Very noisy when winding. But lightweight. I also struggle to press rewind release button at the bottom once film is done and that puts me off of this camera

A-1 since it has "program" setting as well as aperture priority.

55mm lenses for new F1 any recommendation?
dominik_m replied to monogatari's topic in Canon FD Mount
Hi. As said by John previously FL lenses will work with F-1 camera but with some hassle . Canon has made FD 55mm lenses , f/1.2 very decent ones, even non AL version however they are very big and heavy. -
It's amazingly good lens, I prefer to carry this lens around more than 1.2 L (since I am a mediocre photographer and I'm very clumsy). 35-105, 3.5 is my carry around but if you have room for more then most of Canon fd lenses starting at 7.5 mm and not finishing at 300mm L are good.

Another one, this time it was taken with Canon A1 and 35—105 / 3.5 lens. Film is Kodak Elite chrome expired in 2001 and processed yesterday by yours truly.

Canon F-1 New Stop down slide button

I've don e same thing with T90. Resulted in dreaded "EEEE" message, my heart stopped for the moment .... -
we use metric ;) Spend few dollars on a Wein-cell ( basically a hearing aid cell), use it and when depleted remove a metal washer from it. Hearing aid cell fits perfectly.

Yes, it would. To answer your other question, re voltage. Hearing aid cell delivers constant 1.4v ( if not mistaken), so in theory, yes it would affect light meter reading. But it would be negligible, besides given the age of your camera ( CdS light meters don't age well, besides they are rather slow to respond), and negative film latitude I would not worry too much. If roll you develop is off to your liking just adjust iso rating on your camera for next roll. It's a bit harder for alkaline cell though, they slowly drop voltage so results would not be consistent. Just don't worry, go out and shoot

This one on the ebay is just a spacer, actual adapter reducing voltage to 1.3 v would be around 30£. Hearing aid cell is much cheaper and works fine on its own in F-1

Canon EF,35mm/2.8 TS, Ektar 100. I've just obtained this lens, such fun to play with knobs! I need to read and understand instructions though
