The 50ino is still spinning ...
Without the digital it had to be a great experience ....

At that time the focal length of 50mm was the central objective of any photographic equipment and was usually flanked by 28 and 135. Generally, we preferred to photograph with fixed lenses because the zoom were far from today's performance. The SLR cameras were always sold with 50mm and, for this reason, these lenses were always of good quality because they were in some way the visiting card of the various brands and had a well tested and relatively simple optical scheme (the photo Zeiss has 7 elements in 6 groups).
The analogue and digital experience are simply different and historically reflect different phases of technological development, and this applies to every productive sector.
The benefits of progress, if well used, make life easier, even in the photographic field.
Best wishes, Vittorio.

I use my "old ladies" again, strictly in black and white and not as often as I would like, too uncomfortable, but just not to forget.
I know, I'm a romantic romance ...

Used properly, it still works perfectly, but is forced to rest; in the meantime I started to give life to his Zeiss objectives ... The times of the best youth are now a distant memory, dear Paul.
Thank you for the kind and welcome comments.

You are right to use them and you are right to be an incurable romantic, Carlo. Without dreams and passions, life goes out ...

The famous and innovative Contax RTS that made so much talk about the batteries. Nice car with the Zeiss which is fantastic. Lucky to have it will surely give you great shots. Compliments

The problem related to the batteries has affected the first version, the RTS II is not afflicted and can shoot without batteries in both B and 1/60. In many years I have never had any problem about it. It is the confirmation that the machines, of any kind, just entered the market sometimes have defects of youth.
This car jewel, with its Zeiss lenses, has given me the most beautiful emotions.
Thank you very much, Fernanda.

Yes, it was the first version.

The high power consumption in the first version (RTS) was due to the shutter and electromagnetic shutter as well as the use of LEDs in the viewfinder.
The Contax RTS is from 1974 while the RTS II is from 1982; the latter has filled the gaps of the previous version.

One of the jewels of the past, modern cars do not give me the same emotions ...... maybe because I was young? :-D :-D

This machine with its Zeiss lenses gave me a lot of satisfaction and the most beautiful emotions, however
aware that over the years there has been and obviously continues to be a technological development in the digital field that greatly facilitates the photographer in his work. It is evolution.
Thank you very much for the beautiful and welcome comment, 360.
