About

The EOS 850 is an autofocus SLR for 35mm film introduced by Canon in 1988. The EOS 750 and 750QD are nearly identical, but add a popup flash. The EOS 850 was a very simplified EOS model, primarily meant to use programmed autoexposure, with no manual alternative. Film handling is motorized, and the camera requires a 6-volt lithium 2CR5 battery to operate.
