Background

The Canon EOS 66, released in the mid-1990s, was an entry-level 35mm autofocus SLR designed for amateur photographers. Compact, lightweight, and equipped with the Canon EF mount, it allowed access to Canon’s entire lineup of EF lenses, from consumer zooms to professional L-series optics. Offering fully automatic operation with the flexibility of manual modes, it was a practical and affordable way into the EOS system.

Lens Compatibility & Format

The EOS 66 uses the Canon EF mount, making it compatible with all EF lenses produced since 1987. It accepts standard 35mm film (color or black & white, 24 or 36 exposures). Film loading, advance, and rewind are motorized for ease of use.

Usage Notes

This is a fully automatic camera with built-in exposure modes, auto film transport, and reliable TTL metering. It’s perfect for beginners who want simplicity, but it also offers manual controls for more experienced photographers. Requires a 2CR5 lithium battery to operate.
