Canon is making this easy for us. But there are still a few wrinkles to discuss before we can be certain. For an example, although I list the Model 7sZ the designation on the body is 7s. However, we shall get to that. The possible cameras with Model designations on them are:

Model	Date		Model	Date		Model	Date
Canon VT	Apr 1956		Canon L2	Dec 1956		Canon VTD	Feb 1957
Canon L1	Feb 1957		Canon VTDZ	Apr 1957		Canon L3	Oct 1957
Canon VI-T	Jun 1958		Canon P	Dec 1958		Canon 7	Jun 1961
Canon 7s	Apr 1965		Canon 7sZ	Aug 1967

Chose the Model Name on your Camera

The next step is to chose the model name on your camera and we can get into what you really have in your hands.

If you make a wrong selection you can go back one step or all the way to the beginning one step at a time. If you simply get lost or want to look up another camera you can go straight to the beginning again and start over. Or, if you feel you don’t need all the explanations you can go to the Rapid Finder. You get the same questions but in abbreviated form with no discussion or photos.
