Today, I'm sharing my First Impressions of the Contax G1 35mm autofocus luxury rangefinder camera.

The Contax G1 is an autofocus rangefinder camera, and I have it paired with the Carl Zeiss 28mm f2.8 lens. In this video I address my initial thoughts as to the build quality of the camera, the usability, and the image quality that the camera produces. And I discuss the autofocus issues and reliability of the Contax G1.

Let me know if you own a Contax G1, or if you have any thoughts on the camera, the images, or the video as a whole!

Stay Safe.
