Nettax 35mm en - r-kobus.eu

PL

Nettax (35 mm) was produced in factories Zeiss Ikon in the years 1936 to 1938. The Rangefinder camera was to a cheaper alternative to the Contax II. Actually it should be called Super Nettel III, because he was the successor of models and Super Super Nettel Nettel II, but before the premiere Nettax name was choosen. He received a Zeiss code 538/24.
Nettax camera is a rigid structure. Shutter operates in the range from 1/5s to 1 / 1000 seconds (and B), as well as Super Nettel, it is a metal shutter with vertical movement as the ContaxI and Contax II. Rangefinder with short base is separated from the viewfinder window. Interesting design rangefinder makes interchangeable lenses with bayonet also have a specific design. The lens is built part of the optical rangefinder. Therefore, very limited selection of lenses:
• Carl Zeiss Jena Tessar 5cm f/3.5 – standard lens;
• Carl Zeiss Jena Tessar f/2.8 5 cm, – standard lens;
• Carl Zeiss Jena Triotar 10.5 cm f/5.6 – Telephoto.
Using an adapter bracket allows for mounting Zeiss Tessar Contax 2.8cm f / 8 on Nettax, but then the lens is not coupled with the rangefinder.
Nettax was not a huge financial success and now is rather rare. Especially rare are telephoto lenses, and today the price is high.
