You know, there is a long tradition of letting the first responder, Daniel in this case, field test a newly acquired "bragging rights" camera. That's just so you don't get stuck with a pig-in-a-poke situation, and are left-holding-the-Contax:-)

Last night we were visiting my mother-in-law and she told me showing a 35mm camera :"Carlos, I recalled I had in the closet this camera that belonged to one of my brothers , do you like it?", I took the camera, it was a beauty, I replied: "Yes, I like it", she said "and then it's for you". The camera is a Contax II rangefinder with a Carl Zeiss Jena Sonnar lens 1,5/50, lens (uncoated, it has a bit of haze, no fungus) and camera need a deep CLA, they have very good shape except for a few details, according the lens serial number it would be from about 1937, it looks like a camera from the '70s however smaller than those monsters, it has metal focal plane shutter and self-timer, I hope to use this camera, you feel it very comfortable in your hands.If Marc is still interested about them, the camera serial number is B33268 and the lens CZJ 2188792.-Carlos______________________________________________________________________ ______________¡Buscá desde tu celular!
