For Sale Canon 1n

[dankapsner]

Canon 1n with strap and body cap. Very good condition. DISCLOSURE: I was not able to make the custom function shift the focus lock to the exposure lock button. I presume that doesn't work. Otherwise very good. Instructions included. Slight abrasion shown in photo.Slightly sticky near side door when I got it; cleaned this off with Goo Gone. I think I've run about a dozen rolls through it since last September with excellent results . Actually, it's one of the best cameras I've ever owned but I have too many and need to find a home for this. (No EOS lenses left, either.) $90.00 via PayPal, USPS priority mail delivery in US included.

Great camera! Its amazing that these can be had for this price anymore.

 

[dankapsner]

Yes. They used to cost a small fortune.

I don’t use Canons, have no lenses for them, but I am strongly considering getting this camera, just because... GAS is incurable!

Unless there is obvious physical damage (most unlikely in my long experience) or a known dysfunctional area behind the button, it might be that another function has doubled up on the combination you seek to change. Doubling up of custom functions (up to 3 levels) is common with the EOS 1N. I presume you have a chart of custom functions that can be referenced? If not, do a complete system reset with the white button inside the palm door.

Yes. They used to cost a small fortune.

Or a large fortune!?
Mine was $3,999 body only in 1994. Fat load of good a beautiful body was walking out of the shop (the camera, I mean!).
I still had to buy the power drive booster E1 ($799) and my first lens (EF 20mm f2.8), which I still use to this day. All of my EOS 1N kit and L-series lenses remain in use with the only service being to clean the upper viewfinder in April or May this year.

Thanks. I am not in a position to test this; I don't have a lens to put on it.

Obviously it's time to take the plunge!

A lens is not required for the system reset. Just a battery and a lens flange cap.

 

[dankapsner]

I reset but cannot test. Thanks!
