RTS different models

Hi Graham, Just to confirm what Ugo said. My Good frien Bob Letsche, formerly a great contributer to this site sent me these pics and explanations. He has made a very comprehensive picture chart of Contax and Kyocera models.

"Sounds like a circa 1979 "Fundus" Scientific/Medical variant of which there were quite few made for use by Zeiss and others for Ophthalmic purposes. It's on the chart. Cheers, Bob.

This last one is a little odd in that it has the Sci/Med front shutter lock but may not have the deeper shutter release shroud, as seen on other sci/med. It can be seen on the top shot above.

Note the early data back

Cheers, Bob."

Hi Paul, Thanks very much for the additional info - I've learnt some new facts about my old system - wonderful. Your pics are much appreciated - the body in my pic has the deeper shutter release shroud - odd I'd not noticed it -and no base plate scientific markings. The other is marked and has a button rather than lever winder.
I live and learn... Thanks to all the contributors.

Graham
