I have a nice, working 1961 Canonet (first model, selenium meter, f1.9 lens).
The whole lens seems loose and has a mm or so play. How do I approach fixing this? Details would be appreciated.
Also, I am looking for a couple of purely cosmetic fixes - a rear door, and a bottom plate - does anyone have these available? I am in Australia.
Many thanks

All I am asking for is guidance on tightening up a wobbly lens. The info. here on Canonets largely concerns later versions especially the GIII which does not seems to have the same design regarding the lens mount.

Sorry, been away for the weekend. Give me a couple of days and I will check the repair manual and if need be send some scams of the relevent pages.
