A classic Canon accessory.Here is a very nice early version of this important accessory from Canon for the original Canon F-1.
Canon Booster T Finder for the Canon F-1 – Mint in Box w/ Leather Case, Connecting Cord, New Battery, Prism Cover – Fully Tested – 1 Owner
The Booster T Finder, interchangeable with the F-1 pentagonal prism section reads precise exposures with its electronic timer under extremely dim lighting conditions. It is effective for photomicrography, macro- photography, and when shooting indoors or night scenes where timed exposures are necessary.
It will complete as pictured. The leather case is in near-perfect condition as is the finder itself. The Canon connecting cord 6V 2B is also in excellent condition and is the correct cord for the finder. The finder is powered by an easy-to-find A544 6V alkaline battery which I’ve included.
This finder was a key part of my Canon F-1 collection that I’m now downsizing.
The case is in exceptionally nice condition.Mint condition.The battery test indicates all is up and running.The Booster T Finder replaces the eye-level pentaprism finder on the Canon F-1.Shown here with the standard eye-level finder removed from the original F-1.
If you’re interested in adding this interesting F-1 accessory to your own Canon collection then pop on over to my online shop at http://www.ccstudio2380.com where I’m having a nice sale on everything at 10% off for a limited time. Thanks for stopping by, Chris

If you were looking for a way to eat through a roll of 35mm film back in 1995 Canon had the answer. Capable of continuous shooting at 10 fps, it was billed as the fastest AF SLR at the time.
We take high-speed shooting for granted today with modern mirrorless digital cameras but 27 years ago it wasn’t easy to get quality images that were in focus and at this kind of speed. I’ve never tested it at that speed as I’m content with single frame shooting and with the cost of film and processing I won’t be eating film with it any time soon.
Thanks for stopping by! Do you have a film eater at home that you don’t use? – Chris

I’ve decided it’s time to part with one of my favorite 35mm rangefinders – my Canon Model 7. It took quite a while to find this gem but it’s time to move on and let another collector enjoy it. Maybe someone with more free time will take it out for a photo walk. It’s 100% fully working even down to the meter.
The camera is nearly flawless with just the slightest signs of previous use.It comes with the original instruction booklet in Japanese and I’ve added an English version too. The lens catalog and the products guide are both printed in Japanese and contain some great bits of info and have never seen before (by me) lens and accessories.
It’s available now in my online camera shop (hosted by Etsy) at http://www.ccstudio2380.com – thanks for stopping by! – Chris
