Canon EOS Rebel G 35mm film SLR w/ EF 28-90mm lens (serial 4108062)
The Canon EOS Rebel G is a compact, very lightweight, and easy-to-use autofocus 35mm film SLR camera from 1996. When using its 'auto' mode, the camera is as simple to use as a point-and-shoot but should you wish to go further, it offers a wide array of modes and manual controls. The included Canon EF 28-90mm f4-5.6 is a lightweight, flexible, general-purpose lens.
Like the other Canon EOS 35mm film SLRs, the Rebel G is a good choice for anyone who already owns a Canon digital SLR as it works with the same lenses (provided that they're the full-frame type).
This camera requires two CR123 lithium batteries (available as an option).
Condition notes
The camera and lens are in good cosmetic condition (see photos) with the most noteworthy blemish being a small hairline crack on the top of the camera (purely cosmetic, doesn't affect usage). All functions are working correctly. We verified that both the camera's shutter and auto-exposure are working with good acuracy.

Blinking shutter speed display is a camera-shake warning. Three focusing points (superimposed), in-focus indicator, exposure display dots (exposure compensation amount, metered manual exposure, autobracketing amount, red-eye reduction lamp-ON indicator, flash ready, high-speed sync, shutter speed setting and control value, and aperture setting and control value are displayed with a yellow-green LED. Panorama frame (New EOS Kiss only).
- External LCD: Film-loaded indicator, film rewind-completed indicator, manual focus, exposure display, shutter speed, aperture setting and control value, film speed, battery check, and other indications.
- Metering & Exposure Control: Composite SPC for TTL full-aperture metering (6-zone evaluative, 9.5% partial metering at center [set automatically during AE lock]) with shutter speed-priority AE, aperture-priority AE, shiftable Intelligent program AE, five program AE modes, depth-of-field AE, and metered manual. Manual exposure compensation range of ±2 EV (in 1/2-stop increments). AE lock enabled with a button. Autobracketing range of ±2 EV (in 1/2-stop increments) for three consecutive frames. Metering range at ISO 100 and f/1.4: EV 2 – 20. Film speed range: ISO 25 to 5000 (in 1/3-stop increments with DX code). Maximum 9 multiple exposures (cancellable manually).

With the optional Canon Speedlite 220E or 380EX, the camera’s AE lock button fires a preflash. The resulting reflection off the subject is metered (partial metering at center) by the AE sensor to determine the flash output. FE lock can also be controlled in this way. Guide No. 12 (at ISO 100 in m).
