Earlier today I purchased a top of the range camera! I splurged a whopping US$35 on a Canon QL17 GIII which is the end of the line of their Canonet range. It’s a 1972 rangefinder camera sporting a 40mm f1.7 lens with 6 elements. Canon sold 1.2 million units making it the best selling rangefinder of the ’70’s and was often compared to the Leica CL.

Check out the specs here.

I’ve acquired a taste for these old cameras and I think I’ll be buying a few.
