Congratulations Carlos!
As a teenager, I always wanted a Contax (wanted the rangefinder in the
viewfinder window). As an adult I've gathered a few Kievs and the ones
from the fifties and sixties are really quite nice. Maybe the others
are too, but I've kept to the earlyish timeframe.
That "ca-chunk" of a shutter or a little whisper at higher speeds is nice.
Best,
Daniel
