What it is

{"overview":"The Canon EF is a 35mm film SLR introduced in 1973, using the Canon FD lens mount. The wide spread in 2026 reflects how condition-sensitive this model is: tidy, fully working bodies sell for substantially more than the cosmetically tired examples that make up most of the market, and an outlier clean example can push what the camera is worth well above typical levels.","buying_guide":"Because the EF uses an electronically-timed shutter at longer speeds and a mechanical shutter at faster speeds, test both ranges before buying and confirm the meter responds to light changes. Inspect the battery compartment for corrosion, check the film advance and self-timer, and look for fungus or haze in any bundled FD-mount lens.

Questions

Is the Canon EF a good buy for the price?

If you already use Canon FD lenses and want shutter-priority auto-exposure, the EF offers strong value at typical hammer prices, but budget for a CLA on any body where the meter behaviour is unknown.
