The Contax D is a 35mm single-lens reflex camera produced under the Zeiss Ikon name in Dresden during the post-war period. It used an M42 screw lens mount and a fixed pentaprism viewfinder, positioning it as one of the early eye-level SLRs aimed at serious amateurs and professionals.

At recent UK auction, hammer prices for the Contax D have been modest, with recorded sales of £45 in 2024 and £100 in 2025 — a range of roughly £45–£100 at saleroom level. As of today in 2026 the model sells for low two-figure to low three-figure sums, with condition, shutter function and the presence of a working lens being the main drivers of value.
