Someone asked me to post my pictures of my Contaflex so here is a start.

Zeiss Contaflex set with the 35mm,85mm,110mm,50mm f2.8 and the 1:1 50mm macro. Contapol filter, (2) interchanging film backs ((so you can change 35mm roll film in mid roll)) Various filters etc...

Very nice set! Are you still actively using it or simply for collection purposes?

Thank you. I have a few extra pieces not in the photos also, Plus a few more bodies. I was lucky to say the least that i found not only a super that works but also is still running at spec with all speeds. I have 2 more on the long term repair list with one of the last known Zeiss trained repair men. I think i am still over 2 years out and waiting but no one will touch the old super versions with the wheel.
Sorry... tangent, To answer your question i still shoot with this set. I love it!! took 3 years to put together a working set.

That's a very nice and seemingly complete collection there.

Here's a price guide if you haven't priced them as yet?
