I was digging through the attic and I came across some stuff my dad gave me. It's a 1980 Canon AE1 (Sorry for the crappy pics, they're all I've got.)


It has a couple extra lenses, but I couldn't tell you anything about them.


Manual film advance which I don't mind, but it doesn't work and needs to be repaired. Hopefully there's a camera shop in the area that can repair stuff like this. It does have a max shutter speed of 1000FPS, so it might be enough to do some slow speed action shots.

Lastly, he gave me a Canon AutoBellows system for extreme close up shots. I have NO idea how to use it, but I'll do some reading.


I feel like I'm overwhelming myself, having a couple short blocks to put together on the side, hitting golf ***** every day, teaching myself to play the guitar and piano, plinking with my .223, and now this, but it's nice to stay busy and not spend a ton of money. Thanks for checking it out and if anyone's got any advice, I'm all ears!

Nobody? I'll try in some of the other sections. Thanks!

Nice find, but the price to get it repaired will not be worth it.

The bellows attachment is pretty cool, I haven't seen something like that for a long time.

It depends on what "worth it" is. The camera was free to me, so I'll get an estimate. I'll get it repaired eventually no matter what the cost, since it was a gift from my dad.
