Is there a market for Contax cameras?
Yes! 35 or medium format? SLR or rangefinder? What model?

I believe mine is a G2. I have it stored away and will have to get it out to be sure.

Or perhaps it is an RTS. I seem to remember a area below the body for a motor or batteries. I will get a chance to look this weekend.

The difference should br obvious. Thr G2 is a rangefinder camera; the RTS is an SLR.

Mine is definitely an SLR, I just need to get it from storage.
Thank you for the followup.
When I get it out I will take some picts of it and post them.

I have 4 Contax bodies and three Zeiss lenses for them. Tell me what model you have and maybe I can help.

Contax's version of a consumer camera. An excellent piece of equipment that uses the best Zeiss lenses. Sells on E-Bay from $120 up.

This is one of the earliest cameras with an integral motor drive. If you have any Zeiss lenses for it, and want to sell them, please let me know as I am a long time Contax user.

If it's a 50mm, I already have one; if it's another focal length, please me know. Not interested in the Tokina.

Not even sure I plan to sell, just inquiring about it.
But thanks.
