Marketed September 1977 Original Price 36,000 yen, 1,500 yen (case) Canon 110 ED review, Perfection in Miniature! May 22, 2018 By Kurt Munger Posted in Blog , Film Cameras Tagged with 110 camera The Canon 110 ED was one of the very best 110 cameras of the day. It had the fastest lens for a while (F/2), until Michael Landon of little house on the prairie started hawking the Kodak Ektramax a couple of years later with a F/1.9 design. The camera outfit you see above was expensive, and cost about as much as a good 35mm camera, but it did have some advanced features that were missing on most of the 110’s, like a tripod socket, a shutter cable release, flash hotshoe, rangefinder focusing, manual aperture adjustments, and an excellent five element lens! We’re going to take a mid 1970s trip down memory lane for this review, so head to the closet or basement and dust off your old 110; it’s probably under your bell bottoms and peace sign jewelry. But before your sentimental photo outing, make sure you grab yourself a few ‘cartridges’ of 110 film, they’re still available fresh from B&H , Amazon , eBay . You can get B&W, reversed rolled ‘red scale,’ regular color print, and even E-6 slide film! With the introduction out of the way, let’s check out the Canon 110 ED specs. Name; Canon 110 ED. Manufactured by; Canon Inc, Tokyo, Japan. Date of manufacture; ca1975. Price; prices from period magazine ads in 1976; $125 at discount mail order stores, so probably a bit more at your local camera shop. Adjusted for inflation, today’s price would be around $538. Current eBay prices range anywhere from $25 to $60 depending on condition and if it comes with the original box etc. I paid about $45 total for the pristine outfit above. Build material; the body appears to be mostly metal, and black parts are plastic, but it has an overall quality fit and finish. Box contents; instruction manual in multiple languages, warranty card, servicing card, presentation box, flash, flash extender, battery and wrist strap. Weight; camera with battery, 10.6oz (300g). Dimensions; 5.5″ (142mm) wide, 1.2″ (29mm) tall, and 2.3″ (56mm) deep. Focal length; 26mm, similar to 52mm in 135 format. Aperture; F/2-F/16 manually set. ISO; 80. Focusing distance; 2 feet (0.6m) to infinity. Viewfinder; tunnel like, but fairly bright with parallax correction lines, red over-exposure warning lamp, and yellow LED camera shake warning. Original print size; Kodak made 3½ x 4½ prints; 89mm x 114mm. Approximate resolution; good film will make very sharp 4×6″ prints, and good 5×7.” See sample images farther down the page. Lens; all glass 26mm F/2; multi-coated 5 element in 4 group design. Shutter and speed; between the lens 2 bladed, diamond shaped aperture. Manual states up to (or longer than) 8 seconds at F/2, with a maximum of 1/500 at F/16. Camera reverts to 1/30s if anything is inserted into the hotshoe. Apertures; set by the blue colored slider. The ‘window’ and flash symbol on the very left side of the window is F/2, the odd shaped ‘cloud’ setting is F/4, , the ‘sun’ symbol is F/8, and the dot on the extreme right is F/16. Features; date imprinting. Choice of four aperture settings. Automatic electronic shutter. Rangefinder focusing from 2 feet (0.6m) to infinity. Hotshoe, tripod socket, and a cable release socket next to the shutter button, see image below. Film; all ‘110’ cartridges. Flash; External Canolite ED flash recharges in about 5 seconds, guide number of 14m at ASO 100. About 180 flashes per battery. Orange light on back of flash means the flash is ready. This outfit comes with a flash and extender to raise the flash above the camera. Power; Uses small, but odd-ball PX28 6v battery not usually available at your local stores, so try here, B&H , Amazon , eBay . Accessories for this model; a soft case, ‘deluxe’ soft case, shutter cable release, ’30’ and ’50,’ a self timer and a close-up lens. Crippling features and omissions; no battery, no working camera. Later, the updated Canon 110 ED 20 had a mechanical shutter speed of 1/125 if the battery was not inserted. Good features; real rangefinder focusing and four aperture settings to choose from; small, will fit in a shirt pocket. Other models; the newer Canon 110 ED 20 had several different features, such as a fixed mechanical shutter speed with no battery, a higher shutter speed of 1/1000, and will accomodate ASA 400 film. Product shots with descriptions. Click pictures for larger versions. A nice sample with all the paperwork in place. Under the camera are spaces for a battery, and flash extender. Behind the camera resting spot is a slot for the wrist strap, and the main flash unit is on the right side. Instructions include owners manual, Canolite ED flash manual, warranty and service cards etc. A view of the front with the lens cover open. The viewfinder is on the left, and right next to it is the rangefinder window. Moving mid-camera, the small circular lens is actually the light measuring cell, and the camera lens is the large circular opening next to it. Make sure the lens cover is all the way open and the white dots are aligned, otherwise the camera won’t work. On the top is the date set window; I don’t want that crap ruining my pictures, so all are set to blank. Hotshoe use sets the shutter speed to 1/30 second, but you don’t need a flash unit mounted to get that shutter speed, anything pushed in the mount will set that speed, like a little plastic flash mount adapter. This feature is handy if you’re shooting in low light, and don’t want shutter speeds that are lower, or higher than 1/30s. On the rightside is the aperture and rangefinder sliders, we’ll get to that in a moment. The back is simply for loading film, and looking through the viewfinder. With the film loading door open, you can see the battery compartment on the left side, it’s the square with a circle in the middle. The lens light chamber is felt lined. The finder with parallax lines can be seen in this view. Here is the main control panel for the camera. The red slider is for focusing; you move the slider until the rangefinder patch subject coincides; you don’t really need to use the scale. The top blue colored slider is for setting the aperture, and are as follows: the white outlined ‘window’ and ‘flash’ symbol on the very left side is F/2, the odd shaped ‘cloud’ setting is F/4, , the ‘sun’ symbol is F/8, and the dot on the extreme right is F/16. At the bottom right are the shutter button, and the cable release socket; no, that’s not a tripod mount! The geared wheels are where you set the date for imprinting on your pictures; it ends at 12-31-’86 so Canon figured the camera would last about 10 years. The red switch is for checking the battery; when pressed, it triggers a orange light in the viewfinder if the battery has a sufficient charge. Underneath we have the film advance on the left, and a 1/4-20 tripod socket on the right. Canon 110 ED with Canolite ED flash and extender attached. The flash is quite powerful, but not very useful or handy for what’s supposed to be a pocket camera. The flash takes two ‘AA’ batteries. EMAIL ME WITH ANY QUESTIONS!
