Compatibility Issues among system Accessories between Canon EOS-1 & EOS-1N

File size: 63K HTML Loading...

In most cases, accessories in a particular system camera will provide backward compatibilities with the many Canon EOS camera models. Here are some that I can list down which are specific to pre & post Canon EOS-1N era. I have not been following with the latest inclusion of others because now this site is only confined to EOS-1N only. If you think the latest should also be included in this chart, you brief me or just download a copy, patch the missing links and mail it back to me for uploading. Thanks.
