AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Here is a splendid, solid, and iconic vintage rangefinder camera for collection: the Canonet first series, produced in Japan by Canon Camera Co. Inc. in Tokyo starting in 1961.
The lot is presented in good overall condition and is functional in manual mode, complete with its original vintage leather hard case.
Optics: The camera mounts the extraordinary and exceptionally bright original fixed Canon Lens SE 45mm 1:1.9. The lenses are in excellent preserved condition, clean, transparent, and free of scratches or traces of mold and fungi internally.
Mechanical and Operation: The lot has been tested and is mechanically functional. The focal plane shutter responds promptly to manual commands, shooting regularly. As is common for a vintage piece of its age, the selenium cell at the front is discharged and the light meter needle is not reactive; the camera therefore operates exclusively in traditional manual mode, allowing free selection of shutter speeds and apertures.
Aesthetics: Good vintage condition, as clearly documented by the photographs. The solid, robust metal body retains its satin silver and black finish, showing only the usual light surface signs consistent with its age.
Tracked international shipping, fully insured and professionally super-protective packaging to ensure maximum safety during transport.
