I recently came into possession of a Canon Pellix QF that I had back in high school some 20 years or so ago that was my uncle's camera brand new before that.
Unfortunately, the pellicle is damaged to the point the camera is unusable but I have 2 lenses that I don't want to get rid of.
Are there any other Canon manual focus bodies these lenses would be compatible with?

I thnk the "FL" mount is the same as the FD, and it seems some FD lenses would work with the Pellix, but it's not celar if the reverse was true.
The Pellix is a nice colector camera; I wonder if it would be possible to get the mirror replaced? I understand that yellowing and separation were a problem with the pellicle mirrors on the early Canons. |

I took the camera in to a local shop this afternoon and the guy there told me that the pellicle is not a replaceable or repairable part, which is unfortunate because that camera took really nice shots.
But i would like to find a body that might work with the lenses since they are still in really good working order.
I believe the guy from the camera shop said that it was the FL model that the lenses should work with but was just looking for some additional input.
