For casual travel photos and social snapshots, the Tvs and following zoom versions of the Contax T line-up are a better choice for their flexibility, apart from their cheaper price. The zoom lens does not have the range of focal lengths found on similar cameras from other makers, being basically medium wide to a bit longer than normal, but its image quality is superior. Out of the context of a point-n-shoot, the lens is not exceptional, but neither is that of the T2. Optically, a compact SLR and basic normal lens from any camera maker of that era would blow away both the T2 and the Tvs. However, used as originally intended, both cameras are exceptional.
Yes you are right. In terms of image quality a cheaper slr could beat the Contax. I also made a video about a cheap Canon slr. But in terms of formfactor and build quality, this camera is perfect for daily use! And the images that the Carl Zeiss lens produces are also beautiful.
The music, the colour grading! Insane!

Great colour grading and look to this. Minolta lenses on your S5 II? Still looking forward to your lens video.
@@raksh9 Thanks! Yes, we use a set of vintage minolta lenses! I used a 28mm and a 50mm for this video.
