The System
Beginning with accessories which are integral
parts of the A-1 system, Canon offers the
Speedlite 199A and the Motor Drive MA.
Either the specified Canon Speedlite 199A,
177A, 155A or 133A can be mounted on
the A-1 for AE flash photography with auto­
matic setting of shutter speed and aperture.
With the Motor Drive MA, continuous
shooting at up to five frames per second is
possible, and the A-1 also accepts the Power
Winder A. Like the AE-1, the A-1 can also
use the Data Back A, a date imprinting
mechanism that will couple to both power
winder and Speedlite.
Plus, you have your choice of accessories
from Canon’s extensive SLR system. From
its famous, high resolution ED lenses to its
complete line of systemized accessories for
close-ups,
photomacrography and photo­
micrography, Canon offers high-quality
equipment for all photographic fields.
