NEW: Canon AE Power Winder FN. A little out of context since I haven't reviewed its matching camera yet, this is a power winder for Canon's New F-1 from 1981.
It is the electronic counterpart to motor drives and power winders in film cameras. It allows the camera to take a series of pictures, one right after another, by holding down the shutter release.
In extreme cold, you may find that the film does not rewind correctly with a power winder. Static buildup can result in sticking or breakage of the film. Don't worry too much, but be aware that this is possible.
