I received my repaired Contax II and Sonnar F2 collapsible from Henry Scherer in January (2014) and these are from the first roll.

When I get my IIIc back from 'hospital' and put on the Sonnar F1.5 LTM it's going to be a tough choice.

Got around to running a roll of Rollei Retro 80S film through my Contax II with the 85mm f/2 Sonnar. Haven't found a good viewfinder for it so some of the compositions were skewed.. 🙁

Morning Lessons Oundle School 2014 Contax ll by knjy, on Flickr

Two shots taken with my F2.0 50mm uncoated Sonnar fitted to a restored Contax ll and demonstrate good exposure consistency across the middle speeds. I enjoyed taking this with me for a short visit to Oundle and Cromer at the weekend.

While the Contax ll is not a Leica M6 it is an infinitely better camera to use than the Leica 11 111 series. Before the Leicaphiles kick off, I fully recognise that the M3 changed the game completely and i have owned a Leica ll, two M2's, an R3 and now an M6 - the latter you would have to wrench from my hands.

Hi all. This is my first post in RFF. Thank you all for sharing such invaluable info, it has been very useful.
Here is my little contribution to this Thread.

Not from a rangefinder camera (digital 5DmkII), but old enough Zeiss lenses.

Sonnar 50/1.5 from 1933, on the A7R with Helicoid adapter.

Just want to resurrect an old thread so I can see more pre-war Zeiss Shots! Anybody have more to add?

Here's one from My ICA Polyscop with Zeiss Tessars built in 1925 (stereocamera with sequentially numbered 90mm lenses)

1938 Zeiss 5cm 1.5 with Olympus M 4/3 E-P2. A mix of old and new.

With pictures that lovely Raid, I am sure it is all right. Where is the coastal picture from?

 

[raid]

Thanks. The three photos were taken this summer in Camogli, Italy. It is located close to Portofino and to Genova. I expected the special light and colors there, so I took along the Sonnar.

I use the 5cm 1.5 mainly for portraits, but it is also great for contrasty scenes that require a lower contrast lens to manage handling it all.

I just picked up a contax I with broken shutter for cheap, that has a 1934 Jena Sonnar 50 1.5 on it. I can't wait to put it on my M2 with the Amedeo adaptor. I love uncoated lenses. Curious how it will perform against my Cron Rigid and Collapsible Cron. Maybe I will do a real world comparison test.

Nikon S2, Sonnar 50mm f/1.5 uncoated nickel, 400-2TMY.

My copy is extremely sharp, but vignettes horribly.

Great images, Erik.
