So read on my wearier travelers my brave Warriors of the world without your Canon F-1 or sign below get in line and enjoy this perfect prestigious package I'm offering to you today below. Canon's F-1 was the company's last purely mechanical SLR design. It's hefty, but with that heft comes reliability and durability meant for professional applications of the time, which ranged from taking pictures in -30℃/0℉ cold to the 90% humidity of a jungle to the extreme heat of the desert. These cameras can withstand being dropped (but don't). Technical specifications: Canon F-1 is a fully mechanical 35mm film SLR with a built-in TTL match-needle light metering system. It takes a Wein MRB625 Zing-Air Battery. The meter works with film speeds between 25 and 2000 ISO (with half-stops). The camera comes with an interchangeable prism viewfinder that produces 0.8x magnification on a 50mm lens and has excellent eye relief¹ for eyeglass wearers (it has 97% coverage). The standard finder can be replaced with an optional Canon Speed Finer (for even greater relief), a Waist-Level Finder, or a Servo EE Finder, which will make the F-1 a shutter-priority camera. F-1 uses a focal-plane shutter with a top speed of 1/2000s, flash sync at 1/60s and the slowest speeds being 1s and Bulb. This camera weighs 845g/30oz and measures 146mm × 104mm × 54mm (5.8" × 4.1" × 2.1") without a lens but with the stock finder mounted. The 10-second self-timer control on the front face of the camera doubles as a DOF preview when the top lever is pushed towards the lens. Mirror lock-up (for ultra-long exposures) is done with the same control by pushing the top lever towards the lens and then pulling the bottom lever towards the "M." A brief history of the F-1 and Canon's FD lens mount. The F-1 was introduced in 1971 and soon became Canon's first meaningful competitor to Nikon's popular "F" premium SLR line. With it, Canon launched the FD mount, which remained a standard for 16 years. Canon invested a lot of money and years of research into this new camera, with the objective of making it the best SLR possible. The F-1 was designed to dethrone Nikon's de facto F lineup, which was used by many (if not most) professionals at the time. Canon's new camera was promised to outlast 100,000 shutter fires, remain functional at temperatures ranging from -30 to 60℃ (0 to 148℉), and 90% humidity. Meanwhile, the new FD lens mount opened up a relatively affordable (in today's second-hand market) world of 68 lenses between 7.5mm and 800mm with new coatings and connections for shutter priority and even adapted aperture priority modes.
