Description

(Please read) Collector’s interest: Canonet QL17 G-III overhauled in 2020. Canon CCA4 1.5x Amber filter. Comes with Canolite D flash and original hood in soft nylon cases, original camera strap and brand-new TP leather half case, Camera is mint but other items may present cosmetic wear otherwise very clean and in excellent working condition.

I had concluded that in auto mode it meters sporadically –probably due to old age– but all speeds and manual apertures work as they should. If you have experience repairing cameras, you may like to get a meter part from a camera donor. Otherwise, you can use a phone app or external meter like the excellent “Doomo Meter”. It can even compensate with (+ or -) since the aperture ring is stepless. (Notice that the meter in the images/s IS NOT included in this sale)

I buy all my classic vintage cameras from estate sales; I clean them, send them for repair, test and make some great pictures. I keep some of them for a while, then I will sell them when I get new ones. I rarely keep the same cameras as I like to rotate with new vintage cameras I haven’t tried before.

See the images of the pictures I took with this camera in the last frame/s. Message me with questions you may have before committing to buy. Please note that these items are considered vintage and the sale will be final.
