The viewfinder attached to New F-1 in the figure above is "AE finder FN".

It was right after ten years from the birth of "F-1" which Canon declared to be remained unchanged that a successor to the F-1 came on the market. The New F-1 employed electronical & optical technologies cultivated through ten years of time, and became the flagship model with many functions and automatic operation for a new age. As a result that the camera was electronically controlled, it realized high-level system AE. And yet, the camera's basic controls were followed from the F-1 so the F-1 users could easily manage it with little difficulty.
