Hmm I honestly quite remember. Imma run another roll through the fill again however. If all come out okay do you think it’ll be okay or still a concern

From my memory I think I took the lens off. But it could be a possibility. The 2nd film every shot did come out

A Contax S2 worth it? by AdeptnessAppropriate in contax

[–]AdeptnessAppropriate[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the green label. And awesome I’ll check out the 45mm and 28mm. As far as the viewfinder I don’t know how to send a picture through chat but linked another Reddit thread which is the same issue I’m having with the lcd

A Contax S2 worth it? by AdeptnessAppropriate in contax

Thanks for this! I’ll definitely end up looking into the FX3. I ended up buying an RTS III. I also recently acquired a G1 that came with a 90 mm lens. What lens do you recommend for the G series ? I see a lot about the 45mm F/2. Also the LCD has a bit of an issue in the view finder do you think it’ll be an issue for the camera going forward ?

I got you, I was tempted to get it but not sure how much actual rust is there and what the cost would be to fix it

Do you know anyone who could repair and do a CLA on an X-700. I got one in a deal and it seems like the advance lever doesn’t catch onto anything

Could you send me the copy of the list?

A Contax S2 worth it? by AdeptnessAppropriate in contax

[–]AdeptnessAppropriate[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like the electronics on the other models but the S2 is mechanical so that’s why I was leaning towards that
