I just received my Canonet QL17 today, But the RF is OFF, and the Shutter is DOA. Though the meter seems to work. It responds in 1 stop increments with changing the SS's.

I need to have a CLA and repair of the shutter at least.
Where Do I send it in the USA....And I am looking at about $50-75 for this??
I paid $45.00, so another $50-75 is tolerable

Thanks Peter

I sent mine to Essex Camera Repair in NJ. It came back transformed! :) I paid $80 but I see on their Canon page (link below) their standard charge is $75 for the Canonet.

I have a RARE model too !!!! ;)

It IS Version 1, 1965-68, But it has the ISO settings of Version 2 (25-800)
Must be a a transitional Version SN: 578630. Everything else is Version 1
