The Canon EOS 5 of 1992-2000 was an advanced 35mm film SLR. It was represented on the American market by the EOS A2E. The American market also had a EOS A2 model. The A2 is a almost identical version without the eye control focusing. Two major technological advances were introduced with this model: 5-point selectable autofocus, and eye-controlled focusing. During the long product cycle of this camera, a QD (Quartzdate) model was also available.
The shutter is a electronic focal-plane shutter with speeds of 30 sec. to 1/8000 sec. B mode and X-sync at 1/60 to 1/200 sec.
The exposure meter is a SPC type for TTL full-aperture metering with a range of 0 to 20 EV (100 ISO f/1.4 lens). Metering modes include, 16-zone evaluative, center-weighted averaging and a 3.5% spot. Exposure modes include program, shutter priority, aperture-priority, depth-of-field AE, and metered manual exposure mode. A exposure compensation feature is also available with a range of ±2 EV in 1/2 stop. It is powered by 1x 6 V 2CR5 lithium battery. Date back variations use CR2025 3V lithium battery.
