The camera and lens are cosmetically like new, functionally perfect, and ready to produce another lifetime of fantastic photos.
The film compartment, battery compartment, viewfinder, pentaprism, and mirror box are clean and free of damage. All knobs, dials, levers, and mechanisms actuate as they should. The autofocus and metering systems work perfectly, as do all other functions.
The lens is in similarly pristine condition. The glass elements are free of scratches, fungus, haze and balsam separation. The aperture blades are snappy and free of oil. The focus actuation is smooth and precise, and the zoom function works as it should. The mount and filter threads are clean and free of marring.
The Contax NX is one of the last professional 35mm film cameras brought to market by any Japanese camera maker, and as such, it is one of the best 35mm film SLRs ever made. It features Contax's highest rated autofocus system ever found in a Contax film camera, with a five-point phase detection autofocus system.
The camera is a true professional machine with near limitless shooting options, including the full suite of PASM shooting modes, multiple focus modes, an extremely versatile shutter capable of speeds as fast as 1/4000th of a second, a full range of professional-grade accessories including advanced TTL flash, and much more.
The included lens is an advanced and capable zoom lens from Zeiss, featuring that company's unbeatable T* optical coatings. It is an incredible lens. The 28-80mm focal length zoom offers the ability to shoot any type of standard photography, from wide angle landscapes to tight portraits. It also allows for macro shooting, with an impressive macro mode that our shop's owner has used personally to shoot incredible slide film photos of tiny snails and other minuscule creatures.
This is simply an incredible professional film camera that's quite literally capable of any type of photography.
It will be carefully packaged and shipped immediately.
