1960s Canon Pellix 35mm SLR Camera No.113691 With 50mm 1:1.4 Lens And Ever Ready Case 

This is a very nice 1960s Canon Pellix 35mm SLR Camera No.113691 With 50mm 1:1.4 Lens And Ever Ready Case.

A Working Manual Focus camera, launched by Canon Camera Company Inc, in 1965. It utilises a stationary semitransparent pellicle reflex mirror, rather than a moving SLR mirror when TTL metering.
Although highly collectible, the mirror eventually proved to be a design fault as they degraded with time.

The camera available here is in very good cosmetic and working condition. The Black Ever Ready Leather case is in fair used condition with scuffs and scratches commensurate with age and use.
