# Kameken CANON FL 50mm F1.8 CANON FL Mount Accessories: F&R caps, dedicated hood There appears to have been mold on both the front and rear elements, and there are some signs of erosion. The mold itself has been removed, but I don't recommend it for those who are concerned. Also, there seems to be some dust, but it doesn't seem to be reflected in the sample images. This lens is said to be a Japanese-made Biotar, and its greatest charm is said to be its strong swirly bokeh. You can see it clearly by looking at the image of the fallen autumn leaves, where the background bokeh is extremely lemon-shaped. This looks swirly depending on the composition, and it's a matter of taste whether you like lenses with strong characteristics. Also, shooting at night on a sidewalk with the aperture wide open allows you to enjoy a soft, diffused depiction of light. It's not a lens that you have to strain to use like an F1.4 or F1.2, but rather it's fun to use casually for street snaps, so please consider it. This FL lens has a stepped part on the mount side, like a flare cutter, and I don't think it can be attached to commercially available FD mounts. You can use it by simply removing the screw that controls the aperture pin of the mount adapter, but if you're unsure about this explanation, please research it on YouTube or elsewhere before purchasing. The K&F mount adapter can be removed with a Phillips screwdriver, but some other companies' products may not be removable. The reason why tissue (specifically Kimwipes) is pushed in to fix the pin in the image is because the aperture is controlled here. I used Kimwipes, which have little fluff, to push it in temporarily, but if you don't like the look, you can also adjust it with a rubber sheet.
