Canon AE-1 35mm SLR + 50mm f1.8 Lens

The Canon AE-1 is a true icon of 35mm photography. First released in 1976, it was the first SLR camera to be controlled entirely by a microprocessor, bringing auto exposure to the masses. With its classic styling, intuitive layout, and legendary reliability, it's still one of the best cameras for beginners and experienced shooters alike.

Paired here with the sharp and lightweight Canon FD 50mm f/1.8, this setup is an ideal daily carry for street photography, portraits, travel, or your first photo class. The AE-1 offers aperture-priority shooting and full manual control, along with a satisfying shutter sound and legendary Canon ergonomics.

This Canon AE-1 is in excellent condition, with minimal cosmetic wear and smooth controls throughout.

A fantastic, ready-to-shoot example of one of the most beloved SLRs of the film era.
