<p>goodday. I am new to the forum. in my younger years, in the 70s, I only had nikkormats - more specific : EL's. Did not want nor needed anything else. Than I sort of got lazy, used compacts for years, then switched to digital. Now I am back to film and decided to switch to Contax. I have a contax RTSiii and I am in love with this camera. The operation is so smooth, I like the feel - much heavier than the nikkormat, which is no lightweight - and the shutter - what to say :) My wife said 'what is that?' hearing the shutter sound. I think I would like to try the 159MM as well. Reading about it, it might turn out to be sort of a contax'nikkormat', with better lenses. Would like to hear your opinion, in case you use or ever used the 159 and one of the nikkormats.</p>
