My collection of Canon A Series (without the A1 which is poorly). So here we have an AE1, one of the best selling consumer SLRs of it's day, an AT1, an AV1, an AL1 (with winder) which was Canon's first venture into autofocus as it had a focus confirm system to tell the user when the lens had focused correctly and sometimes it even worked, and then my favourite of them all the AE1 Program. They all get used from time to time as I still love film despite the convenience of digital.
@cashew Thank you for your fav and comment. My first "real" SLR was the Canon AE1 Program which I part exchanged many years ago. Back in the 1980s and 90s I owned all of these cameras at one time or another and a few years ago I thought I would purchase an example of each for old times sake. Having bought them I felt it only right to use them which I continue to do from time to time. They are not all mint but are in great condition apart from the AL1 which has a battery door that won't stay shut hence the winder. In addition to these I also have an EF, T90 and two F1s and that's before we start on the EOS range of film cameras. My partner thinks I have too many cameras but she's definitely wrong!!!
