Canon's F-1 (1971) was their first real attempt to make a professional system SLR that rivaled Nikon's F and F2. They largely succeeded, and the F-1 remains one of the best high-end cameras from the early 1970s to use today.

Here, Connor shows us all the buttons and features of the F-1 as well as some basic information on how to use the camera.
