Contax/Kiev III on BBC Springwatch
« on: June 04, 2013, 11:42:01 PM »
I couldn't help noticing when Michaela Strachan held up the BBC Summer of Wildlife handbook,that it had a Contax/Kiev III on the cover. Now what would be good if someone won the photo competition with a shot taken on the above mentioned camera. Perhaps they should have a special category for images shot on old rangefinders. I'm barking mad aren't I ????

I think it's a 4a.

Between the flash sync and the self-timer lever, definitely a 4A.
