| Notes | I don’t think anyone would say that the Petri 7S is in the same league as the Canonet GIII but in reality it has many of the same abilities including the ability to be used in fully manual mode without the need of a battery. For me there is also 1 plus. I find the simple light meter on top of the camera convenient and easier to use than the “through the viewfinder” meter of the GIII & Canonet 28. If you are just thinking about giving film photography a try for the first time you could do a lot worse than buy a Petri 7S especially as they can be had in working order for around 20 dollars!
I liked my F2.8 version of the camera so much I splashed out another 20 bucks on the F1.8 version. Sometime soon here I'll give them a side by side test.
