CANONET SERIES |
Leather colors & types for Canonet |
|
|
|
We can make cover sets for all the Canonets. For those contemplating a new covering, the Canonets fall into 3 main groups: The original Canonet with the solar cell and bottom wind, the QL 17/19 of 1964-70 and the "new Canonet" smaller cameras from 1970 onward, which includes the G-III, the second generation QL series, and the Canonet 28. Canonet owners like to have fun with their cameras, and that's reflected in the choice of materials shown here. Left: Dark brown lizard skin. On this camera, the "G-III" badge has been removed.
|
Right: Spring Green Kid (Goat) Skin. Now here's something to enliven your photography. Don't be fooled . . . this is some of the most luxurious leather you can buy. To see all the materials available for you Canonet, follow the colors & materials link at the top of the page. |

Left: Grey
lizard skin. The scales on the genuine Lizard skin vary quite a bit;
this
one has a very fine-grained pattern. The first cover I made for this camera was for a photographer friend who hated the little "G-III QL" badge on the front, and wanted to reskin his camera without it. In the end he had a very businesslike little camera. If you would like the holes deleted for the "QL" or "G-III" badges, just let us know. |
The black Canonets can be eye-catching. The red color on your monitor isn't as faithful as it could be . . . the actual color is a more of an apple or fire-engine red. This is the "QL" Canonet, and the emblem has been retained on this make-over in red snake. |

| Here's a G-III
covered in Matte Brown Ostrich, and Red Ringmark Lizard. Canonets are
so much
fun to recover (and so easy to recover) that owners of multiple cameras
sometimes dress up their entire "fleet". The Ostrich is a custom order, and --sorry to say--the Red Ringmark Lizard is out of stock! |
