Contax TVS Digital Point and Shoot Camera with New Battery and Battery Charger

$488.00

Here we have a beautiful Contax TVS Digital point and shoot film camera with wrist strap, new battery and new battery charger.

I have written two articles about this camera. You can read them here, and another one here.

This is the original Contax TVS Digital, the first in the famous T series to feature a Vario Sonnar Carl Zeiss 7.3-21.9mm zoom lens. It is fully functional and ready to produce another lifetime of great photographs.

Mechanically this particular camera is perfect. Everything functions exactly as it should. Build is tight and refined, without wear or damage. All levers, dials, switches, and knobs actuate exactly as they should.

The viewfinder is clean and clear. The battery compartment and SD card slot are clean and free of dirt, damage and corrosion. The lens is perfect, with no marring, balsam separation, fungus, haze, or cleaning marks. The aperture mechanisms are perfect, blades are dry, and free of damage. The focus actuation is smooth and precise.

Shutter speeds are accurate and correct, and the light meter and exposure system work exactly as they should.

Cosmetically there are minor scuffs commensurate with a camera of this age, the extent of which can be easily seen in the photos.

Made of titanium and aluminum, this camera is a luxurious and entirely capable machine perfect for street photography and travel. It offers a very small digital point and shoot form factor, while containing one of the best zoom lenses in a camera of this type.

The Carl Zeiss Sonnar is very sharp, with gorgeous color rendition and exceptional contrast. The relatively quick aperture makes it possible to shoot in any lighting conditions, and the famous T* multi-coating technology effectively eliminates all unwanted optical aberrations.

Auto-focus, a full Program mode plus available aperture-priority auto-exposure make it one of the easiest and quickest cameras around.

For many sample photos, see our review linked earlier in this description.

The camera will be carefully packaged and shipped immediately.
