Canon Canonet QL17

[Jcsmith97]

Hey so I recently picked up a QL17 from a local antique store and everything works on it except for the threaded hood ring which is bent towards the top. Does anyone know how to fix it or replace it and know where to get one? Thanks!!

Try a browser search for the following terms . . .

"Lens Vise Tool Repair Filter Ring"

and see if it might turn up the tool you're looking for. There's probably some videos online also showing the tool in use as well.

I would think any good camera repair shop could fix it quite easily.  If you don't have one, try Midwest Camera Repair.
