will focus it depends on how the stop was set at the factory. My lens will focus beyond infinity no modifications needed.
The Lens is a rare model some were built with a super coating they are marked with SSC on them this is a SSC lens.
I have seen the case alone sell for $350.00 on eBay my case looks nearly new.
All the glass is mint lens body has no scratches or paint missing.
If you want it all I will sell for $1595.00 this very rare lens should bring more than that I know I paid much more than that.
Only reason I'm considering selling is I bought a new canon 600mm f4 auto focus lens it is better for birds in flight.
Let me think about it since I hadn't really considered a 600mm Lens. I do thank you for your response and time. Have a good evening and weekend. I'll get back to you if I am interested. Don

Depends on what you want to shoot.
I shoot eagles I always used a TC on this lens and on my new 600 hard to get too long when shooting wildlife.
600 FD with TC
Nice photo, what does the Lens and Case weigh?
