Edwin Molenaar

The Contax D succeeded the Contax S that was introduced in 1949. That was the first SLR with penta prism and 42mm lens mount, which was to become the standard for SLR cameras during a long period of time. The design of the Contax S goes back to before WWII to the thirties. The offered Contax D carries the Zeiss Ikon logo and dates from around 1953 and comes from the old East German Zeiss factory, that continued by the name Pentacon after 1949. The exterior of the body looks used, but without bump damage, dents or little dents. The technology is good. Shutter, self-timer and mirror mechanism function. The camera has a nice Carl Zeiss Jena Biotar 58mm f2 no. 3534255 with pre-set diaphragm. Its mount is good. The lens does not have any scratches, is clear and without internal damage. Furthermore the set includes a well-running Zeiss Ikon Ikophot selenium meter in original bag and "gold" chain. The diffuser glass is also present. Nice camera with interesting history.

Used condition and technically good
