Description

The Contax 159 MM (Multi Mode), introduced in 1985, was a sophisticated manual focus SLR using the Contax/Yashica (C/Y) mount. It was notable for offering three programmed AE modes, aperture/shutter priority AE, manual exposure, and advanced TTL flash metering (the first SLR with TTL flash usable in Program and Shutter Priority modes). This kit pairs it with the highly regarded Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* 28-85mm f/3.3-4 lens, a versatile and optically excellent standard zoom known for its sharpness and contrast, typical of Zeiss T* lenses.
