For sale is a 1953 ZEISS IKON Contina II with a ZEISS Opton 45mm F2.8 lens. Among these, the Tessar lens version is rare and a highly sought-after classic camera. The Contina II is a small folding camera, and its elegant design has earned it the nickname "Countess." "Camera Condition" The camera shows signs of wear and tear from age and use. Regarding the optics, there are some dust particles and minor cleaning marks that could not be removed, including on the lens. There is very slight clouding, but please refer to the photos for your assessment. It is a clean example for its age, but please consider it a user camera. "Important Notes" * Use a dummy film to test the shutter. It is possible to operate without film, but not recommended for beginners. * When setting the shutter speed to 1/500 second, set the shutter dial to 1/500 second *before* cocking the shutter charge lever. Due to the use of an accelerator spring to ensure high speeds, the charge will be extremely heavy. * To open the front panel, press down on the top knob and pull it out. * To close the front panel, push the trapezoidal plates on either side. * The toothed screw on the bottom is a hidden tripod socket screw. * To advance the film, rotate the dial on the lower left plate in the "A" direction. * The center knob is the rewind knob. Press it and rotate the rewind dial on the right in the "R" direction to rewind the film. * When loading film, make sure that the two gears in the center bottom are securely engaged with the perforations. Advance the film 2-3 frames and set the counter to 1. * The left viewfinder is for focusing. The split-image focusing is clear and without issue. The center viewfinder is for framing. * The dial on the top cover on the left is a separate rangefinder. It is not coupled, so set the distance separately. * X-sync has been confirmed. * There are many things to be careful about when operating the Contina II. We recommend checking operation on YouTube or similar resources before using the camera. Avoid forcing any operations.
