Canon was the official 35mm camera of the 1984 Olympics held in Los Angeles.
Canon New F-1. A complete redesign of the original F-1 from 1971.
Beautiful camera.
A well used Canon F-1 on the left (just the right amount of brassing). The camera on the left has the eye-level finder and the one on the right has the AE finder.
And here’s another limited edition F-1 from 1978. Only about 2000 were made in this distinctive olive drab color with this super cool box, special strap and matching OD camera case. Also known as the Canon ODF-1. It appears that this version of the F-1 was only available for sale in Japan.

Wow A both versions have their own personality and I can see why some nature photographers might like the olive theme – hmmm

Thanks for your comments. The only other thing that Canon could have done was to make their FD lenses in a matching olive drab (which they didn’t). That would have made a great nature photographer’s combo.
