CONTAX RTS III.

This is a prestigious camera from the Contax range. It uses Carl Zeiss T* manual-focus lenses, which are a guarantee of outstanding quality. It is exceptionally well built, made of metal, and offers quality that is out of the ordinary.

Type: 35mm SLR with focal-plane shutter.

Mount: Contax AE/MM

Shutter speeds: Auto: 32–1/8000 sec., Manual: 4–1/8000 sec., Bulb, X: 1/250

Self-timer: Electronic, 10 sec. or 2 sec. Can be canceled.

Exposure control: Aperture-priority AE, shutter-priority AE, Manual.

Metering system: TTL full-aperture, center-weighted metering, TTL full-aperture spot metering... and much more...

The camera remains in very good condition, with normal signs of use; the viewfinder is clean and bright.
The liquid in the viewfinder window is leaking, and the display is no longer visible, but this does not prevent normal use.
The system works well and responds to everything.

Camera from my collection, which I am currently reorganizing.
