This kit includes the following:A silver Contax G2 autofocus rangefinder camera body. (I also have other items for sale)Offered here is one of the truly classic cameras of photography's history: A silver Contax G2 auto-focus rangefinder kit in near-mint condition. Used but good condition Contax G2 Rangefinder 45mm f2 , from a Smoke free home. Contax G2 with a 45mm f2 lens & 28mm f2.8 lens there is no autofocus capability when using the adapter.
The original Contax-embossed leather neck / shoulder strap for the camera. A matching silver-finished Zeiss UV filter for the 45mm lens. A matching silver-finished Zeiss hood for the 90mm lens. All original caps for each lens and the original cap for the camera body. A Zeiss Planar 45mm F2 T* lens. A Zeiss Sonnar 90mm F2.8 T* lens.
But I am told that this is simply bits of original manufacturing lubricant common, and harmless, for these lenses. The lenses show traces of a blue residue in areas around the mounts. This kit is in beautiful condition, free of scratches and dents. Cosmetically, the images speak for themselves.
The G2 represented a unique high-point for rangefinder-style photography. (Note: The CR2 batteries are not included.)It makes me a little sad to part with this beautiful camera kit. All seemed fine as ever although I did not actually expose any film. But I have powered the camera up recently to check the autofocus, the shutter, and meter operation. The leather strap is even in clean condition with little sign of use.It has been several years since I have run film through this camera. You can also see that the film compartment is pristine, with clean rollers and seals in excellent condition.
