PHONE: CITY 1124 ^GONTAX^ THE PEAK OF PERFECTION IN MODERN PRECISION MINIATURE CAMERAS . . . The Contax is brimful of new ideas and modern improvements. The FOCAL-PLANE SHUTTER is especially interesting on account of its unique construction. The curtains are made entirely of metal, but at the same time they are as pliable as rubber-coated cloth, and absolutely light-tight and permanent — conditions which cannot*always be guaranteed even with the best rubber-coated cloth. The Contax metal focal-plane shutter gives exposures up to 1/1, 000th second, and is the only shutter in its size giving this extremely high speed. Moreover, everything is controlled by one handy setting knob in front of the camera, and speeds can be altered both before and after the camera is set. It is absolutely proof against differences in temper¬ ature, and can be used with equal satisfaction in either hot, moist, or very cold climates. Summed up, the . Contax metal focal plane shutter is, like everything carrying the Zeiss Ikon trade mark, per¬ fectly reliable. The unique construction of the shutter is only one of many advantages possessed by the Contax. Further particulars will be found in the special Contax brochure, which will be forwarded free on application. The Contax takes 36 exposures, each 36x24 mm. Any perforated cine film can be used, but we specially recommend our daylight-loading Contax spools, Zeiss Ikon ortho ultra-rapid film, as these spools can be loaded with the same ease as the usual roll film.
