This is a Canon AV1 with 50/1.8 and 28/2.8 lenses that came from APUG member Hectorpaljr.
The maual can be found here
I want to give this away to someone in the UK who is new to film, who perhaps currently has a unreliable or crappier camera than this or maybe even has only a digi camera and dreams of film. Please let this one pass if you already have a good camera. Please let this one pass if you will put it onto ebay next weekend and turn a profit.
The camera body is aperture priority and working fine. The light seals are shot but that doesn't seem to impact performance at all. This camera is film tested. Once you've got the hang of this and then grown beyond its limitations (you can't select shutter speeds) then maybe a F1 or even T90 would be a nice progression. Both lenses are in great condition and together make a nice combination of normal and wide.
In return for this kit, which I'll post out for free, I'd like the new owner to do this:
Keep us up to date with how you get on.
Please reply below if you want this - no pms on this please.
