First Photos from Canonet

Here are the first photos from my AU$25 Canonet. All done with Manual exposure...so just relearning that side of things too.

nice shots - everything seems ok with your canonet. exposures are good also. and what model is that 17, 19 or 28.

Nice shots. Cute family. The first one is precious. I really like the third too. Looking closely, that looks like just an mundane grab or perhaps documentary shot from somewhere, possibly you back yard. However, you got a really nice composition there. I like it.

Great shots! I really like the color palette of the third shot... what kind of film and/or scanner?

Thanks everyone for your kind words.

This is an original Canonet.

The film was a cheapy roll of Fuji Superia 400 and the scanner was a HP Officescan with just basic settings.

I was just quickly testing the camera with some cheap film to see if it had any issues.

Thanks again,
Ben

Nice composition and subjects (the first two photos).

Yes, good photos, I especially like the first one. What a great camera!

The Canonet is one of the best fixed lens rangefinders ever made. Period. I have two. They outclass my Yashica Electro 35s by far, in my opinion. (Who else's opinion would count, anyways? Ha!)
