Hi, I am selling my Canon A-1 camera and it's 3 lenses as a group. The camera was CLA'd back in 2008 and used sparingly since then, but exercised regularly. It works as it should and all 3 lenses work properly on it. The 50mm lens is a 1.8, very sharp. The 28mm lens is a "Focal" so not the highest quality there is but made in Japan and sure to give excellent results. The "close-focus" zoom lens, 75-205mm, is in fine working order with smooth focusing and zoom action. It is a Vivitar lens so again, very sharp. It has a couple very small edge chips to the glass of the front or second element. These might be visible in the pic of the front element at the 3-oclock and 9 oclock positions if you look at the very edge. These actually have never caused any issues with the picture quality. In any case, the inclusion of these 2 lenses, the wide angle and the zoom, do not add much dollar value but will add shooting value to the set. The camera operates great, no squeeks, no hiccups, no rough spots. The viewfinder is clean and clear. The meter works and seems very accurate. All 3 lenses have mounts and apertures and focusing actions that work properly with no issues. All 3 lenses have clean and sparkling clear glass except for the zoom issue mentioned. This is a very complicated camera (more like a computer) and you can get a manual from butkus.org for it, very detailed. And consider sending him a few dollars when you get the manual, he has a great site that I hope stays on the world wide web forever. The camera has a new battery in it and I'll add another new one for the future. I'd like to get $200 for this set but will consider offers. I'll pay shipping (in USA) and I prefer F&F payment. Thanks, Bob.
