A month ago I bought such a camera "as it" , with a booster but without a battery magazine, without an eyecup, with so dirty frenel glass and little bit broken viewfinder glass, bought it at an auction for 40 euros + 30 shipping. When the camera came to me, I didn't even know if it was working, the mirror was stuck in the upper position, everything was covered in dust. I was able to connect the wires to the contacts of the booster and gave power and everything worked, after which I was able to find a bm-e1 battery magazine with very great difficulty, they are nowhere on sale, I had to wait for my own from Denmark, today the battery magazine was delivered to me, during this time I found lenses, an eyecup EC series and bought a donor canon ef-m for $ 10 from which I hope the viewfinder glass will fit my eos-1, and I will only have to paint over a couple of scratches on the body. In the description of the item at the auction it was written that the owner of the camera hopes that someone can return her to her former glory, I think I did it :)

Where can I find the list of custom functions?
Can this camera do double exposure?
HI hzubovi1,
Yes can do it, since it has the function of multiple exposures, select the number 2 when setting the desired number of exposures.
