Canon AE-1 35mm Film SLR Camera with Canon FD 50mm F/1.8 Fast Prime Lens, Cap, and Battery
Here we have a gorgeous condition, fully functional Canon AE-1 camera with a Canon new FD 50mm F/1.8 fast prime lens, lens cap, and battery.
This camera is fully functional, and ready to produce another lifetime of fantastic photos.
Mechanically excellent, everything here functions as it should. The film compartment, pressure plate, mirror box, battery compartment, focusing screen, pentaprism, and viewfinder are all clean. The dials, knobs, and levers all actuate exactly as they should. The light meter is fully functional, and all shutter speeds are accurate.
The lens is similarly excellent, with no damage or mechanical issues. The glass elements are free of fungus, balsam separation, cleaning marks, scratches, or other optical aberrations. The aperture blades are oil free and actuate beautifully. The focus ring spins with nice weight, and the aperture ring clicks with mechanical precision.
The included lens is a 50mm focal length fast prime lens from Canon. This makes it a versatile lens capable of shooting many styles of photography. It can be used equally well for landscapes, city shooting, architectural work, standard photography, street photography, wildlife, nature, portraits, and more. A maximum aperture of F/1.8 allows for capable subject isolation and low light capability. Stopped down the lens becomes incredibly sharp. Flaring, ghosting, and chromatic aberration are well-checked.
Cosmetically the camera is in excellent condition with normal signs of light wear commensurate with age (camera is over 40 years old, but still exceptionally beautiful).
The AE-1 is the camera that made Canon a powerhouse amongst SLR producers, and signaled their intent as a world-class camera maker.
This camera is perfect for anyone, from the new student to the advanced photographer. It can do everything any shooter will ask of it.
