Near Mint CONTAX N1 35mm SLR AF Film Camera Body Black Works

Description: CONTAX N1 film camera body with cap Up for sale is my CONTAX N1. The camera is in near mint condition. The exterior is very clean with only a few small scuffs and scratches from normal use. The mount, contacts, battery compartment, film transport, etc. are all very clean and look hardly used. The viewfinder is clean and clear and is bright. It is super easy to use and all functions of the camera operate flawlessly. The camera is no lightweight, but it is very well-balanced especially when paired with the VS 24-85mm. That particular combo makes an outstanding everyday carry combo. In regards to size, you can put this in the same class as the Sony a900, Canon EOS 3, and similar pro-spec'd SLRs. It's functionality is unsurpassed. The focus is fast and easy. The focus points essentially line up with the Rule of Thirds plus the main center focus. My preferred use - which is similar to how I use the AX - is to use the back focus button as a one-shot AF which then locks focus if you'd like to recompose. Although I've only used for two rolls, I'll be happy to answer any questions you have regarding the camera. I'm unfortunately in need of selling off some of my gear and the N1 and two associated zooms are some of the items to go. I'd prefer they find a good home with a fellow film photography junkie.
