6 Canon EOS 650 + Canon EF 35-70mm f/3.5-4.5 – The Camera That Started the EOS System A beautiful opportunity to own a piece of Canon history. Introduced in 1987 to celebrate Canon’s 50th anniversary, the Canon EOS 650 was the very first camera in Canon’s famous EOS (Electro-Optical System) series. It also introduced the Canon EF lens mount, which later became one of the most successful lens systems in photography. For a film photographer or Canon collector, the EOS 650 is much more than just another 35mm SLR. It is the camera that started the EOS story. The camera comes with the Canon EF 35-70mm f/3.5-4.5 autofocus zoom lens. It is a compact and lightweight lens that makes this combination very practical for everyday film photography. The 35mm setting is useful for landscapes, travel, street photography and everyday scenes, while the 70mm setting works very nicely for portraits and details. The camera and lens are in excellent overall condition, both cosmetically and mechanically. There are only some very minor external imperfections from age and previous use. Please carefully review the high-definition close-up photographs. The photos were taken with a professional camera and professional macro lens, specifically so that even very small imperfections can be seen clearly. The camera looks excellent in person. The lens is in beautiful optical condition with no haze or fungus. The optics are clean and clear, and the zoom operates smoothly as it should. The viewfinder is large, bright and crystal clear, making the camera very pleasant to use. The camera has been fully tested and everything works perfectly. Autofocus, AF buttons and controls, film loading, film advance, shutter operation, shutter speeds, film rewinding and all other functions have been checked and are working exactly as they should. The lens also communicates correctly with the camera and operates perfectly. The EOS 650 uses one 2CR5 battery, which is widely available and easy to find. A good-quality battery can typically provide approximately 30–50 rolls of film depending on usage, so one battery can give you plenty of enjoyable shooting before it needs to be replaced. If you are looking for a reliable, easy-to-use autofocus 35mm film camera with genuine historical importance, the EOS 650 is a fantastic choice. It offers the pleasure and character of shooting film while giving you the convenience of autofocus and a versatile zoom lens. For collectors, this is especially interesting because the EOS 650 was the very first EOS camera ever produced by Canon.
