Commercialisé à partir de 1978, le Canon A-1 est l'appareil photo reflex au sommet de la série A (le Canon AE-1 fut le premier de la série).
C'est un appareil photo très élaboré, digital.
A cela s'ajoutent des options dignes des matériels professionnels. La motorisation avec le Drive MA qui permet des prises de vue à la cadence de 5 images par seconde (fps), ou les Power Winders A et A2. Comme le Canon AE-1, l'A-1 peut utiliser le Data Back A, un système de datage couplé au moteur et au flash.
Le Canon A-1 est un appareil polyvalent, probablement un des plus intéressants boîtiers Canon à optique FD (les objectifs Canon FD sont réputés pour leur grande qualité). Cet appareil photo reflex se trouve assez fréquemment sur les sites de ventes aux enchères à prix assez élevé mais en rapport avec ses étonnantes possibilités.
