Description
The Canon A-1, released in 1978, was the first SLR to offer full program automatic exposure alongside shutter priority, aperture priority and full manual, and it is the most capable camera of Canon's A series. Every setting is shown on an LED display in the viewfinder, and it remains a favourite for shooting FD lenses. This example has a clear lens and a freshly cleaned viewfinder eyepiece. It comes with the New FD 50mm f/1.4, the fast standard lens that makes the most of film in low light.
Shipping
We ship via DHL, EMS, UPS, or other DDU methods. Import duties and taxes are the responsibility of the buyer.
