Bryna,
	My camera is also Canon, a T-90, which was the last one Canon made
before going to the EOS.  I still have an AE-1 and a T-70 for back-up. 
The T-90 has all the bells and whistles except for autofocus.  I keep
thinking I'd like to have autofocus, but I'd have to give up my FD
lenses, filters, extension tubes, dedicated flash, 2X teleconverter,
etc. and start from scratch.  I think I'll keep what I have.
