Canon EOS 1 V HS
The Canon EOS-1V is a 35mm autofocus film SLR introduced in 2000 as the flagship of Canon's EOS film system, using the EF lens mount. The HS designation refers to the Power Drive Booster PB-E2 grip, which raises the maximum frame rate. It was positioned as a professional body for press, sports, and reportage work.
Sales data for the EOS-1V HS is thin, with a single 2026 UK auction hammer result of £400 on record, so this figure should be read as indicative rather than a settled market price. As of 2026, demand for late-era professional film bodies has been firm, but values are highly condition-sensitive and depend on shutter count, the state of the rear LCDs, and whether the PB-E2 booster is included and functional. Buyers researching what an EOS-1V HS is worth at saleroom level should treat the £400 figure as a starting reference rather than a median.

Frequently asked questions
What is a Canon EOS-1V HS worth today?
Auction evidence is limited, but a UK hammer price of £400 was recorded in March 2026; expect clean, fully working examples with the PB-E2 booster to sell in that region.
How much does a Canon EOS-1V HS sell for at UK auction?
The most recent hammer result on file is £400, achieved in 2026; with only one data point, the wider price range is not yet well established.
What is the difference between the EOS-1V and the EOS-1V HS?
The HS version is the same body supplied with the PB-E2 Power Drive Booster grip, which increases the maximum frame rate; without the booster, the camera is simply an EOS-1V.
Is the Canon EOS-1V HS still serviceable?
Canon officially ended repair support for the EOS-1V in 2025, so future servicing depends on independent specialists and donor bodies for parts.
