Z for Zeiss Ikon Contaflex Super B Contaflex Super B by hanszeiss, on Flickr By the way, the best Contaflex to have is the Contaflex S which sports the recomputed Tessar. This Super B is still functional, its Se-cel functions correctly.

The leica Z2X is a wonderful camera that today can be had for very little. I have had mine since they were newly introduced and it has functioned flawlessly ever since. An excellent lens and useful basic programs make it a great P&S to keep in the car or in the pocket ready to use anytime. The photo of mine was taken years ago with my old Toshiba P&S so the quality isn't great. David Tomei

No. 3 A Autographic Kodak 1916 First camera with coupled rangefinder. It was very heavy and difficult to use but it worked and was accurate. PHOTOBUCKET, THE TRUSTED GUARDIAN OF OUR PICTURES, IS EITHER STEALING OR DESTROY ING THEM. COME ON FELLOW TCC'S. DON'T JUST SIT THERE SILENTLY LIKE A WRAPPED MUMMY. DO SOMETHING. REVOLT ! THEY ARE IN THE PROCESS OF DESTOYING THE CAMERA COLLECTOR ! Read more: cameracollector.proboards.com/conversation/6632#ixzz5ABSslG00

When my acro R arrived, it was very corroded and neither shutter nor rangefinder worked. After some work it is back to life. There are some interesting stories on the internet. David

The Clarus is, in my opinion, one of the most beautiful cameras. However, the internals were very poorly made, looking as if they had been machined with a chainsaw. They were prone to early failure and few are reliably functioning today. This one has the uncommon 101mm lens which is pristine. A wide angle lens was available which is even more uncommon. Due to the unique screw mount of the Clarus, these lenses cannot be used on any other body.

Dacora Digna - a very cheaply made 120 camera.
