28.July : Happy „Birthday“ Contax

[veraikon]

76 years ago at the 28th July 1932 the first Contax (I) from Zeiss Ikon Dresden was presented to the public. From 1932 with Contax I till Contax ND in 2005 various Contax-RFs, MFs, and SLRs from Zeiss Ikon Dresden, Zeiss Ikon Stuttgart, VEB Zeiss Ikon Dresden and Kyocera were produced.


For tomorrow I propose just to celebrate this “birthday” simply shooting photos with a Contax.

Gutes Licht ! and die Legende lebt ! 😉
