Canonet_QL17_GIII_by_laRyNxTrANce.jpg


just got a Canonet QL17 GIII for myself=D spent 90 on this but it cost 100+ for cleaning and some minimal repair==​
 

Will weigh them & let you know later......:bsmilie:

LOL lend you my micro balance......:bsmilie:

But seriously, cos it looks quite solid...

hehehe...can micro balance take the weight? I used a kitchen scale, not so precise but good enough.

Noctilux 690g
Summicron 90mmAA BP(=brass) 680g
Fujinon 10cmf2 630g
Fujinon 5cmf1.2 530g

Fujinon lenses are very well build, very solid, very refined.
You need to feel it to appreciate! It's just a pm away.;):)

Oh my goodness!! Just about every focal length that Canon makes is there. 135mm is the only exception.

Cheers,

Ok, Guys. It's RESERVED for Sir Dankwan if I ever sell this.;)
But it's heart-breaking to break up this lovely Fujinon family.
Fujinon, is highly regarded by the Japanese themselves. If anything, I'll rather someone adopt & keep the whole family intact in Singapore.

Sir DanKwan,
:faint:I lost consciousness for a while!! :faint: Just recovered after 2 hours!!
But I also have to be honorable to myself. I did tell myself when I got the last piece, Fujinon3.5cm f2, that I would let the family go to someone who is serious about keeping it intact to enjoy.
It's YOURS!:angel:
We do it after CNY ok?

Yes, quality from the fujinon is very good. I do not own any LTM version of the lens but I am very please with my Fujinon large format lenses, the XPAN and also Hasselblad HC lenses. All make by Fujinon.:)

I also lost consciousness after reading this!!! Oh my god! This set is so difficult to put together! I'm sure it's a momentary lapse of reasoning. Right?

I feel faint again....

Dan my brother, I don't think you're that old. Both of you are probably born in the Hippie era, but definitely not old enough to go to Jimi Hendrix, the WHO, Santana, Led Zeppelin concerts back then.
