Canon New F-1 

This is the Canon F-1N camera, the top of the Canon line after it was introduced in 1981. It accepts all FL and FD lenses (not EOS) and is manual focus only. Loved by pros for it tank-like construction and complete reliability under the most adverse of conditions, not much has changed since it was first produced. Many pros still use theirs every working day and many say this is the finest film camera Canon ever made. The number of accessories you can get for this beauty approach the infinite.

 Includes the box and packaging, plastic bottom protector, AE Finder FN, body cap, all 3 motor drive port covers, PC sync cover, eye ring, instruction manual, lens booklet and dedicated black and grey shoulder strap. 

One of the most collectable of the classic SLRs, each year the F-1N in fine shape gets harder and harder to find. This one has seen almost no use, is working perfectly in every regard and is in MINT condition. It is suitable for the most discriminating collector.

Specifics of this camera: (scale of 1-10)

Optical --10   All glass is perfect-crystal clear. No haze, no scratches, no fungus, no spots, no marks, no dust. NO anomalies of any kind. The mirror, the viewfinder and the focusing screen are pristine.

Mechanical --10   All mechanical parts work perfectly, the bayonet mount is as new, the shutter is perfect, the self-timer and mirror lockup work fine, so does the flash sync. Light seals and mirror foam are fresh. The lightmeter is right on against a Gossen Luna Pro. There are no loose or missing parts. ALL mechanical functions and controls work just as they should. 

Cosmetic --9++   No dents or dings, no scratches or brassing. There is no wear on the door hinge or edge nor any at the corners by the eyelets or anywhere else. The matte black finish is deep black and pristine, even on the bottom plate. The white printing is full, bright and crisp.  

Please check the photos carefully, the Canon F-1N in mint condition is rarely seen. 

    All in all an amazing example of this 27 year old classic, and it will outlive another 234 Rebels.

CAMERA BUYERS TIP #1: Older cameras (such as this one) have many potential issues. A partial list of the most common defects would include: deteriorating light seals and/or mirror foam, internal dirt or dust on the prism or focusing screen, sluggish mirror return, inaccurate shutter speeds, dead or inaccurate light meter, shorted electronics, stripped film advance gears. The charges to fix ANY of these problems usually starts at about $75.00 and escalates upwards from there (and that is just the labor). If parts are required most often the camera cannot be repaired as parts have not been available for a decade. Its a wonderful thing that these cameras were made so well that if handled properly they will last another generation or more. It is important to you that when you buy a used camera you have an inspection period and the total right of return. If not you may get lucky and get a camera with no issues (in my experience that would be VERY lucky) more likely you will have a servicing bill that is equal to or more than the cost of the camera.
