Contax G1 With Carl Zeiss 45mm T* 35mm Rangefinder autofocus camera. The Contax G1 is one of the most phenomenal rangefinders for 35mm ever made. And to find one with autofocus system like in G1 and G2 is astounding.
The overall image quality is unmatched in 35mm cameras and the Carl Zeiss lens have become quite desirable.
Drew Chambers of Photofile says
"G-mount Planar 45mm is one of the best lenses ever made for 35mm photography," says Drew Chambers of Photofile. "It is on par with any lens made by Leica in terms of build and image quality. The lens uses what Contax called a “spigot” mount, similar to Canon’s breech-lock FD mount."
All the modes you would expect a higher end camera you have, the design is sleek, lightweight and thing. The viewfinder large and bright and an easy to use focusing system, lock, and metering lock.
I suggest reading Drew Chambers review to find out more.
The G series is truly a class of its own. I can not recommend this or the G2 enough.
