Contax I (C) - Camera

Manual focus Contax/Kiev mount 35mm rangefinder camera released by Zeiss Ikon in 1932. This was Zeiss's first attempt at a 35mm camera after the success of the Leica A. Many different iterations were made due to reliability issues and recalls. The shutter mechanism is especially (and notoriously) unreliable over time. The C model introduced slow shutter speeds. Brass body available in black.
