Zeiss Ikon

Does anyone know anything about the Zeiss Ikon camera Contina J?

My cousin bought one in London and has no manual or anything with it. If no anyone who can give us some idea what all the clocks are on the front and the best way to use it would be very grateful.

This is a mid 1960s the camera viewfinder. Try the link to Mike Butkus' for a manual. He does not have an 'E' manual, but if you follow the links to Zeiss manuals, you may find one of the other models Contina quite similar. This model could have a selenium light meter, but could not determine if the meter was coupled to the lens opening and shutter speed settings, or whether to transfer manually reading. In any case, it is a basic point and shoot the camera. It is fun to use once you have mastered its quirks.
