  Vijay,
Try keh.com. They are an honest, reputable used camera broker in Atlanta, Georgia, USA. Look for Canon manual focus lenses. An FD lens keeps the aperture wide open when metering. An older FL lens requires that you press a lever on the camera to stop the lens down to its shooting aperture. 50-mm lenses are very resonably priced, as are 35, and 28-mm wide angles. Hold on to your A1; it's a great camera.

  In India, you periodically get second hand lenses from baazee.com. Right now, I think I saw an offer for a few FD lenses. You could check it out. Else, you can try the used market.
