Description
The Canonet 28 rangefinder is a cheaper consumer version of the famous Canonet QL17. The lens is a fixed 40mm f/2.8 Canon lens. It has fully programmed auto exposure (shutter speeds from 1/30 to 1/600 in viewfinder) and manual control of f-stops for flash. It uses a Copal leaf shutter and has a coupled rangefinder.
This Canonet was marketed from 1971 to 1976, and was one of the latest heavyweight compact cameras. By the late '70s, camera construction had begun a rapid change from metals to plastics.
