HU : "Black Contax-II"

[darkkavenger]

Yep I'm being ironical... I wish I could sell a Kiev-4A for so much ...


nice rip-off on hellbay : http://cgi.ebay.com/Carl-Zeiss-Cont...8QQihZ017QQcategoryZ15234QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

be sure to read the add-up below the images. This is not a Contax-II but a IIa with a Zeiss-Opton sonnar.... get it ? 😉

They built a CZ Sonnar front ring on it too..

They should just offer to do the paint job, in the current prices ($700 USD for a Leica M), they certainly get more $ this way, more honest too...

Indeed faked front lens, that's clearly a J8M(star-shaped fstop ring)

Here's another one for $89 BIN:

BTW, I saw that Honu Hugger from RFF has two Contax II bodies listed:

Check out his other listings. He's selling some Alpa cameras, too.

R.J., honu-hugger's listing makes me wish I had some cash!

or a lot of cash... 🙂

I couldn't resist on bidding...

I bought one of these from the /original/ seller for about £50 (I wanted a black Kiev) and was delighted to receive the finest example of a Kiev I have ever held, in fact I sold by other two bodies and kept it instead. Added bonus was the Kiev II back supplied.

Lens was particularly good, completely new and unused 8M. Pity someone can't spell 'cm'....

I especially like the "f=5sm" focal length markings.

"please only bid if you understand this "

Well, that's the best disclaimer i've ever read.
The text to understand is completely chaotic and I have no clue what it wants to say, except this last line.

 

[Pherdinand]

Honu is selling his collection???
wow
never believed he'd do that. Especiually the Alpa's, he was very proud of them.

 

[Pherdinand]

William! Are you still looking for a 50/3.5 tessar?🙂
honu is selling one!http://cgi.ebay.com/Contax-50mm-f-3...8QQihZ017QQcategoryZ15234QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Honu's just selling off some of his surplus I believe.
