The magnificent Contax G2. While admittedly flawed, it is nevertheless a superbly built and sublimely beautiful camera. Plagued by tricky and noisy auto-focus (that's right, an auto focusing rangefinder), it supports what is perhaps the best, well-rounded lens lineup ever produced. This includes my all time favorite lens; the Biogon 21mm f/2.8. Shown here with (in addition to the 21) the Sonnar 90mm f/2, Planar 45mm f/2, Planar 35mm f/2, Biogon 28mm f/2.8, and the incredible Hologon 16mm f/8. One can only hope that in this day of EVIL cameras, some enterprising manufacturer will build an adapter with a motor that will mount these lenses and allow for auto-focus on a full frame chipped camera.
