Just curious, since the New F-1 does not provide TTL flash, is that possible to use a Olympus T45 flash onto a Canon New- F-1 ? I was given a used unit and this huge mounted flash has a powerful flash output and I am not sure how to get around with the camera.

Hi Matthew, as NF-1 does not support TTL flash features, it is not necessary to buy dedicated flash unit for it. I think any common flash unit that supports manual and auto-flash function will be ok - of course, you must set the aperture and shutter speed manually.

I have a brand new in the box F-1N that I would sell for $1500. But if you are planning to use any F-1N mint example you'd be better off getting a really nice one instead for much less, like at ebay. In fact, like 1/3 the price I quoted my my brand new example. Big difference. The matte finish on these bodies are prone to wear quickly. Thanks, Lindy

I am living in Rio Parana, Paraguay. I was given a few old FL lenses which I thought of using them with my dad's New F-1 (based on the site's pictures). I was told these series of Canon lenses cannot be fully functional with the New F-1. Is that true ? Why wouldn't Canon lenses be used on a Canon cameras ? If I am wrong, what limitations do this combination post ? Thank for any feebacks, please use the board to response. p.s. this is a fatastic website on cameras, much better than many other sites.

Kind of confusing ? Perhaps. The Canon F-1n (1976) was a update from the original Canonn F-1 (see: http://www.mir.com.my/rb/photography/hardwares/classics/canonf1/html/f1n.htm). The Canon New F-1 was introduced in 1981 as the second generation professional SLR with the "F-1" designation). Although both share the same model name but most system accessories are NOT compatible with one another (EXCEPT in the case of FD(n) lenses - both systems can be used - only differed by the process of lense mounting/romoval). Both series are classic !
