The Canon Canonet QL17 is a classic rangefinder loved by street photographers for its bright lens and quiet, discreet shutter. You focus by lining up two images in the viewfinder, then choose your shutter speed while the camera sets the right aperture for you. Its Quick Load system makes putting in a new roll of film simple, even for complete beginners. The 45mm f1.7 lens is the real star, letting in plenty of light for evening scenes and creating soft, beautiful backgrounds. Its gentle leaf shutter is almost silent, perfect for candid moments where you do not want to be noticed. Larger and brighter than rivals like the Konica C35, it is a wonderful step into rangefinder photography.

Due to the age of this camera and the nature of old light meters we can’t guarantee that the light meter still works. This isn’t an issue as the camera will function perfectly without batteries. To meter a scene before taking a picture we recommend using an external light-meter or for you to take our online course that will teach you how to use a film camera without the use of any external tools.
