Condition and what is included
Canon A-1 35mm SLR Film Camera with Canon FD 50mm f/1.8 Lens.
Vintage Canon A-1 35mm film camera paired with a Canon FD 50mm f/1.8 standard prime lens. The A-1 is a well-known electronically controlled SLR offering manual exposure along with multiple automatic exposure modes.
A new 6V battery has been installed. The shutter releases normally and the film advance lever operates as expected. However, the camera has not been tested with film, so actual photographic performance, metering accuracy and film transport have not been fully verified. It is therefore being sold as-is.
Condition
Great overall physical condition with no major visible damage or significant cosmetic imperfections.
The camera has been partially checked with a fresh battery. The shutter fires and the film advance lever operates normally, but it has not been film-tested.
The Canon FD 50mm f/1.8 lens is in good overall condition. The glass appears clean with no visible fungus, haze or significant internal dust observed. Focus and aperture controls appear physically intact.
Includes
Canon A-1 35mm film camera body. Canon FD 50mm f/1.8 lens. Canon front lens cap. New 6V battery installed. Not included: film, strap, case, original box, manuals or other accessories.
