Canon Canonet
Owners of old canons (preferably a canonet 28) who use them to take pics, need help!?
I want to use my Canonet 28 to use for photographing, but there are a few things i need help with. Like how do you open it?? Ive been tryin for days to open it and i dont want to kill it, i thinkk its jammed. Second, I think there might still be film in it, the top number slot shows numbers (right now its on 24) but the number slot on the back has red and white stripes.
Also, if anyone has a bookleti can buy on ebay or sometin please let me know, THANK YOU!
To open you lift up the film rewind (on the top left of the top of the camera), and you pull it up.
To check if there is film in there, crank the thumb lever (film advance) and see if the film rewind rotates. If it does then there is film in it.
Be aware that these cameras use the now extinct mercury 625 1.35v battery. Not a huge problem though as there are PX625a batteries commonly available and you will need to slightly overexpose by a stop, run a test roll to see how they come out.
No doubt when you open this then the light seals will be gungy and no good. They may possibly last a little longer, but they are worth replacing (and sometimes it is simply essential to ensure a light tight seal). I replace all the light seals in my cameras myself, and although it is a little daunting when you first attempt it yourself, the satisfaction of doing it is incredible. I bought a kit from eBay of various thickness of foam, some light seal remover (for removal of the old light seals), and some glue. The kit cost me £15 and has replaced the seals in over 20 cameras so far. If you shop on eBay then check this guy out (Interslice), he has ready cut light seal kits for dozens of cameras and if you are stuck then email him, he is very helpful.

And finally, here is a manual for you to read.
