Canon A1 Vintage 35mm SLR Film camera 501901 *READ*

The Canon A-1 is an advanced-level single-lens reflex (SLR) 35 mm film camera for use with interchangeable lenses. It was manufactured by Canon Camera K. K. (today Canon Incorporated) in Japan from March 1978 to 1985. It employs a horizontal cloth-curtain focal-plane shutter with a speed range of 30 to 1/1000 second plus bulb and flash synchronization speed of 1/60 second. It has dimensions of 92 millimetres (3.6 in) height, 141 millimetres (5.6 in) width, 48 millimetres (1.9 in) depth and 620 grams (22 oz) weight. Unlike most SLRs of the time, it was available in only one color; all black.
The A-1 is a historically significant camera. It was the first SLR to offer an electronically controlled programmed autoexposure mode. While the Minolta XD came out in 1977 with electronic control exposure modes, specifically Aperture Priority, Shutter Priority, Full Manual modes, as well as an "off the modev dial" full program exposure mode, the Canon A-1 offered "Program" mode. Instead of the photographer picking a shutter speed to freeze or blur motion and choosing a lens aperture f-stop to control depth of field (focus), the photographer relied on the A-1's microprocessor to automatically select a compromise exposure based on light meter input. Virtually all cameras today have at least one program mode.
This Particular camera overall is in very good condition, Each Feature in this camera works as it should. Advanced lever pulls nicely. Film counter works as well as film winder is good. Viewfinder is relatively clean. Light meter works and new light seal has been sealed. Also, self timer works in this camera as well.
This Camera only operates in AV mode and light meter works perfectly fine on AV mode. The TV mode seems to be have an issue and mirror will sticks up on each speed so i would recommend using this SLR in AV mode only, Please mindful when purchasing this item.
