Canon AE-1 35mm SLR Film Camera + 50mm f/1.8 FD Lens

The Canon AE-1 + FD 50mm f/1.8 is about as classic as 35mm film photography gets. The AE-1 helped bring sophisticated SLR photography to a huge audience, and today it remains one of the easiest recommendations for anyone looking for a proper manual-focus film camera that is fun to use without being overly complicated.

The AE-1 offers shutter-priority automatic exposure along with full manual control, so it works equally well as a first film SLR or as an everyday shooter for someone already comfortable setting exposure. Pair that with Canon's compact FD 50mm f/1.8, and you've got a versatile setup for portraits, street photography, travel, photography classes, and general wandering-around-with-a-roll-of-film duties.

The 50mm f/1.8 is a great match for the body. It's small, fast enough for available-light shooting, and gives you plenty of subject separation when opened up while staying sharp and compact when stopped down.

Condition: EXCELLENT

This Canon AE-1 kit is in excellent condition and fully functional with minimal signs of normal use. The included Canon FD 50mm f/1.8 lens has slight internal haze. The haze is minor, though it may produce a small reduction in contrast or a bit of additional glow when shooting into strong light.

The camera's shutter, meter, film advance, and controls are all functioning properly, and the lens focuses smoothly with proper aperture operation.

Included:

• Canon AE-1 35mm SLR film camera
• Canon FD 50mm f/1.8 lens
