If you enjoy vintage SLRs, get it. It's a fun camera that's easy to use!
6 of 6 found this helpful I've always been a Nikon girl, but when a friend recommended that I try the AE-1, I couldn't resist. I purchased one on eBay and tried it out (and quickly decided to buy another AE-1 and also a TX). It feels great in my hands. What is it comparable to? Hmmm, my Nikon EM, feels about the same as that, as far as the weight, appearance, and ease of use go. Let's see the pros--very easy to use. If you've ever used a manual camera, you can use this. Like I said, it is on a bit heavier side, but it has that substantial feel, not the flimsy plastic stuff. The lens changes out effortlessly. All the controls--apertures, shutter speed, zoom, focus--everything is pretty simple. Film winds easily. There's one or two cons I have to mention though. The lid for the battery compartment is flimsy. I actually cracked it a little bit while opening it and had to super glue it back. Also, when you close it once you put in the battery, it feels almost like the lid won't click all the way in because the battery is too big, or something like that even thought it's not true. I hate forcing it because I don't want to crack it again. I haven't played with all the features yet, but as far as I know, this camera is awesome. It's a fun piece to add to anyone's collection of vintage SLR's.
