Introduction

‘The Canon Speedlite 133A is an automatic
electronic, direct contact flash designed
especially for the Canon A-1, AE-1, AV-1
and AT-1 single-lens reflex’ cameras. It
mounts directly in the camera's accessory
shoe where it couples directly to the camera
without the need forasynchronization cord.
It is intended primarily for use with ASA
180, 100 or 400 film and with lenses having
2 speed of 1/4 or faster.

Lacking the usual, complicated calculator
dial, the Speedlite 133 makes flash photog-
raphy about as easy as it can be. The A-1
‘or AE-1 with an FD lens on “A’" and with

‘ASA 80, 100 or 400 film, is switched to
the flash mode automatically when the
pilot lamp glows — no special setting neces-
sary. With the AV-1 or AT-1, setting the
lens’ aperture ring to f/4 is all that is required.
‘On all these cameras, the shutter speed is
set automatically to the flash synchroniza-
tion speed of 1/60 sec. when the pilot lamp
glows.

‘Compact and lightweight, the 133A is great
for supersimple automatic flash shooting
with other cameras as well.
