My first Contax was the 139Q. I loved it and especially the dedicated flash stystem. I was very sad when it died. I got some Yashia to replace it.

One day I got a deal on a 167MT out of Canada. I really like that camera! All the time I have lusted for Contax lenses, but never been able to afford one other than two 50mm f/1..4 lenses at $20 apiece. I envy you your 28mm there. Do you have others?

Not a big deal as I have a good stable of Fujinon lenses and an ST901 if I need them. But still, Contax glass is so good too.

My other Contax lens is Planar 50/1.7. I originally tried to get the Planar 50/1.4 but the price was high at that time. So I comprised to get 50/1.7. It's said the IQ of 50/1.7 is better than 50/1.4. Never try 50/1.4 and hopefully it is.
