Canon FTb QL + FL 1,8/50mm | Αναλογική φωτογραφική μηχανή

Canon FTb QL with FL 50mm f/1.8, tested and working.

Hello from Japan!
We provide high-quality cameras and lenses to the world.

The Canon FTb QL (1971) is a robust, all-mechanical 35mm SLR with TTL metering and Canon's Quick Loading system for fast, reliable film loading. It accepts both the FD lenses of its own era and the earlier FL series. Offered here with the Canon FL 50mm f/1.8 — the standard lens of the preceding generation, which mounts and shoots on the FTb but meters at working aperture rather than wide open.

Important — please read carefully:
Please read carefully. The battery check does not respond, and the prism shows deterioration which you will see when composing — it does not affect the film. The included lens is a Canon FL 50mm f/1.8, from the generation before FD: it mounts and shoots on the FTb, but you meter at working aperture rather than wide open, so the viewfinder darkens as you stop down. It also has haze around the edge of the rear element. The shutter itself fires correctly at all speeds — see the measured figures above — and fresh light seals have been fitted. Please review the photos before bidding.
