Buy a used G2, or a voigtlander with the future Zeiss ZM mount lens ?
Hello,
What could be the more interesting choice. 1-Buy a used G2 with planar 45/2 now (how can it cost approximately) 2-Wait for the coming out of the Zeiss Ikon and ZM mounts lenses ans buy a G2 and planar 45/2 (hoping the new hardware will lower the price of the used Contax camera and lens) 3-Wait for the coming out of the Zeiss Ikon and ZM mounts lenses and buy a bessa R2a and planar 45/2 Zeiss ZM mounts lens. By the way do you have an idea of the future planar 45/2 lens price ? All i want is to get the best optical quality a the lower price. Sure i'm always a bit anxious to buy an used hardware. Thank you for your advises R1 |

By the way do you have an idea of the future planar 45/2 lens price ? The most flexible system would be the leica M mount. You have several companies making bodies and lenses, including Konica, Cosina/Voigtlander, etc. I wouldn't hold my breath for the Zeiss Ikon, we still have a long way to go before we actually see it on the market. If you buy in to the M system you can still use the new Zeiss. |
