Old meets new. New F-1 with my original FD 24mm f2.8 SSC lens and a Speedlite 533G set.

I’ve wanted to use this flash with my F-1s for years but could never find a good, working flash complete with all its bits and the original box. So far it’s a perfect pairing. The date code on the flash head is Y0701 (7/84). I bought the lens in 1978, when I purchased my first F-1.

Thanks for stopping by, Chris
