Found at a yard sale for peanuts over the weekend. A mint
condition Canon L-1 with 50/1.8 black lens. It had been in
storage in its case and had a roll of Kodacolor-X film still in it.
Everything works perfectly and the VF is very clean.

Just this guy, you know?
So, did you get the film developed yet, or what?
Nice find, by the way.

A real beauty! The L1 is my favorite Canon rangefinder.

No. It didn't look like more than a couple frames had been used
and I don't generally process old found film anyway.

This was one of four cameras I bought at that sale for $75 total.

Nice find! Rocky Mountain Film Lab says they can develop Kodacolor-X (process "C-22").

Bet the other 3 are a Leica M3 w/Summicron DR, an old Nikon rangefinder, & another old Leica IIIG. I'm I right?

^ Nope, sorry to say. The others would be off-topic for this forum.

Ooh, that's a awfully nice find! Lately I have been scourging the local flea markets, but it's always the same people with the same junk. Hopefully I'll get lucky one day.
