I feel the Contax Tvs models are great value for money – almost a bargain, if any Contax could be considered as one! My hunch is that the Tvs range might be the next big thing.Ĭonsider this: Mario Testino does photoshoots for Vogue using a Contax Tvs III. Being able to set fast focusing is a huge benefit, in my view. of the manual explains how to set custom functions. I like to leave the film leader out, and set fast focusing, so I change “CF1” to 1 and “CF2” to 1.
The Tvs III offers custom functions like the T3. I suspect some people will find it a bit gimmicky. The drawbridge opens down to form the bridge across the moat. The Tvs III has a novel ‘drawbridge’ door over the lens. The Tvs III has a motorised zoom operated by two tiny buttons. The Tvs I and II have manual zoom rings, which I find really nice to use. The Tvs III gained a slightly sharper 30-60 zoom (f/3.7-6.7). There were two other Tvs models before the Tvs III. But no, that 35mm lens would be hopeless for headshots in the studio. Which camera should I take? I immediately thought of the lovely little Contax T3. One day, I wanted to do some street photography on the way to a studio fashion photoshoot.
Zeiss seems to have perfected the 2x zoom, which is not exactly a superzoom. Perhaps the Contax zoom lens achieves such impressive sharpness because the zoom range is so limited. As it turned out, I was quite amazed by the results: I found the Contax Tvs III to be as sharp as the premium prime-lens compacts. I really enjoyed using the Tvs III, so I hoped the sharpness would turn out well. It is far quicker than the cheaper zooms such as the Olympus Mju Zooms. Is that true?Īs soon as I started to use the Contax Tvs III, I noticed that it worked well. It’s also much cheaper, so the Tvs III should also be hot property, right? I think people fear it might be less sharp. The Contax Tvs III is basically a T2 with a zoom lens. The Contax T2 is hot property, the compact de jour, if you will. Parts one and two, which covered the Contax T2 and T3 are already up for you to check out, so let’s crack on with my quick review of their zoom lens sibling, the Contax Tvs III.
