Battery Door Canon AE-1

The best Canon AE-1 battery doors.

These are the best battery doors I've come across. I like these even better than the orginal Canon doors. Good tight fit and I've never had one come back. I've been repairing AE-1's since they came out, way back when. Highly recommended and priced right!

Does the job but not great

It fits but not perfectly. The grain is very different and noticeable that this is not OEM. The door doesn't open and close smoothly once installed.

Adequate, but not OEM

This is a rather cheap injection-molded plastic piece designed to look like the original battery door, but doesn’t really succeed. The texture is different than the original leatherette, and the latch didn’t work at all. I had to use the original latch arm and spring to make it work. Without that, some fitting would have been needed.
