The Zeiss lens, the Compur Efrrtter, the
automatic focusing device, the Albada
Sports finder, the shutter release lock, the
film wind stop-all these insure accuracy,
guard against forgetfulnessand save film.
Zeiss lkon cameras add to the pleasure
and satisfaction of picture making. Their
s u b s t a n t i a lc o n s t r u c t i o na n d e a s e o f o p e r a tion have won for them the highest place
among the world's fine cameras.

Tgpes:
To meet varying photographic needs and
p e r s o n a l p r e f e r e n c e s ,Z e i s s l k o n m a n u f a c tures several models in each of the four
p r i n c i p a l t y p e s o f c a m e r a : ( 1) t h e 5 5 m m
m i n i a t u r e ,( 2 ) t h e p o p u l a r r o l l f i l m c a m e r a ,
(5) the filmpack type (which also takes cut
film and glass plates), and (4) the twin-lens
reflex. All use standard rollfilm, filmpack,
cut film and plates obtainable everywhere.
Since Zeiss lkon produces ALL types of
c a m e r a s ,t h e s u g g e s t i o n s o n t h e f o l l o w i n g
pages are offered without bias. Choice between the different types depends upon
the purposes for which the camera is to be
used, and upon individual preference-subjects that should be fully discussed with
your dealer.

lent quality can be readily made to any
practical size from even parts gf sharp
miniature negatives. This also means that
now, more than ever before, your camera
and its lens should be the finestobtainable.
o CosJ:
It is true economy to purchase the latest
t y p e o f p r e c i s i o n b u i l t c a m e r a ,b e c a u s e t h e
saving in film alone will soon offset its additional cost. For example, on the followi n g p a g e s a r e d e s c r i b e d c a m e r a ' sw i t h d e v i c e s t h a t a u t o m a t i c al l y p r e v e n t t h e l o s s
of TWO pictures through accidental double
that eliminate out-of-focus
exposure
misses-that make it impossible to lose an
exposure by accidentally winding the film
too far-and on Contax lll and Contaflex
a meter accurately measureslight intensity
and indicates the correct exposure.
This saving in operating expense, combined with the greater convenience, accuracy and satisfaction of picture making,
goes on through years, for Zeiss lkon came r a s ,w i t h o r d i n a r y c a r e , w i l l l a s t a l i f e . - t i m e .
