The original Contaflex is a 24x36 TLR introduced in 1935 by Zeiss Ikon, and announcing the Contax II and Contax III models. The name was reused from the 1950s for a range of 35mm SLRs with leaf shutter, see Contaflex (SLR).
The original Contaflex had the same type of metal focal plane shutter as the Contax I.
It had a special lens mount, incompatible with the rangefinder Contax models. The range of lenses included:
- Biogon 3.5cm f:2.8, with a special right angle finder
- Sonnar 5cm f:1.5
- Sonnar 5cm f:2
- Sonnar 8.5cm f:2
- Sonnar 13.5cm f:4
