  This camera takes the equivalent of a PX28 battery.  Don t forget to put one in your cart!

  The A-1 accepts any lens with the Canon FD breech-lock mount (introduced in 1971) or Canon New FD pseudo-bayonet mount (sometimes called the FDn mount, introduced 1979). It can also use most earlier FL lenses and some even older R (or Canomatic) series lenses, albeit with reduced functionality. This camera is not compatible with Canon s EF bayonet mount autofocus lenses (introduced in 1987). During the late 1970s and 1980s, there were approximately 55 Canon FD lenses available for purchase.
