Description from the seller

The camera has a reflex viewfinder with three rangefinders: a horizontally split image, surrounded by a ring of microprisms and Fresnel in the rest of the field; a TTL light meter with averaged measurement across the entire field but with emphasis on the center; a horizontal focal plane shutter with a moving curtain, capable of shutter speeds from 2 seconds to 1/1000, also bulb mode (which can be operated from the shutter button or from a threaded shutter cable attached to the center of the shutter button); an exposure counter; it syncs with the flash at 1/60; a hot shoe for flash; allows film sensitivity adjustment from ASA 25 to 1600; has an auto exposure with light and sound signals; features a backlight compensation button of 1 1/2 stops; a focal plane mark; a tripod thread; it is completely inoperable without its 6V 4LR44 battery and has a battery test button. There is a silver version (the most common) and a black one. The standard lens provided was the Canon FD 50mm 1:1.8.
