Europe1 listingno tested Buy It Now

Prices from outside the UK include about 20% import VAT. Over £135 the courier may add a handling fee, and customs duty can apply. Work out the full cost with the import cost calculator.

A * after the working status means it comes from the seller's description, not the title.

Before you buy a used AE-1

  1. No battery, no shutter: the AE-1 is electronic, so test it with a fresh 6V 4LR44.
  2. Listen for "Canon squeal" at slow speeds: a squeaking mirror means it needs a service soon.
  3. Check the meter needle and the light seals; budget £20 for new seals if they're sticky.
  4. Fire every shutter speed with the back open: 1 second should sound clearly longer than 1/2, and the fast speeds should look different.
  5. Pay through eBay. eBay's Money Back Guarantee covers a camera that doesn't work as described, but only if you pay through eBay. Our used film camera checklist has the tests to do the day it arrives.

Battery: 4LR44 / PX28 (6V). The camera won't work without it. Battery finder →

Questions buyers ask

How much is a used AE-1 worth?

On eBay UK today a tested / working, with lens Canon AE-1 typically costs £160 delivered, with most between £113 and £173. A tested body on its own is about £96. These are asking prices, so many sell for a little less, especially with Best Offer.

Is it cheaper to buy a AE-1 from Japan?

38 of the 126 Canon AE-1 listings on eBay UK right now are posted from Japan. The cheapest tested one from Japan is £74 including about 20% import VAT, against £55 for the cheapest tested one from a UK seller. Japanese dealers grade cosmetic condition carefully ("Near Mint", "Exc+5"), but you pay import VAT and sometimes a courier fee, and returns take longer. All the prices on this page already include the VAT estimate.

What battery does the AE-1 take?

4LR44 / PX28 (6V).

Is a tested AE-1 worth paying more for?

Right now tested examples are listed at about £13 (9%) more than ones where the seller doesn't say. A film-tested camera is the safest buy: an untested one can need a service costing £60 to £150.

What should I check before buying a used AE-1?

No battery, no shutter: the AE-1 is electronic, so test it with a fresh 6V 4LR44. Listen for "Canon squeal" at slow speeds: a squeaking mirror means it needs a service soon.

Are these sold prices?

No, they're asking prices from live eBay listings, refreshed daily. We record the daily typical price, so the history chart shows how asking prices move.
