Canon's early EOS film SLR — the 600 with 3-zone evaluative metering for the EF system.
The Canon EOS 600 (630 in some markets) launched in 1989 as an early consumer EOS film SLR with 3-zone evaluative metering — an improvement over the simpler metering in the original EOS 650. Part of the early EOS evolution.
3-zone evaluative metering was advanced for consumer cameras. 7-point BASIS AF system. Multiple exposure modes. Built-in motor drive. The EOS 600 represented the refinement of the original EOS concept.
Canon EF mount — same as modern Canon DSLRs (not EF-S). 3-zone metering. 7-point AF. Built-in motor drive. 35mm film. One of the early cameras that established the EOS operational philosophy.
Available used very cheaply. The EF mount means same lenses as modern Canon cameras — the key attraction. Early EOS technology is basic by current standards. For film photographers wanting to use Canon EF lenses on a film body.
