Pros: Excellent electronics, milestone in its field, ergonomic, fast with its motor drive, full optional.
Cons: Need to know the various functions, study of the mandatory manual.
Opinion: A machine that looked like a spaceship, for the time, my first reflex, my mother bought it when I was 12 years old, without a goal, for that I had to wait a month, given the finances of the house, otherwise I would have to fall back on an AE1 Program, but I did not, expected a month for the 50th 1.8. The camera was a standard reference of electronics applied to an SRL. Bright sight with led in red, automatic time priority, diaphragm, scheduled AE, manual, AE stopped down and AE flash, with CAT system, Canon Auto Tuning. The only one in the world, at the time, that could exhibit to 12800 ASA. Ergonomic and pleasant to the grip, it had the action grip, removable, equal to that of the AE1 Program, could be equipped with the ma motor drive and reach the gust of 5 fps, with battery magazine MA, with 16 stylus stacks. The competition, at the time, took out the Nikon FA and the Pentax Super A, but the A1 remained up there, a star. My first photos in Rome, in Villa Borghese, I met a couple of foreigners, he was 50 years old ca., I 12, we had around the neck the A1 both, he looked at me and said, for me it is a great car but for you, child, and raised his arms to the sky , he was right. I'm sorry to be biased, but for me, it remains the most beautiful camera in the world. |
