It is indeed a sad state to see the FD mount New Canon F-1 has to retired from service this way; it cannot even enjoy potential benefit to utilize the more advance electronic EF mount as with the EOS users back in 1986. As a detaching system users, you may use this site for common support and sharing mutual knowledge or experiences among yourself. Ihope this convenience provided can be of useful to all of you who still owned this great piece of manual focus SLR. You may use this message board as a guestbook for the camera. Enjoy.

Can anyone tell me the differences between the F-1n and the F-1N or point a site to me that lists the differences between the two. I would appreciate that. Thanks

dear Brad,

We would all love a digital back for our F1 or any FD mounted camera. Unfortunately that is still a dream that is unlikely to be answered any time soon.

The only digital camera back that works on a conventional film camera is that for Leica R8 / R9.

I am writing from India. My brother's CANON NEW F-1 shutter had stopped functioning properly three years ago. On the recommendation of "the leading photography store" in town (Bangalore) it was entrusted with a camera repair shop to set the shutter right. By the time I got the camera back from them it was in a worse condition -- it had only one speed at any shutter-speed setting !!!!
After searching for almost three years I have finally found a camera repairer four weeks ago who has made the shutter work at correct speed, MECHANICALLY only, from 1/60 to 1/2000 only. He has not been able to rectify the electronics side of the shutter.
Can anyone, please, tell me how to make the shutter work mechanically and electronically at all settings ( B to 1/2000) so that I can guide the camera repairer accordingly. Please tell me where I can get spares in case you recommend any. I would very much appreciate if someone will take genuine interest in my case and help me. Thank You.
