Go Back   Rangefinderforum.com > 35mm Film Range Finders > Zeiss Contax

Zeiss Contax Forum for the classic Zeiss Contax I, II, III, IIa, IIIa , G series, and if you want to push it, the nice Contax point and shoots. Some spill over from the Kievs, the Soviet copy of the Contax II/III can also be expected. Plus the ONLY production camera ever made in classic Zeiss Contax Rangefinder mount WITH TTL metering ... the Voigtlander Bessa R2C.

the finder shoe gives a different placement on the top of the camera, the contax version foot is about 5mm longer then the nikon version.

I never know that. Looking at the type 2 i've been using on my Contax IIa it is cleraly not a Contax version: not as long, no cross bar and no notch for the shoe stop pin. Does it make any difference in use?
