Canon F-1 SLR camera

One of the most stylish SLRs ever made, the Canon F-1 is a beautiful camera to use. It was in production for a full 10 years from 1971 until 1981, underlining its status as one of the key professional cameras of the era.

It operates in full manual mode, with the built-in light meter. The viewfinder has the match needle system, but also displays the selected shutter speed. 

It has a lovely slick wind / shutter release action, and can operate without batteries (only the meter uses battery power).

Has a removable prism, and many different focusing screens available along with a huge range of professional accessories.

The camera operates fully mechanically, and only uses the battery for the light meter. The F-1 is fairly sensitive to battery voltage so we recommend using either a Wein Cell or a 1.35v battery adaptor for meter accuracy.

Supplied as body only.

Condition

• Some rubbing to paint on camera corners
