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

The Canon AE-1 Program + FD 50mm f/1.8 is one of the quintessential 35mm film camera kits, and for good reason. Canon took the already hugely successful AE-1 formula and added Program auto exposure, giving you a camera that can be as hands-off or as involved as you want it to be. Put it in Program mode and go shoot, or take control yourself when you want to slow things down.

The included Canon FD 50mm f/1.8 is a classic everyday prime with a bright aperture for lower-light shooting, portraits, and shallow depth of field. It is a compact pairing that works just as well for a first photography class as it does for someone looking to get back into shooting film.

Condition: GOOD

This camera is in good condition and fully operational. The film door shows some missing paint and other normal cosmetic wear consistent with use. It has received new light seals, and the light meter has been calibrated for accurate exposure readings.

The 50mm f/1.8 lens functions properly but has a noticeable spot of haze near the center of the optics. This can reduce contrast and may produce some additional glow or flare, particularly when shooting toward strong light sources.

Overall, this is a solid user-grade AE-1 Program kit with the important mechanical and metering functions sorted, while the optical condition of the lens keeps it at a more approachable price point.

Included:

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