Hi All,
I have a Contax 159 (1/4000 with 1/250 sync) with a Zeiss Planar 50 1.4 (AEJ) plus a Mutar I 2x.
This is a relatively small setup that gives an excellent 50/100 mm setup.
The mutar I results in an excellent 100 mm lens (the mtf of this setup can be found at zeiss.com).
Camera is in good condition, the front plastic cover was replaced with leatherette, as it had discoloured. It has been replaced by a dark black cover.
The lens is clean mechanically and optically, and the mutar is as well.
This is (with the 139, 159 and S2) one of the few Contax cameras that do not have a motor built in (which makes it nice and compact).
I have been using the camera, and the film has been properly exposed (I am trimming down my camera collection, after all there are only so many cameras one can use....
Prices on ebay are:
camera: 150
planar 50: 200
mutar 1 2X: (cheapest is 65), normally around 150-200
I would like to get 370 euros for it, shipping and fees are for the buyer.
