Canon T series

Canon's T series[1] is Canon's final series of manual focus 35 mm single lens reflex cameras.

[3] All have a Canon FD lens mount compatible with Canon's extensive range of manual-focus lenses.

The T series attempted to update the SLR concept.

In the early 1980s, the SLR market share was declining with the increased popularity of highly automated 35 mm compact cameras; the T series introduced much more automation to the SLR camera, making it almost as easy to use as a point and shoot camera.

The final model, the Canon T60, was the odd one out; it was introduced after the FD manual lens mount was already obsolete, and while it carried over a few T-series styling cues, it was a manual camera supporting only aperture priority auto-exposure.
