    One of a kind

    Contax G2 was one of many standout designs of the late, lamented Contax brand from Kyocera, sporting technology no other rangefinder has ever equalled. Autofocus. Parallax which automatically adjusts in the vf depending on the focusing distance. The only zoom lenses ever created for rangefinders. Lens quality equal to pretty much anything Leica ever made, with the possible exception of a few of Leica's lenses which cost well north of $5,000. Easy to use, affordable these days, and simply a rangefinder which is in many ways srill unequalled in the photographic world, the Contax G2. After using one, I bought another.

    Broken camera

    Unfortunately I was relying on this camera for a very important project for work and I was unable to use it because the shutter was broken. It takes a week to get fixed. On top of this the repairs were 100 EURO and I also had to pay 200 EURO tax because the article was labeled incorrectly. I'm very upset with this result. I wish to kindly receive compensation.

  • Very happy with Contax G2 condition!

    Contax G2 body in great condition. As noted in the description, this is a used camera and has signs of wear on the outside. However, I found the inside to be like-new and in perfect condition for shooting. Many thanks to the seller--highly recommend!

  • one of the best

    Lens are great, some of the best 35mm ever made (not the zoom) just be sure camera works before buying as the shutters can die rather early.

  • G2

    I have been collecting cameras for a few years now. In a matter of a week this has become my favorite among Leica, Mamiya and Canon. It’s so fun to shoot with and the quality is exceptional.
