Week 309 - Canonet QL17

Canonet QL17
This is a large range-finder camera from around 1965. It has a fast lens, and unlike some similar models, has full manual control in addition to the automatic exposure system. I didn't even try putting a battery in, as there was evidence of previous battery leakage, and I'm quite happy to use manual mode.
I found a roll of expired Jessops PAN400 SX black and white film, which expired in 2008, so I thought I'd give that a go.

  1. Nice. I know of one of these for sale (quite cheap) locally, and I've been wondering if I should go for it or not. I have a small-ish slr (an AV-1), but this is a cool little camera.
