Comments[edit]
Top model of Canon after 1978.
Repair instructions:
An extremely popular, solid, and sought-after camera. A large number were sold originally and availability is good. Can use Nizo UWL wide angle adaptor (67mm.) Desirable and rare accessories include chest-pod, external battery box, and leather carrying bag.
Reviews[edit]
In terms of heft and feel, the 1014XLS has many fans. Some prefer it to the Nizo 6080, in terms of reliability and workmanship. Repair is scarcer than for the Nizos, but available. Pin sharp lens, extra large viewfinder image, like looking out of a living room window. Highly sought after, but fairly noisy. Fantastic footage, a cut above most other cameras and readily apparent.
