Contax T2

I think the 38mm of the Contax T2 lens are very very strange, not a slight wide angle like a 35mm, and not yet really a normal lens as a 40mm. Even more so as 35 and 40-42mm are maybe my most favorite focal ranges of all, followed by the 70-75mm range.
The Contax T3 for sure is smaller, maybe more beautiful, has a real super sharp 35mm lens, but the T2 is everything but flimsy and gives you a real wight into the hand. But hey, why compare, both are beautiful and can be used to make wonderful photos - as is the T1, which is like a Minox with a real rangefinder for focussing and also the same lens as the T2.
