Thanks , i only purchased mint items and they're hardly used; they mainly sit in my classic collection cabinet ... a shame really for such nice looking gear for i do mainly digital these days ...once in a while i give them a workout and shoot a roll here and there and scan the film onto TIFF and play in PS ...I wish the new digital cams were that beautiful  ...cheers  |

I'll post this here too. My latest (and probably last for a while) acquisition. 
OBTW, those 7s and Ps are very attractive cameras. |

I wish my canonet were black, and maybe I'd do something stupid like this.

Nice shots Karl! I've always liked the Demi's even thought I haven't had the chance to handle one yet... Your 50/1.8 looks absolutely immaculate!

I hadn't yet noticed any VI-Ts in this thread (apologies if I simply overlooked yours!) so here's mine in two of its guises:
The gizmo attached to the front of the 50/1.2 lens is a parallax-compensated "Auto-Up" close-up attachment; if you're not familiar with these, you can read a little writeup I did on them by clicking here.
All you can see of it in the second picture is the end of its wrist strap, but my VI-T is equipped with the original Canon baseplate grip, which makes using the trigger winder much handier. Since there's no frameline for the 85/1.5 lens, I'm showing it with a Canon 85-135 zoom finder which I just got today. This finder has the little pin needed to work with the VI-T's auto parallax correction pin in the accessory shoe. This finder, by the way, doesn't have a very long zoom range, but it's by far the brightest, clearest zoom viewfinder I've ever used.

Well I am sure some of you collector types will probally kill me, but the white text on the front of the lens been painted over with black matte enamel paint (it got a scratch on the paint, so in attempt to conceal the scratch, I took a dab, and was like aww screw it.) So now it looks exactly the same and great condition still (glass was never damaged, nor the metal), but you just see a black ring around the lens as opposed to the branding, serial number and focal length). I don't plan to ever resell the lens, and lens are intended to take pictures, not be looked at all the time  . |

Ok here we go, I just reshot the Canon P 5 mins ago while I'm here at work, so you can see what I meant by "repainted". (one shot without the filter on, and one with the UV on.

Probably has something to do with the sudden breakup of Belgium that I was reading about in the newspaper today...

this is the right page... but you can only see the ad banner.
I cannot explain this  ; when I try , it works normally.
Did you tried a copy/paste of the link ?
Do you use recent computers ?
Or maybe you did not wait enough the page loading ???
Anyway I attached a file with my user canon RF ; hope I did it right...
Cheers. |

Is it just me, or are none of the Canons you attached a Canon P, two are 7s, and the last one... not sure what that is, not a P tho. |

I use mainly the P due to its nice design ; I also used the chrome 7; though the black 7 is fully working, it's only for the collection; the other camera pictured is a Canon V-T.
There are also in my collection Canons IIB, II-F, IIIa, IV-F, IV-SB and some SLR's (F1n, EF,AE-1,...)
Sorry Firefox users, I made the site with Frontpage a few years ago. Perhaps I could do something in the future to make it readable by any browser...
