Film photography is slowly becoming a lost art. Go against the tide and capture life's moments with a mint, vintage Canon AE-1 SLR film camera. Hear the shutter click as you take black and white photos of your loved ones. Focus the 50mm f/1.8SC lens on the horizon and shoot beautiful color landscapes.

    Great camera

    This is my first camera and I was expecting it to be a hard learning curve but this camera is pretty easy to use and the lens is perfect for all the pictures I've wanted to do so far. adjusting aperature, shutter speed, and iso are all easy to do and image quality is great. though the built in light meter is a little hard to use at times.

    Great Camera But...

    The camera is in great shape and it did come with 2 lenses but only one of them goes to the camera that I purchased. To use the lense I'd have to pay $50+ for an adaptor. I'm pleased with the camera itself but saddened by the fact that I cannot use it yet unless I bring out the large 70-210mm lens.

  • If you enjoy vintage SLRs, get it. It's a fun camera that's easy to use!

    I've always been a Nikon girl, but when a friend recommended that I try the AE-1, I couldn't resist. I purchased one on eBay and tried it out (and quickly decided to buy another AE-1 and also a TX). It feels great in my hands. What is it comparable to? Hmmm, my Nikon EM, feels about the same as that, as far as the weight, appearance, and ease of use go. Let's see the pros--very easy to use. If you've ever used a manual camera, you can use this. Like I said, it is on a bit heavier side, but it has that substantial feel, not the flimsy plastic stuff. The lens changes out effortlessly. All the controls--apertures, shutter speed, zoom, focus--everything is pretty simple. Film winds easily. There's one or two cons I have to mention though. The lid for the ...

  • Amazing.

    I've only recently started photography and this is my second camera(i'll have 2 of these, soon), so i have nothing to compare against and little knowledge however i will try and explain what i think of it. Please read other reviews before buying. Features- The canon ae-1 program differ a bit from its predecessor over that fact that it has the program mode which automatically choses shutter speed and aperture for you. This mode i think is the only difference between these two. It also allow for shutter speed priority which allows the user to choose a shutter speed and the camera automatically chooses an aperture to compensated for optimum exposure. It has a flash sync of 60, max shutter speed of 1/1000 and iso setting ranging from 12-3200. It also allow aperture preview when ...

  • I felt it's a bit more than I excepted

    Firstly, it worth each penny, and I felt it's a bit more than I excepted. You shouldn't use the Canon AE-1 until you've read the manual and are sure you know how to load and unload film, check for battery strength, and set the aperture, shutter speed, and film speed. But once you know where everything is, the Canon AE-1 is very easy to use, and its controls are more clearly labeled and intuitive to use than those of the majority of more modern cameras. As an SLR camera, the Canon AE-1 may be mounted with a variety of lenses from close-up to telephoto, and Canon offers a wide variety of excellent lenses. You can find used Canon AE-1 cameras in excellent condition on Ebay and elsewhere for well under $100. You can also get lenses and other accessories at very low ...
