Contax Tix, Kodak Advantix B&W 400
Nikon LS-40, Lightroom​

Your comments always appreciated.

I enjoyed 'rediscovering' this little camera quite a lot. I may make a specific project of using it for a whole series of works.

Well Done Godfrey
Love Your Set.....its a Little Gem the T

I got the other Big Brother recently the G1 with the 45 Planar, the 21 Biogon, & the 90 sonnar....Beautiful glass

while I was purchasing the 90mm
I met an elderly fellow .... a photographer coming out with a B&W photography book called 'Flags'
coming out this Summer by Penguin....
he raved about the Contax Tix which he had on his belt buckle and said he blows up photos from thi litle P&S / 16 x20 & their astounding in Detail
That Sonnar 2.8 Rocks !

He shoots mostly with an M3 & Contax Tix

Cheers - H

Thanks H!

I had a Contax G2 kit for a while ... Liked working with the Leica M kit more, but the Zeiss lenses were superb.

The Tix is just a superb piece tho. I did three trips to Europe and carried only it ... got some wonderful photos from it. It was 'lost' in a drawer since 2002, but found again.

... I have a freezer full of film for it. ;-)
