*JUST SERVICED & FILM TESTED*
The Canon EOS-1 is a professional 35mm SLR film camera, paired with a Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II lens and Power Drive Booster for a complete, ready-to-shoot kit. Launched in 1989 as Canon's first true professional EOS body, it paired an all-electronic control layout with the speed and accuracy that photojournalists and studio shooters needed, and it remains one of the most capable 35mm SLR cameras a film photographer can put to work today - now bundled with a sharp everyday lens and a booster grip built for action.
✔ Fast, precise autofocus with a classic nifty-fifty – A cross-type BASIS sensor drives TTL phase-detection autofocus with One-Shot and predictive AI Servo modes, paired here with the included Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II - one of the sharpest, lightest EF lenses ever made at just 130g.
✔ Four professional metering modes – Choose from 6-zone evaluative, partial, spot or center-weighted averaging metering to match the way you read a scene, with exposure adjustable in precise 1/3-stop increments.
✔ Power Drive Booster E1 included – Adds a vertical grip with a secondary shutter button and control wheel for comfortable portrait-orientation shooting, and lifts continuous shooting to 5.5fps on 8x AA batteries.
✔ Extreme shutter speed range – A 1/8000 to 30 second shutter with 1/250 sec flash sync gives you the range to freeze fast action or shoot long exposures without missing a beat.
✔ Bright, 100% coverage viewfinder – The fixed eye-level pentaprism offers 0.72x magnification with virtually 100% frame coverage and built-in dioptric correction, so what you see is near exactly what you get on film.
✔ Rugged, professional build – A fibre-reinforced polycarbonate shell bonded to a die-cast metal chassis and lens mount gives the EOS-1 the durability professionals demanded, in a body lighter than its full-metal rivals.
Whether you're upgrading from an entry-level 35mm camera or adding a dependable workhorse to your kit, this Canon EOS-1 bundle delivers the autofocus speed, metering precision and rugged build that make it a standout among vintage camera classics - with a lens and Power Drive Booster grip already in the box, so you're ready to shoot everything from portraits to fast-paced sport on 35mm film from day one.
Battery Requirement – This reusable film camera operates with 1x 2CR5 6V lithium battery for the body (sold separately); the included Power Drive Booster E1 takes 8x AA batteries (sold separately).
