Happy SUNday!

Chris and Carol

This is the last Canon EF 35mm film camera in my collection. I’ve owned quite a few over the years, but I kept this one because it’s in mint condition and works perfectly. This EF was made in early 1976. It’s affectionally know as the Black Beauty.

It’s a very close cousin to the Canon F-1. The original F-1 was released in March 1971. The EF made its appearance in November 1973.
It’s one of the most underrated cameras of the 1970s, and in some ways was better than the F-1 straight out of the box.

If you’re looking to add a classic film camera from the seventies, the Canon EF is worth the chase!

Thanks for stopping by, Chris
