The A-1 was the top of the A-series cameras. (The AE-1 was the first in this series.) It was an advanced electronic camera with fully digital controls.
In addition to the shutter-priority AE and aperture-priority AE modes, it featured the first fully automatic program AE mode, preset aperture-priority AE, and Speedlite AE mode.
The information in the viewfinder was also easy to read with a 7 segment red LED readout. The operating settings were displayed at the same time which made it very convenient.
In addition to the Power Winder A, which was developed at the same time as the AE-1, the A-1 also included the compact Motor Drive MA, which achieved a maximum shooting speed of 5 fps. This Motor Drive had a convenient shutter release button with a vertical grip. There was also the Speedlite 199A with bounce flash capability. The body of the A-1 had a beautiful black finish.
