ITEM(s) CONDITION:

OPTICALLY: EXCELLENT / EXCELLENT+
all lenses from this set do NOT have deep scratches, deep cleaning marks, cracks or any other serious damages on glasses; there are NO fungus (except 58/1.2 lens - read our description to the end, please), mold, fog (except 100/2 lens - read our description to the end, please), haze, separations or any other serious damages inside optical construction in most lenses from this set; all lenses can have some MICRO cleaning marks here and there, but mostly not visible by naked eye, faint ones, which are normal in vintage lenses, especially, that this set is from 60's, so it is quite normal, it will have some signs of use on glasses or inside optical construction; lenses can have few MICRO marks/spots on glasses coatings, but it is quite normal and even new lenses sometimes have them; lenses have some MICRO pieces of dust inside optical construction, but nothing to worry about; optical issues showed with detailed LED lamp test: 1) 19mm lens has micro grease spot (?) on the edge of one of it's inner glasses; 2) 28mm lens has weathered paint on one of it's inner glasses, with few lighter spots on it, but we do not even think this is optical issue, we just think we should mention about it; 3) 58mm lens has few micro spots of faint fungus marks under front glass edge; this issue is visible just under strong LED light and not visible on movie material during tests; lens has also few cleaning marks inside optical construction; 4) 100mm lens has some fogging under front glass or somewhere inside optical construction, not haze, but maybe grease steam, that is there from aperture grease, hard to say, without opening this lens; this lens has also some cleaning marks on front glass and inside optical construction, faint ones of course, not deep ones; this lens also has few marks/spots on it's coating, usually inside optical construction; 4) 135mm lens has some fogging under rear glass or somewhere inside optical construction, also not haze, but probably grease steam, that is there from aperture grease, hard to say, without opening this lens; againnote, that is set of lenses from late 60's and they are still in excellent condition for their age, with just MINIMAL issues on glasses; please, note, that LED test is critical test and even new lenses has some issues to pass it; we just want to be 100% honest with Buyer, so we did around 30 min LED test with all lenses from the set. we've spent around 3 minutes per lens to check and describe them good; all those 'issues' are NOT visible on movie material, as it was checked many times, during filming and lenses are still in really good optical shape for their age for sure

MECHANICALLY: EXCELLENT / EXCELLENT+
focus rings in all lenses from this set works smooth, with no issues; we've checked all lenses with manual and electronic follow focus units and they all work really good; aperture rings in all lenses works fine, with no issues; lenses has genuine CANON FD mounts, they are NOT converted to CANON EF mounts
; there's no oil on aperture blades in almost all lenses; mechanical issues, that we've found after detailed evaluation: 1) 58mm lens has few spots of grease on aperture blades, they still open / close without any problem, but it may need cleaning in future; 2) 100mm lens works smooth, but a bit harder, than other lenses from this set; this lens also works a bit unregular in few places, but usually longer lenses (like tele lenses) works like this, so nothing to worry about; 3) 135mm lens has few marks of grease on aperture blades, they still open / close without any problem, but it may need cleaning in future; 4) ALL lenses have standard 'breathing' when focusing, so they have minimal backlash / play during it; this is normal in this type of lenses and we do not even think, it is an issue here, as those lenses works like that and there's nothing you can do about it; they are just not very expensive cinema lenses, but standard photo lenses, so to have perfect working condition, you need to spend thousands per lens for re-housing, as standard housings are like they are; 5) ALL lenses have some grease on their bayonet mounts, so this could be a sign, that they were not used for some time and may need cleaning in future, as this grease can be (or even is now) on aperture blades or it's steam can be on lens glasses; we mention about all this, as we want to be 100% honest with Buyer; we've also did around half an hour ff unit test + hand test to all lenses, so we've noticed even MICRO backlash in all lenses from this set; note, that this is old, vintage set (lenses are from 60's!), so it still works great for it's age for sure

VISUALLY: EXCELLENT / EXCELLENT+
all lenses from this set have LIGHT to NORMAL signs of use on their casings, as can be seen on REAL pictures under this description; in general, this set is still in excellent or even better visual condition for it's age for sure (again, this is set from late 60's); there are NO serious damages on lenses casings, but like in old lenses, there can be few of them, like deeper scratch here and there or really micro dents / cracks on casing, but they are minimal, almost not noticeable and there's nothing to worry about, as if they are there, they are just visual issues; we recommend to check over 80 pictures of the set, evaluate them and decide, what you think about this set by yourself
