| Zeiss Contax Forum for the classic Zeiss Contax I, II, III, IIa, IIIa , G series, and if you want to push it, the nice Contax point and shoots. Some spill over from the Kievs, the Soviet copy of the Contax II/III can also be expected. Plus the ONLY production camera ever made in classic Zeiss Contax Rangefinder mount WITH TTL metering ... the Voigtlander Bessa R2C. |

Black Hoods and Caps
For those of you with the black G lenses, where, if anywhere, have you been able to find the GG 1,2,3 hoods and the GK-54 caps in black?

It's odd that B&H has the GG-1 & GG-3 hoods in black, but no mention of the black GG-2 for the standard 45/2 lens. Also no mention of the GK-54 caps.

Keep an eye on e-Bay, they come up every once in a while. Since, I believe, that the original Black Kit was sold with the hoods and caps (for the hoods) you'll eventually see them if you are missing yours- heck, they might even be from the same kit.

Ooof! I thought this was a call for all former Spanish Inquisition employees... 
Funny... when I read the message I realized how lucky I am. My Contax gear is silver, but it still doesn't make lens caps or hoods any cheaper. |
