This listing is for a Canon EOS-3 camera body is Excellent condition.


It is in near mint condition with minimum signs of use.


It has spent most of it's life tucked away in it's camera bag not being used.


The battery was removed whenever the camera wasn't being used.

I recently installed a brand new battery to check things out and it works like a champ.


It includes:


The camera body

New battery

Canon manual

Canon eyecup

Body cap

Canon camera strap

Nice Canon camera case


This is a professional film camera. Original cost, if I remember correctly was around $1400-$1500.


I had several lenses for it but a friend bought those since they fit on his DSLR. I couldn't convince him to switch to film, so I'm listing the camera body on eBay for some lucky buyer.


If you're a current film shooter, you might know that film can be drum scanned to produce a huge image file that can be printed much larger than all but the most expensive digital cameras. Not even current full frame DSLRs can produce a digital file as large as a drum scanned transparency film, such as Fuji Velvia.


If you are an "artist" and looking to create very large photographs, then transparency film is for you.


Mount this camera on a sturdy tripod and use a Canon prime lens and you will be astounded with the results. I regularly print up to 30" x 40" with my drummed scanned images.


I also shoot 4x5 and 8x10 film. I'm just not using this camera enough and the wife says it has to go.
