It has a bunch of features that are so great I wish they were standard on every camera. When the shutter is cocked a little window on the back will show red, when the shutter is uncocked it'll show white. This is important because there's no shutter lock unless the camera thinks you're under or over-exposing in which case it won't let the shutter button be pressed (I hate this, I wish it would just warn me and let me do what I want so that I can have the meter needle active AND shoot manually). If you're shooting manual and you throw the camera in your bag the shutter can go off so set it to "auto" when you have the cap on.
There are some zig-zagging red and white lines with shake from side to side to let you know if the film is advancing properly, side to side movement means you're advancing properly, no movement means the film is out of the sprocket. This also makes unloading the camera very easy and I've never lost a frame with my canonet. That's the end of the features I wish were on every camera.
It only has frame lines on three of the four sides of the rectangle. The right hand side of the frame lines are open, pic related that I pulled from google. I'm never quite sure where my frame will actually be.
The rangefinder gets knocked out of vertical alignment pretty easily, never super far but it's noticeable for me. Maybe a mm or so. Thankfully it's very easy to fix. I've got a feeling that it's temperature related somehow rather than being susceptible to physical knocks.
The meter is pretty accurate in good conditions, but I've found it can be a little erratic in low light. Shoot manually to get the most out of it. Manually is fully manual, the meter needle is not active unless you're on auto.
It's very quiet, and small. I didn't expect it to be as heavy as it was, but it's still lighter than my SLR.
