I have that same camera and I had not shot with it yet. But recently I finally put a roll in it and started to use it. I haven't seen the results yet but here's hoping I got some good shots.
Sweet! And how’s been the shooting experience so far? I personally love how small and manageable it is, and how silent the shutter is! Gotta be one of the most silent out there 😁
Love my QL17 G-iii. Has a big beautiful rangefinder, awesome focal length, and wide max aperture. What the hell was Canon thinking with that filter thread size. Nothing is 48 mm. NOTHING...
Well, as you might know this camera is a shutter priority camera, which means that I can only set the shutter speed and the camera will choose the aperture that will give a good exposure. I don’t remember exactly what shutter speed I was using at that moment, but probably a speed that would give me an aperture of 5.6 or 8 since I wanted to get a deep depth of field for those street shots and it was still sunny! In summary it is the cameras doing, the metering is really spot on! Hope this helps, Cheers.
I'm waiting for mine to arrive and hope I end up really liking it too. It's just too bad that at the moment I can't send rolls of film to be processed at a place in Melbourne that's both cheap (compared to other labs) and good. Covid restrictions are so strict that a lot of businesses have had to seriously restrict what they can do. So they are still supplying film by post but not doing any processing :-(.
Hi Szilvia! I am sure you will love this camera once you start using it. I understand about the development problems but maybe it is an opportunity to find motivation to learn development at home? I really encourage you to try it. We do all our development and scanning home and although is a bit of an investment and learning curve at the beginning, it is the most rewarding thing to be part of the whole process! All the best ☺️
Fabulous camera!
Great photo walk - love it :-)
Love this photo walk.
Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for commenting ☺️☺️
I should be getting my nice little Canonet I purchased off eBay in a couple days, can’t wait! Great video🙏🏼
What a great holiday addition then!! I hope you enjoy shooting with it as much as we do. Happy new canonet year!

@@CrunchyFingers so far so good. i had never used a rangefinder before but i am enjoying it.
Great video! I'm thinking about getting this camera.
It’s a great camera, I always recommend it as an affordable reliable and discreet rangefinder! Go for it!

Did you try using step up filters? 😊 we got a bunch of them from wish, they’re not the best quality but they get the job done 👍🏼
5:38, what was your settings to get that blue sky? I tried couple times with the exact same camera and film, still could not get as good as yours
