Canon FTb-N

Chris and Carol Leave a comment

My Canon FTb-N from 1974. It was an update to the original FTb, which was released in March 1971 – the same date as the Canon F-1. The FTb-N was released in July 1973. OK, that’s a lot of dates, how about some pics?

A big-bodied camera and lens. The ‘QL’ designation indicates it is ‘Quick-Loading’.
A close cousin of the Canon F-1.
The Canon FD 50mm f/1.8 lens was released in April 1972. It’s affectionately called a chrome nose.
Stylish and simple design.
Actually, this is a depiction of the original FTb from March 1971, before the updates made on the FTb-N.
The Canon FTb-N is a worthy addition to your list of Canon must-haves.

Thanks for stopping by, Chris
