The Zeiss Ikon Contina I (524/24) is a 35mm viewfinder camera produced by Zeiss Ikon in the 1950s. It was positioned as an entry-level folding/compact 35mm option within the Contina line, sitting below the rangefinder-equipped Contessa models.

Auction data for the Contina I (524/24) is thin: a single UK saleroom hammer result of £25 in July 2025 is the only verified data point we have, so any sense of what one is worth today rests on that figure rather than a settled range. At that level the camera sells for entry-collector money, and condition — clean glass, working shutter speeds, intact leatherette — will swing the price more than anything else.
