Canon TL QL w/ 50mm F/1.8 Lens
Sorry, currently out of stock
A simplified and cheaper version of the FT QL, this camera was for the overseas mass market. The maximum shutter speed was only 1/500 sec. The camera was without a self-timer and QL feature, but it retained stop-down TTL metering. Although most TL cameras did not have QL, some cameras did as shown in the photo. This camera has been tested and in working condition.
