Description from the seller

Canon Canonet 35mm rangefinder camera, early 1960s (circa 1961–1963).

This is an original first-generation Canonet, featuring the characteristic bottom-mounted film advance lever. A well-known and collectible Japanese rangefinder, appreciated for its solid construction and fast 45mm f/1.9 lens.
Condition:
The camera is in good vintage condition with normal signs of use appropriate for its age. Please refer to the photos for a detailed impression.
Functionality:
The camera is working: the shutter fires and the film advance operates correctly. The built-in light meter is also responsive; however, the shutter occasionally appears to stick or hang. It has a little dent on the lens casing and a little crack in the glass of the rangefinder window (see pictures), however this doesnt affect the functionality.
A nice collector’s piece that can also be used with some attention.

Included:
Camera, leather case and leather sling
Sold as-is as a vintage item, no guarantees.
