Contax T2/T3?

[fengwei]

Hi All,

I'm interested in one of these two, which one do you suggest? And where to get one here in SG? And the estimated price for a good condition one w/ a 35mm lens? I walked around some camera shops but didn't see any

Your tips/suggestions will be very appreciated.

Thanks and cheers!

I think Yashica T2 / T3 with Zeiss 35mm lens are easier to find.

T2 is easily available. T3 is much harder, and much more expensive.

I find the T2 to have a better focal length, nicer to hold and has a better viewfinder. The T3 is has a good viewfinder, small but bright, and 35mm is neither here nor there kinda focal length. The T2 flash is weak, T3 is better. Pictures from the T3 POPS OUT, better than the T2 in terms of light fall off at the corners.

I would like to suggest T3, if u more keen on optic superior. T2 is better in operation, but the lens of T2 is overrated I must say. I have both T2 and Minilux before. I must say they are not at same level (of coz I mean Minilux is much better)

A good condition of T2 should go around 450-550 as I can remember. For a T3, u have to expect to pay much more, maybe 600USD.
