Canon A1 SLR

[frankyrivera]

So I have a Canon SLR 35mm Camera, Old School Film not digital that I'm looking to sell so that i can buy myself a new Nikon Macro lens. The new Macro lens is very expensive so I'm looking to soften the blow my helping someone get a great camera while helping me raise the money i need for my new lens. I'm looking for $300 for the full Bag. Included you will get;

A Canon A1 35 mm Body
100-300mm Lens
2x teleconverter
An f-2.8 35mm fixed lens
An f-1.4 50mm fixed lens
A Hotshoe shoe Flash
A camera bag that carries all
A tripod and color gels for flash

I know everyone wants digital but this is a great camera, Unfortunately i own 3 SLR's and no Macro Lenses. So I've decided to part with this one. Thanks for Looking

If memory Serves, as I myself Have an AE-1 the lenses will work on a DSLR BUT you need an adapter as the AE-1 lenses are Fd series and the DSLR takes E*- series lenses. but they WILL work they will just be Manuel focus and zoom as on the regular SLR

Hope this helps, and it is a PHENOMENAL Camera!!

Thanks norrin and you are right the picture quality from that 1.4 lens is razor sharp and being that the 35 mm lens is way bigger than a digital aps c size sensor. A great buy for anyone wanting to get onto SLR before dropping some big coin on the digital one. They can always reuse the lens and 1.4 digital lens are big bucks. Most people can barely get the 2.8

no... the lenses for the canon A1 wont work on anything new and digital they are all manual focus F Series lenses, you dont want to use the so called adapter.

 

[frankyrivera]

I've used the lenses on newer bodies u just can't auto focus which is done u can always manually focus no big deal. I'm trying to sell as a package so that you can use it primarily with the A1 body. Serious buyers only thanks lets try and not derail the original purpose of this thread

When was the last time you used it? Is everything in working order?
