#Contax 645 lenses manual
These lenses were both autofocus and manual focus, to switch modes all the user had to twist the focus ring, no switches. Leveraging their position to manufacture Zeiss lenses they created a lineup of nine lenses, from a 35mm f/3.5 Distagon to a 350mm f/4 Tele-Apotessar and a 45-90mm f/4.5 Vario-Sonnar. But Kyocera didn’t just want to make another 645 SLR. First released on the 20th of February 1999 the Contax 645 AF answered that question. Both Mamiya and Pentax had released autofocus versions of their 645 format SLRs, and now Kyocera wanted to join those ranks. But their customer base wanted something else they wanted a medium format system. Good optics through licensed Carl Zeiss optics that stood up to their German cousins. And the photographers who used them loved them. Kyocera was making good use of the Yashica and Contax brands and produced a lot of amazing cameras through the 1990s, but these were all 35mm cameras. Special thanks to Alan Gaunt for loaning this beautiful camera out for review! Alan’s Contax 645 AF with AE prisim, motordrive, and 45mm Distagon lens. The Contax 645 is a fantastic camera, but sadly it suffered the fate of being far too late in the game and would have done far better if Kyocera had released a digital back for the camera and got into the MF digital format first. I had never even known a person who also owned one, so when I was offered to use one for review, I jumped at the chance.
