About the Contax G#

Autofocus rangefinder mount of the Contax G1/G2.

Adapting basics#

A lens can be adapted with simple tube spacers when its flange distance is longer than the camera's. With 29.00 mm, Contax G lenses can in principle go on bodies with shorter flanges such as Leica M, Chaika, Pentax Auto 110, Fujifilm G-mount, Samsung NX, Canon RF. Bodies with this mount can take lenses from longer-flange systems such as Hasselblad XPan, Nikon S / Contax RF, Contax RF-mount, Minolta V-mount, Four Thirds, Konica AR, Konica F-mount, Canon FD.
