(frequently missing from these cameras)Camera background: The Canon AV-1 was introduced by Canon in May 1979, 3 years after the introduction of the highly successful AE-1. The AV-1 is a Aperture-Priority 35 mm SLR with a focal plane shutter and TTL metering. It does not have a manual exposure mode. Canon produced this camera in response to the overseas demand (led by the US)for an aperture priority AE camera which were in the majority of sales in these markets at this time. Canon changed the battery door to stronger door which also provides more hand grip and added electrical support for the Canon Power Winders with the AV-1. This was a highly successful addition to the Canon line. Condition of this camera: Optics: Very good to excellent condition. Viewfinder is in excellent condition - clear and bright with no dust evident.Lens is in very good to excellent condition - no cleaning marks/fungus/scratches. Very small amount of fine dust (very hard to see - must backlight to see any).
