Canon EF black body with Canon 50mm F1.4 S.S.C lens. very nice and complete set.

The Canon EF is a manual focus 35mm reflex camera produced by Canon between 1973 and 1978. It was compatible with Canon FD mount lenses. The EF was built as an electronic version of Canon s top of the line F-1 camera. Unlike the F-1 , the EF das not support any motor drive for film transport. Neither does it provide any interchangeable view finder. The Canon EF contained a silicon photo cell light meter with a range of EV 18 to EV 2 which measured light in a central emphasis metering pattern with lens influence from the top of the frame, to minimize under exposure due to a bright skyline. When used in automatic mode it is possible to lock the current aperture value, then recompose the picture if desired. Automatic exposure required the FD mount lenses. Using manual exposure and stooped down metering the Canon EF could also be used with the older FL mount lenses.
