CONTAX RTS Black Film SLR Camera

Contax RTS (First Generation)

A camera that allows the use of Carl Zeiss lenses, which were said to be able to capture even the gradations of snow, and which I admired.
Sophisticated internal viewfinder display.
A "grid matte" focusing screen is implemented.

The Contax RTS (Real Time System) is a high-performance, high-end single-lens reflex camera released in 1975 by Yashica (at the time). It features a refined form designed by Porsche Design. It can be fitted with Carl Zeiss lenses and features a short-stroke shutter called "feather touch" and aperture-priority AE, representing a design ahead of its time.

[Specifications]
* Mount: Yashica/Contax mount (C/Y)
* Shutter: Electronic cloth focal plane, 16 seconds to 1/2000 second

[Condition]
* The shutter is working normally, as far as I can tell.

Thank you for looking.
