How to use a Canonet 28?
I just got a Canonet 28 (a fixed lens 1970s rangefinder) in great condition and I want to start using it. It currently has a PX625 battery in it, but I doubt that it has any juice left. Can I go down to the drug store and pick up a rolll of film and a 1.4v hearing aid battery to get it to work? If so, how will I know it is working? There isn't exactly an on and off switch (Sorry, I'm a teenage photographer who has literally grown up on digital. This will be my first film camera that I'll use).

Here's the manual:

You can use PX-625a batteries, but the voltage of these alkaline batteries are a little higher so you might want to increase the exposure of your shots by an f-stop or speed setting. Best bet is to run a test roll around your home to see how the pictures come out.

Take it to a camera repair where they are trained to do it. Here in my town, that is at most $25 and than includes an internal cleanup.
