I had to wait a while for a good one to come by on ebay. Its so mint, even had the original mercury 625 battery inside and working.

takekazu, you seem to be downright addicted to classic cameras. Nice collection!

A great little camera! Bright lens and rangefinder make it the ideal camera for lowlight 35mm photography.

You can buy yourself one of these from cameraquest.com, not so expensive at all.

The Canonet was the first 35mm Camera that I ever used. It was a great camera! I have used Nikons for about the last 30 years.

I am using my ”New Canonet QL17L” (model name according to Canon) along side with my digital camera Canon PowerShot G5. I really like this Canonet camera. I now and then load it with Kodachrome 64 slide film.
I also like my G5!... :-)

Well.. I'm not 100% sure, but I may have a QL17-L camera. It has just that normal QL17 text on it, but it also fits in to the description of QL17-L (a battery test button and test zone in the viewfinder): www.canon.com/camera-museum/camera/1970-1975/ data/1970_qd...
And as you requested a picture of the camera: www.flickr.com/photos/sikaheimo/394368952/
