Chris, many of the characteristics you cited seem to apply in spite of pre
war vs. post war time span. I think your hints we be of great help in
getting acquainted with the camera.

Also thanks to Chris Brown who gave a wealth of information on both the
benefits and quirks of the II. By Chris's description it seems he may have
the pre-WWII whereas I have the post war Ia. I presume this follows the
Contax designations. The film advance points were very helpful.
Mine is definitely pre-war - AIUI the lever focus is the giveaway. They only
did that for a few years in the mid 30s. Shame really, because it seems to
work really well. YMMV, I guess.
Glad it was of some use anyway, even if it wasn't quite the same model. --- Rollei List
