Used item, no tax.

Certified: Tested & inspected with special tools and machinery, found to be working correctly (or unused in original packaging). Any flaws present will be noted and will not affect typical use.

This is a "gray label" version and has not received the "green label" upgrade. It will not work with all G mount lenses. There's a bit of leakage on the top LCD and a bit of haze in the viewfinder. It works well!

Details: Contax G1

Autofocus G-mount 35mm hybrid rangefinder camera released by Contax in 1994. The camera uses a rangefinder-esque passive autofocus system. The viewfinder automatically crops based on which lens is attached. Earlier models, known as "Gray Label" G1s, are incompatible with certain lenses (21mm f2.8 & 35mm f2) introduced during the lifespan of the Contax G2. Later models, known as "Green Label" cameras, have been upgraded to work with all G mount lenses. Titanium body available in champagne finish.
