I first put a film in the Contaflex back in 2020, having just repaired the faulty shutter and cleaning the lens. The plan was to rattle off some shots and then make this video, but somehow that just didn't happen.....until I was reminded about finishing the film as I watched a video by David Flower (link down below) where he ran a roll through his Praktica. So now I've got round to finishing the film, we can finally take a look at the shots, along with a good look at the rather fantastic Contaflex Super B.
The Contaflex cameras were made in Germany by Zeiss in the 50s and 60s - my Super B dates from around 1962.
Film used in the Contaflex: Ilford FP4 125 ISO
