Canon AE-1 Film Camera

I bought this camera because I am currently in photography school. I already had a good digital camera and really did not need to purchase another one, however, the lessons called for experience using manual focus. My digital camera didn't really have all of the components for manual focusing. So, I purchased the film camera from Ebay. I love it, it takes great pictures and most of all I can follow my lessons and understand the instructions in regards to aperture, exposure and lens size. The AE-1 was very easy to use and although, it was a little ancient to me, it works great and I quickly fell in love with it!
