Canon T70 35mm SLR Camera - Rare U.S. Navy Issue w/ Canon Command Back 70 and Remote Switch 60 - Later 1985 Version - Fully Tested

$389.95

I have a later-model Canon T70 35mm SLR available for purchase.
It's a rare U.S. Navy-issue camera set with a Canon Command Back 70 and a Canon Remote Switch 60 T3. I'll also include another back for the camera as pictured. The back has a fresh battery installed. 99% of these backs have some LCD bleed, which is common and doesn't affect their use. The Command Back is one of Canon's most sophisticated backs as it can control interval-timed photography.
It's in excellent condition overall, and it's super clean.
This camera was made by Canon for use in the United States Navy.

This camera is dated May 1985 (Date Code Z513).
Serial Number 1715585
The instruction book is complete and in excellent condition. It's the correct book for this camera.
The full color brochure is another hard-to-find item. It's got 40 full-color pages and is a detailed instruction book in its own. A Canon Product Guide is also included.

It's one of my favorite cameras, but it's time to pass it along to another collector. It's part of a large collection of Canon U.S. Navy-issue cameras and lenses I have.
It's been on display, but I keep my cameras exercised (used and checked).
The top LCD is clear and clean, with no bleed. All modes and functions work.
All levers, dials, knobs, and switches work properly.
The light meter works, and its readings match an external light meter.
The viewfinder is sharp and clear.
*Please check out my detailed photos, which show the camera's exact condition.
I'll include 2 AA batteries.
This Canon T70 will accept any Canon FD lens made from 1971 to 1995.

Included: Everything pictured.
Strap, two backs, body cap, eyecup, remote switch, books, and batteries.

Smoke-free and pet-free home.
The display stand is not included.
Please check out my other cameras and gear listed in my shop.

I mail daily.
It will be sent fully insured and tracked.
Questions? I'm happy to answer. Additional pictures upon request.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does your shop offer combined shipping?

Yes, just let us know and we'll work something out. No need to pay for shipping more than once.

Does your shop accept returns?

Yes, but with some exceptions. No returns on custom-made items. Part two - we will gladly accept a return within 14 days as long as it is returned to us in the same condition as when we sent it to you. Specifically, if an item is new and unused and in its original box and packaging it must be returned in an unused and unopened condition. Vintage and classic cameras, lenses, and certain pieces of vintage photogear carry no warranties or guarantees. By their very nature, older cameras are just that, old, and their electronics, levers, knobs, buttons, and dials can fail at any time. Let us know if you are returning something, maybe we can reach an agreement short of a full return. Part three - you will always pay for return shipping. Thanks

Will my purchase arrive well packaged?

Always! Carol and I take great care (and pride) in packaging your purchase. We are mindful of being "green" but often times green doesn't protect your package properly. We have been shipping items safely since 2003. We must say, however, that we are not responsible for mishandling by the carrier(s) or loss of an item. Most items and especially valuable items will always have insurance added.

How can I contact your shop?

We are on Etsy almost every day and the best way to get our attention is by starting an Etsy convo. We'll answer you quickly. We're generally in the shop until 11 PM EST.

Does your shop ever do custom orders?

Yes, we do. Just let us know what you want or are looking for and we'll see if we can make it happen.

Does your shop accept a best offer?

We think we have everything priced properly but we are here to make a sale and keep our customers happy. Let us know if you want to make an offer on something. I'm sure we will find a way to reach an accord.
