I dusted off a canonet Ql with the 40 1.7, good conditions, got it from nearby town some years ago with a nice tripod and this sun telenet mini 35 add-on lens.
An identical one can be seen here (not mine but identical http://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/48mm-sun-telenet-mini-35-lens-tele-305250887)
Now before using it I'm asking if this lens (a doublet, the bigger convex lens is coupled by glue to a smaller negative lens, very simple construction) is a sort of double face contraption that will work as a tele attachment and as a wide angle attachment (wild guess).
This because its separate finder has two frames, one labeled tele, covering about the field of an 80 mm, and a wide labeled frame, which seems to cover a 35 mm lens angle.
Puzzled.
I need obviously to try it but I would be interested in some opinions on this contraption, as well as on the canonet (I remember shooting a single roll with it, results looked like ordinary stuff but lab was not a professional one and prints were small).
