I've got the physical manual for the EOS IX (I bought the camera new back
when it first came out in 1996). Is there anything in particular you would
like to know about it? If so, I could scan and send you the appropriate
pages...

Ian -
Thanks for your reply.
I found the IX on Ebay at a 'Buy It Now' price of £30 - from a seller
in Italy!!
I have an EOS 10D but looking back over the numerous film SLRs that I
have owned the one that stands out is the IX - which I sold some time
ago. The IX is beautifully designed and the build quality is
outstanding - I also liked the APS format: I had a hankering to have
one again 'for old time's sake'and couldn't resist buying one at such a
low price.
Old Timer Cameras have user manuals £14.95 for an original and £9.95
for a copy: being essentially mean, even the copy price seems high in
pro****tion to the cost of the camera. There are websites where manuals
can be downloaded at a very low price but none have a manual for the
IX.I suppose I'll have to 'bite the bullet' and buy one unless I can
remember what was in the manual re the finer points of use!
Luckily, I still have the relevant ERC tucked away in my 'odds and ends
'draw.
Best wishes -
