The Contarex Super (or Contarex S) is a 35mm SLR camera made by Zeiss Ikon (West), released in 1967. It was a further development, including TTL metering, of the Contarex I. In total 9600 Contarex Super cameras were produced[1].
Its rare predecessor the Contarex Professional alias Contarex P had a similar camera body, but without built-in meter.
Both models had fixed prism viewfinders (unlike the Contarex Special) but could accept user-exchangable focusing screens through the lens throat.
