I’m sorry

Because we can’t speak english

I am using DeepL translate, so it may be a strange sentence,

but I would like you to understand

Thank you




In this issue, we would like to introduce the battery compartment of a CONTAX manual focus film SLR camera released in 1987.



CONTAX 167MT (Reference product)




The battery compartment of the CONTAX 167MT is located at the bottom of the body.



Turn the screw on the bottom edge.



The entire bottom is removed to reveal the battery compartment.

The batteries used are four AAA batteries.




This time we introduced the battery compartment of a manual focus film SLR camera released by Contax in 1987.


We have already introduced the 167MT as a Porsche-designed camera, but we think the battery compartment is quite a surprising design.


It is a surprisingly simple design, but I am convinced that this is the German design of quality and solidity.







I will continue to write columns about surprising discoveries and features with film cameras, so please look forward to them!


Thank you for reading my column today.
