Introduced in the mid-1960s, the Canon FX is a fully mechanical SLR known for its robust construction and straightforward manual operation. As it uses a selenium meter, no battery is required for its metering system (if functional). The camera offers a classic manual shooting experience and pairs well with Canon FL and compatible FD lenses.
The Canon FX uses standard 35mm (135) film, producing 24 × 36 mm negatives.
