Of course they can. Another good question is what should be included for the price of the camera. Judging from what was in my Canon A-1 box, you should get the body, battery (if necessary), eye piece hood (the little rubber thing that surrounds the eye piece), and camera strap. A salesman at Olden tried to sell me an eye-piece hood (for $5) at the same time he sold me the body. When I noticed one was in the box (while he was getting a strobe for me) I told him I didn't want the extra one so he took it back with no argument. (All in all, my dealings with Olden have been good.) By the way which store had the salesman who yelled at you because your friend wanted to buy a camera without a case? I'll be sure to avoid that place. Wally Dietrich
