Rent NowThe Canon FTb QL is a fully mechanical 35mm SLR camera built around Canon’s FD lens mount system, offered here as a body-only listing. It features a through-the-lens stop-down metering system using a center-weighted average pattern, requiring a battery to operate the light meter while the mechanical shutter remains functional without power. The QL designation refers to Canon’s Quick Loading film advance mechanism, which simplifies the film loading process compared to conventional threading systems of the era. A top shutter speed of 1/1000 second and a standard sync speed for flash use are supported, and the robust all-metal construction reflects the professional-oriented build standards of its production period. Compatible with the full range of Canon FD and FDn mount lenses, providing access to a broad selection of prime and zoom optics from Canon and third-party manufacturers.
