Primus...I cut my teeth on 'Primus' stoves, as made by Optimus. The Type 00 and Type 45 in particular.
That lantern looks great for lightweight use (especially if you've got the stove that uses the same canister), but possibly a bit limited for what I need right now. I have a young son, so my priorities are somewhat different - light output and safety win over size and weight. Ideally I'd like a Tilley X246B Stormlight. Paraffin (Kerosene) is a wonderfully safe fuel compared to gasline, and those lanterns kick out some light. They're also virtually indestructible, and very well designed. (The design has barely changed in nearly 60 years).
Unfortunately they're not available in the US. I had thought that Coleman products would be of similar quality, but it appears that I was wrong.
