I bought my Canon A1 two years ago with a 1.4 lens, a 2x
extender and a 70-210 zoom.  Iam very happy with it.
I have dropped the zoom lens cracking the filter on
front without any damage to the lens itself.  I generally
shoot in the program mode except in poor light conditions.
Then I will shift to a fixed shutter speed to get the lens
to open up all the way.  Or if I am using the telephoto, I
may go to 1/250 for a handheld shot to insure I get
the fast shutter speed.
