View warranty terms and conditionsThe Canon AE-1 SLR - Black/Gray + Canon FD 50mm f/1.8 f/1.8 is the full-frame mirrorless that changed the rules of the game in 2018: the first body in its category that did not force the photographer to choose between video, burst rate and battery life. Eight years on, it is still the camera we most recommend to anyone wanting to step up to full-frame without going into debt.

It has a sober, almost industrial character. The electronic viewfinder is precise without being theatrical, the eye-detection AF nails the focus even in dim interiors, and the NP-FZ100 battery handles long shoots without anxiety. It is not the fastest camera in the catalogue, but it is the most reliable — and that is what ends up mattering when you work.
This unit has very few shots on the counter, original battery at 92% measured capacity, and comes from a Barcelona wedding photographer who used it as a secondary body for two seasons. We have recently inspected it: marcas mínimas en la base de la empuñadura, sensor limpio, todos los puntos del checklist en verde.
We recommend it for portrait, travel, street and indoor event photography. If you are coming from APS-C and looking for a first full-frame that will last for years without asking anything strange, this is probably the most sensible decision you can make at this price.
What condition is the camera in?
Every camera that leaves Camera Market goes through a 28-point inspection protocol: shutter condition, autofocus accuracy, sensor integrity, seal tightness, electronic viewfinder calibration, original battery health, and eight further tests on connectivity and firmware.
The specific cosmetic condition (marks, scratches, signs of use) is documented in the actual photographs and in the technical table on the product page. We do not use catalogue images.
What is included in the purchase?
You receive the Canon AE-1 SLR - Black/Gray + Canon FD 50mm f/1.8 f/1.8 body with its original NP-FZ100 battery, BC-QZ1 charger, CANON shoulder strap, original box and printed manual. The 28-point inspection and the 6-month warranty are included in the price.
SD card not included. If you need additional accessories, browse our accessory selection.
What warranty does it have?
All cameras include 6 months of free warranty covering functional defects and technical failures.
You can extend the coverage from the warranty section on this same page:
- 12 months for €39,00 · single payment
- 24 months for €69,60 · single payment · recommended
We also offer 14-day returns with no questions asked. If you are not satisfied, full refund.
How long does shipping take?
Standard shipping to the EU in 4–5 business days with tracking number. For mainland Spain, express 24–48 h option available at checkout.
Technical packaging with custom-cut foam and tamper-evident seals. Transit insurance included.
Is it suitable for beginners?
Yes, without reservation. It has full automatic modes and eye-detection autofocus that works practically by itself, so you can start taking professional photos from day one.
When you grow, the manual controls and customisation curve are exactly what you would expect from a professional body. It is a camera you can learn with for years.
Why buy refurbished?
For three honest reasons: price (between 20 and 40% below new on high-end models), sustainability (keeping a body in circulation avoids manufacturing a new one and all its waste), and transparency: every unit has its own serial number, visible shutter count and inspection date.
Market depreciation does not affect optical or electronic performance. A Canon AE-1 SLR - Black/Gray + Canon FD 50mm f/1.8 f/1.8 with 12,000 shots takes exactly the same photos as one with 0.
