How to Select & Use Canon Slr Cameras

Rating:
Summary: handy reference if you can find it
Review: This is a pretty good reference for the older FD-series cameras. Includes details on T90, T80, T70, T50, New F-1 (no old F-1 refs), AE-1 Program, AE-1, A-1, Canon-brand FD lenses, Speedlite flashes of the time (199A, 188A, 166A, 533G, 577G, & ML-1), and the various system and lense accessories available from Canon. It also includes a lot of basic photography chapters found in any good photography book, along with good explanations of mechanical and electronic operation. Even though most of the Canon-specific info can be found online throughout several good websites, I am very glad I have this reference since it appears to be complete and has everything in one place. Especially useful for figuring out what Canon-branded lenses and accessories are available for my old FD cameras (through used sales), and what their specs are for easy comparison.
