The camera shows normal signs of light use and cosmetic surface wear consistent with its age. The viewfinder is clear, and the digital LED display is bright and responsive. The shutter fires correctly across all speeds, and the film transport mechanism is smooth. A battery from May 2011 (dated 22-7) was previously installed but has been removed to ensure the compartment remains clean.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eSpecialist Note\u003c\/b\u003e \"The A-1 is the 'Swiss Army Knife' of the film world. What I love about this model is the blacked-out aesthetic; it looks just as modern today as it did in 1978. It’s a rugged, honest piece of Japanese engineering that paved the way for modern DSLRs. While the battery door on this unit requires a little care, the camera itself is a powerhouse of features. For anyone looking for a 'do-it-all' film camera that can grow with your skills, the A-1 remains one of the best investments you can make.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"8\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"9\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"9,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"9,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eCanon A-1\u003c\/b\u003e 35mm SLR Body (S\/N: 923406)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"9,1,0\"\u003eOriginal \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"9,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"9\"\u003eCanon A-1\u003c\/b\u003e User Manual\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"9,2,0\"\u003eBody Cap\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"10\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,0,0\"\u003eBrand: \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"7\"\u003eCanon\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,1,0\"\u003eModel: \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"7\"\u003eA-1\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,2,0\"\u003eCamera Type: 35mm SLR Camera\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,3,0\"\u003eLens Mount: Canon FD Mount\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,4,0\"\u003eShutter Speeds: 30s – 1\/1000s + B\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,5,0\"\u003eExposure Modes: Program, Tv, Av, Manual\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,6,0\"\u003eCategory: 1.
