Product Description

The CONTAX SL300R T* is equipped with the Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar T 5.8-17.4mm F2.8-4.7, a 3x optical zoom lens developed by Carl Zeiss, and provides clear image thanks to the T coating applied to the lens surface. The adoption of Kyocera's proprietary image processing system ''RTUNE'' also enables full-memory, consecutive shooting at around 3.5 frames/second and fine color gradation with a reduction in noise. The 16-mm-thick full-flat body makes the camera highly portable when not in use. Rotating the lens section for shooting offers free choice of camera angles and easy framing. The magnesium die-cast body also features easy-to-hold genuine leather coverings on the front casing. A filter can be attached by using the special hood and adapter on the front of the lens.

Fine Pocket Digital Camera

Those interested in obtaining in digital imaging, the same splendid image quality for which Contax 35mm and medium format film cameras have been known for, will not be disappointed in this miniature digital camera. The resolution holds up quite well for at least 4 x 6" prints, thanks due to its Carl Zeiss T* lens. I've been impressed - but shouldn't be - by the excellent images I have seen produced with this tiny camera. Most importantly for users, this is a tiny digital camera that can fit almost...

Contax SL300R vs. Contax U4R

This is one of 2 very similar Contax models - be sure to compare before you buy!Compared to the Contax SL300R, the Contax U4R has the same body and lens, but adds: 4.2mp Sensor (instead of 3.34mp), 2 inch LCD monitor (instead of 1.5), 9 point AF, and a cradle for charging and computer/video connection with one dock.The U4R doesn't come with any SD card, but the 16mb one with the SL300R should be replaced by a bigger one right away anyway.(I won't mention prices because they might change after I...

Very Modern, Very Fast

Speed is a big theme of the marketing, and sure enough you can get off a burst of shots at a startling speed.With a Lexar 32x card, I can shoot 640x480 30fps until the card fills - at 2MB/sec, this doesn't take long, but you get stunningly good output for such a small device.(320x240 is still nice, and only 500k/s, or almost 10 minutes on a 256M card.)Note also that although it doesn't have a tripod mount, you can make it very stable by shooting with it folded flat - I've gotten some excellent driving...
