I used to want a Canonet for a mountain bike camera. That's back before I went all digital, of course. The light weight, compact body, and fast, excellent lens made it a great camera for all around outdoor use. I knew at least a couple mountain bikers who used them on the trail.

By the way, we have reviews here for those cameras. Unfortunately, they're very hard to get to right now. We're having some issues with out-of-production equipment and the new review system. But here's a link to the Canonet QL-Series rangefinder camera reviews: http://www.photographyreview.com/cat...3_3138crx.aspx
