It uses the Leica Thread Mount (LTM\/M39 screw mount), making it compatible with a massive range of vintage Canon, Leica, Nikon, and Soviet screw-mount lenses. The VT was Canon’s first major departure from its Leica-inspired bodies, introducing a swing-open back for easier film loading and the distinctive bottom-mounted trigger film advance. Shutter speeds range from 1 second to 1\/1000 sec plus Bulb and Time, using a horizontal cloth focal-plane shutter. The rotating variable-magnification viewfinder can switch between 35mm, 50mm, and a magnified RF focusing mode, which was extremely advanced for the mid-1950s. The camera is especially known today for its exceptional build quality, smooth trigger advance mechanism, and compatibility with fast Canon LTM lenses like the Canon 50mm f\/1.2 and 35mm f\/1.8\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Canon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42617634095150,"sku":"USECANVTRANBLA-U9","price":599.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2657\/1868\/files\/6eec3a83-a3a7-4796-9dfe-f5c86a0caf85.jpg?v=1785961222","url":"https:\/\/kmcamera.com\/products\/usecanvtranbla-u9","provider":"K\u0026M Camera","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
