P3D How are the Contaflex Lenses, experts?

[Tom Deering <tmd@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Who can compare the lenses on a Contaflex to a Realist or Kodak?  Anyone
have experience with both?  I'm wondering about the quality of the Zeiss
lenses of that era for clarity and contrast.

I'm planning out my next hacking project.  I'm thinking the Contaflex might
be a good camera, with it's all manual, no electronics exposure system.   I
hear it has a meter, but I don't know if it's in the viewfinder or not.  I
think I can link up the Compur shutters, if it's like the one I have here.
And that funky looking styling.  Goes with a red suit, for sure.

But how are those lenses?  I'd hate to get the one model of Zeiss lenses
that stink.

Cheers,

Tom
