Canon Canonet 28 35MM Film Camera

The Canon Canonet 28 was first introduced on the market in the 1970s as a consumer-friendly accessory. It served as one of the last heavyweight compact cameras as the onset of the transition from metal to plastic bodies took place. This camera has several features that will help you take better-quality photos. Front and center on the body, there is the fixed 40-millimeter f/2.8 effects lens fitted with a CdS lightmeter. If the lightmeter cannot find sufficient lighting, the exposure button will not let you make an exposure. That's when the exposure indicator will let you know to attach a flash. 

The camera has few controls, mechanical or otherwise. A top-mounted film advance lever (coated in hard plastic in an appearance reminiscent of an aircraft empennage), a nondescript film rewind knob, a threaded shutter release, a plastic aperture ring (admittedly best left on “A”), a discrete ISO tab on the lens barrel, featuring a relatively sparse range from 25-400, and the metal focusing ring.
