The Canon FX (NM22), paired with the Canon FL 50mm f/1.8 (VG-TH-SEP26-22), has been inspected, cleaned, and tested by CPB Darkroom and is in good working condition. The camera's fully mechanical shutter fires correctly across its shutter-speed range, while the film transport and mechanical controls operate as intended.

TThe built-in light meter does not work. The camera itself is fully mechanical and can be used without relying on the built-in meter. For accurate exposure readings, we recommend using a handheld light meter or a reliable light-metering app.

The included Canon FL 50mm f/1.8 is in good working condition and has been cleaned and repaired by CPB Darkroom. The manual focus ring operates correctly, while the aperture ring and aperture mechanism function as intended.

The lens optics are free from fungus, although visible scratches are present on the optical elements. These marks are consistent with the lens's age and previous use and may result in some reduction in contrast, increased flare, or changes in overall image rendering under certain lighting conditions. These optical imperfections have been taken into account in the bundle's Good condition grade.

Cosmetically, the Canon FX body shows normal signs of wear consistent with its age and use. The Canon FL 50mm f/1.8 lens body is in excellent cosmetic condition, showing only minor signs of wear and remaining well preserved for its age. The images shown depict the exact camera and lens you will receive.

Introduced in the mid-1960s, the Canon FX represents an early generation of Canon's manual-focus 35mm SLR system. Its fully mechanical shutter and straightforward manual controls provide a traditional hands-on shooting experience, making it particularly suitable for photographers interested in learning or working with manual exposure and mechanical film cameras.

Paired with the Canon FL 50mm f/1.8, this kit provides a classic standard-lens setup. The 50mm focal length offers a natural perspective suitable for street photography, portraits, travel, documentary work, and everyday photography. Its relatively bright f/1.8 maximum aperture provides additional flexibility in lower-light situations while allowing for shallow depth of field and subject separation.

The camera and lens both use the Canon FL mount, making this a directly compatible combination without the need for an adapter.

This camera uses standard 35mm (135) film, producing images in the 24 × 36 mm format.

Camera and lens kits sold by CPB Darkroom are inspected for shutter operation, film transport reliability, mechanical functionality, optical condition, focusing operation, aperture responsiveness, and mount integrity. Any untested functions, cosmetic imperfections, or optical limitations are clearly described and reflected in the condition grade.
