I sent the Contax to Mark Hansen. He told me it has sand inside and he is not sure if he can get it all out, and recommended I put it on the shelf. This is hard to swallow as I have $150 purchase price plus another $80 for his fee into it already. Henry has an 8 year waiting list. I hate to put this camera on the shelf so I may open it to at least see what he is talking about.

Do a lot of research. Get the proper tools. Be patient and prepared to do the work over a long period of time. Document every step of the way.

OR

Sell it as a semi-functioning parts camera and try to recoup some of your investment.

OR

If the camera functions well enough to be usable, just shoot with it.
