Seiki Kogaku (now Canon) began to develop and subsequently to produce rangefinder cameras with the Kwanon prototype in 1933, based on the Leica II 35mm camera, with separate rangefinder and view finder systems (3 windows). Production began with the Hansa Canon on the Leica III format through World War II. Post war, Canon resumed production of pre-war designs in early 1946 with the JII viewfinder and the S1 rangefinder. But in late 1946 they introduced the SII which departed from the Leica design by offering a combined viewfinder/rangefinder system, reducing the windows on the front of the camera to two. However, in most other respects these cameras remained visually similar to the Leica III.
Kwanon (1933) Nippon Kogaku (now Nikon) provided Seiki Kogaku with funding, Nikkor lenses, rangefinders, and technical assistance
Canon (1936) Known today as the "Original Canon" The viewfinder moved to the top of the camera, differing from the Leica
Hansa Canon (1936) Omiya Trading Co marketed original Canon with the Hansa name above the Canon name on the top
Canon S (1939) Standard model. The word "Hansa" disappeared from the brand name, and was replaced with just "Canon"
Canon NS (1939) New Standard. A Canon S without the slow shutter speeds
Canon J (1939) J stands for Junior a non-rangefinder model.
Canon J II (1946) Similar if not the same as prewar cameras
Canon S (1946) Similar if not the same as prewar cameras
Canon S II (1946) A redesign with combined range finder and viewfinder functions – two windows
In 1956, Canon departed from the Leica II Style and developed a more contemporary look, along with a Contax style self-timer level to the left of the lens mount. This was the first Canon camera with a swing-open camera back for film loading. Upper end models had a new three-mode viewfinders and winding triggers.
Canon 7 (1961) Including a built-in meter and improved viewfinder system.
Canon partnered with U.S. manufacturer Bell & Howell between 1961 and 1976 and a few Canon products were sold under the Bell & Howell brand e.g. Canon 7 Rangefinder, Canon EX-EE, and the Canon TX.
Canon developed and produced the Canon R lens mount for film SLR cameras in 1959. The FL lens mount replaced R-mounts in 1964.
Canonflex (1959) – Planned as Canon's first professional-class SLR camera body, but it was not successful. Available with builtin motor-drive option (not detachable).
Canonflex R2000 (1960) – An upgrade with 1/2000 shutter speed (up from 1/1000)
Canonflex RP (1960) – simplified Canonflex without the interchangeable prism/viewer
Canonflex RM (1962) – A redesign of the RP with builtin metering and a lower profile prism. Offered with an f/1.2 58mm lens option
Canon developed and produced the Canon FLlens-mount standard for filmSLR cameras from 1964 to replace the Canon R lens-mount standard. The FDlens mount standard replaced FL-mounts in 1971.
In 1969 Canon introduced an economy camera/lens system where the rear three elements (in two groups) were built-on-to the camera, and several front element options could be interchanged. This had been used by Zeiss-Ikon in their mid-level cameras of their Contaflex series, and by Kodak in early interchangeable lenses for the top-end Retina series (later going to full lenses). Canon offered four lens options: 35mm f/3.5, 50mm f/1.8, 95mm f/3.5, and 125mm f/3.5.
Through the lens metering was center weighted and automatic exposure was shutter speed priority. Only two cameras were offered and the line was not successful.
Canon developed and produced the Canon FDlens mount standard for filmSLR cameras from 1971 to replace the FLlens mount standard.
The FD mount had two variants – original lenses used a breechlock collar to mount whilst later versions used a standard bayonet twist lock with a short twist action.
The EF lens mount standard superseded FD-mounts in 1987. Canon ceased to produce FD-mount cameras in 1994.
F series
Canon F-1 (1971) – Reputed as Canon's first successful professional-class SLR camera body. The 1959 Canonflex professional camera system (above) failed and was down-featured for the consumer market.
In 1987, Canon introduced the EOS Single-lens reflex camera system along with the EF lens-mount standard to replace the 16-year-old FD lens-mount standard; EOS became the sole SLR camera-system used by Canon today[update]Template:Dated maintenance category (articles)Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters".. Canon also used EOS for its digital SLR cameras. All current film and digitalSLR cameras produced by Canon today[update]Template:Dated maintenance category (articles)Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters". use the EOSautofocus system. Canon introduced this system in 1987 along with the EFlens mount standard. The last non-EOS based SLR camera produced by Canon, the Canon T90 of 1986, is widely regarded as the template for the EOS line of camera bodies, although the T90 employed the older FD lens-mount standard.
Canon entered the compact camera market with the AF35M in 1979, which spawned a successful line known as Sure Shot in North America and Autoboy in Japan. In 1988, the Prima line was launched for the European and international markets. Canon continued to produce compact film cameras until 2005.
In 1982, Canon released the Snappy 50 as a smaller and more affordable alternative to the Autoboy/Sure Shot line. The Snappy sub-brand was used globally until 1988, when several models were released in Europe and most international markets under the Prima line.
Released in 1984, the MC ("Micro Compact") was a higher-end compact camera made with emphasis on compactness and build quality. The camera does not have a built-in flash; instead, it can be equipped with the optional Speedlite MC-S flash unit.[3]

Canon MC 10 (1985)

In 1993, Canon released the low-cost LA camera for emerging markets.

NoteJet
Template:Main article
Beginning in Spring 1993, Canon produced a series of notebooks with integrated inkjet printers called NoteJet. The initial price for the first-model NoteJet was U.S. $2,499.[12] The NoteJet lineup was eventually discontinued, and computers belonging to the series are valued by collectors.

Printers
Canon printers are supplied with Canon Advanced Printing Technology (CAPT), a printer driver software stack developed by Canon. The company claims that its use of data compression reduces their printer's memory requirement, good quality compared to conventional laser printers, and also claim that it increases the data transfer rate when printing high-resolution graphics.[15]
Canon PJ-1080A colour inkjet (also sold under several other brand names)
Series introduced in the 1990s.
Canon refers to inkjet printers as bubblejets, hence the frequent BJC-prefix (BubbleJet Color).

Since about 2005 Canon introduced a numbering scheme for some whereby the least significant (non-zero) digit signifies the geographic region ("3" signifying Japan) the device is sold in. This leads to a large number of models, all belonging to the same family, but possibly incompatible to some degree, and also makes it difficult to ascertain whether a device is unique or part of an existing family. The software driver filename will often use the family designation.
EF-S lenses are built for APS-C 1.6x crop sensors, so they only work with models that use this sensor size. When EF-S lenses are used on a 35mm (full frame) camera the back element will hit the mirror assembly or cause substantial vignetting since the sensor is bigger than the image produced by the lens.
Note: Even though the tilt-shift and dedicated macro lenses are designated TS-E and MP-E respectively, these lenses are still compatible with the EF mount.
