I have the A1 and was told at the "photo swap" to donate it, too good to throw away, worth nothing and maybe somebody could learn with it.
It's back in the dresser drawer.

I had an A1 for years... Great camera; also had the databack and powerwinder for it. Sold it to raise money for the move to the US, back in 1990.

Great camera. Put many a roll thru it for work and play. Still shoot with it once in a rare while. Built like a tank. Wont sell it for what its worth...its like selling the ol' workhorse to the glue factory 'cause ya got a new tractor.
Keeping mine for old times sake.

Im going to retire it, but it does need cleaning. The last time i had it out on our alaska cruise the ahots werent as clear as they should be. I could see spots in pics.
Spots in pics indicates dirt on your lenses or fungus growth on the elements- not in the camera. Only Digital cameras with sensors can have dust settle on the sensor.
