Vintage Camera Strap
Posted in Posters on 04/05/2006 10:44 am by admin

I’ve got a vintage SLR, is it worth keeping?
When my mother was in her early 20′s she used to do photography. I just found her old SLR camera. It’s a Canon AV-1 and it has a strap and a case. The camera is in really good condition.
Could anyone tell me what year approximately that this camera is from?
Would it by any chance be worth any money?
As I also have an interest in photography, is this camera good enough to spend the time on it and use it myself?
Can I buy lenses for it?
It doesn’t have a manual, can I get one from somewhere?
-thanks
It’s from 1979. It uses the now defunct FD mount. You can buy lenses for it, but they will be second hand.
It probably won’t be worth a lot of money, due to the lens mount. I don’t they made adapters for FD-EF (Or vica versa). I’m guessing maybe 100$ is you are incredibly lucky.
The camera is only as good as you. Any SLR is worth keeping, provided you know what you’re doing.
As for a manual, see my source link
