For sale, clean, working Canon AE1 Program, no squeal, good meter, good shutter, very good+ cosmetic condition, with a very nice Canon FD 50/1.8 lens with clean, clear optics, fungus and defect-free, and with an oil-free aperture. Also includes a good, working Speedlite 188A flash, cosmetically excellent, some cleaned-up corrosion in the battery compartment, but the flash fires and cycles rapidly.

This camera is cosmetically excellent with the exception of some scuffing on the rewind crank, and a scratch on the left side of the bottom plate. It is mechanically and electronically sound, with no "Canon squeal", and has an accurate light meter and shutter. I will also ship the user's manuals for both the camera and the flash.

$65 + $11 shipping for US buyers. Shipping to Canada via USPS priority mail is $28. International buyers, please contact me for rates and method. Payment by PayPal unless other arrangements are discussed via PM.
 
🛡️ Classifieds Safety Reminder: Please stay safe when buying and selling. Scams via hacked accounts are on the rise globally.

Best Practices: Always use a verified payment method with buyer protection (avoid "PayPal Friends & Family"). Services like Escrow.com are highly secure. Be suspicious of random unsolicited contact via Private Message. If you see suspicious behavior, please use the Report link on the post immediately.

Great combo. I just sold mine, with the same lens, to a friend for about the same price. It is a good price for such a potent, yet simple, setup.

It really does make taking good pictures almost too easy. I debated keeping this Canon over a nice Sears/Ricoh "K" mount camera (I am trying to limit myself to one M42 body and one "other" bayonet mount system), and the K mount won only because there are so many good, cheap Pentax and third-party K mount lenses available, even though this Canon is probably the better camera.
