October 1952 - June 1954

Production: 2400 units
Serial numbers: 72400 - 125000

Sometimes identified as Canon IID', for some reason it is difficult to convince people to believe in the Canon IID1, despite the fact that separate production tallies were kept for it and that the IID1 was listed and described in sales catalogues including that dated July 1 1954, issued by the Canon Sales Company Inc., in New York.

It was exactly the same as the IID except that it had a film speed reminder in its wind knob.
