Star Ferry Service and Harbour in Victoria Sea, Hong Kong

May I introduce, the first "moving" LomoLocation - the Star Ferry & their services in Hong Kong Victory Harbour! There's plenty of opportunities to do some sight seeing but you have to be fast or you'll miss it as you're cruising down the water.

Canon Canonet QL17

Often described (as many other cameras are) as the "poor man's Leica", the Canon Canonet QL17 is a brilliant rangefinder at a fraction of the cost of most other rangefinders. It sports a crystal clear, tack sharp, f1.7 45mm lens that accurately captures colors as well as all the gradients between black and white. Produced in the mid-1960s and sturdily built, many excellent examples of this camera and later versions can be found on ebay for a steal. Due to age, the light seals need to replaced but this can be done by most camera enthusiasts with a sheet of black foamy, x-acto knife, and some adhesive. There are several website that offer instructions on how to replace the seals simply by plugging Canonet QL17 into a search engine.
