Canon 'New' F1 35mm SLR Camera w/ 50mm f1.8 FD Lens
Condition: 8.5
The Canon F1, 'New F1', you can rest assured that this thing is a tank, I'd say even better built than the F3. Released in 1981 the camera is mainly battery operated but you can use this thing completely mechanically at 125th and above which is cool.
The camera itself is in great condition with brassing mainly to the corners and to the top of the prism and baseplate. The camera fires well at all speeds, meter works correctly and responds to light well and also changes when either the ASA or exposure comp dial are used. The cameras waist level finder is in good condition and so is the focusing screen, both are clean and mark free. The film bay is clean and the shutter is good, the wind on is smooth and the frame counter is working correctly, the prism has a mechanical curtain which stops stray light during long exposures, this is working correctly too.
The lens is the standard 50mm f1.8 which is clean with smooth focus, working apertures and clean and clear glass free from haze, fungus and scratches.
