Pros: Extremely well built. Very Small. Excellent Controls.

The Bottom Line: The Contax T ix is the type of camera that APS was meant to enable. Extremely small and the highest quality piece out there.

| kdemas's Full Review: Contax T IX APS Film Camera |
Simply put... this is THE finest P&S travel and event camera I have ever owned. It's combination of small size, excellent build quality, super lens and logical controls makes it my constant companion.
The results from this little camera never disappoint. Picture quality is excellent, given the limitations of APS, and it is the perfect size to just hook up to your belt and go. The titanium case is also a big plus.
I own other P&S cameras, including the Leica C1, the Leica C11 and the Contax T3. I like all of them, and some do have their advantages, but for an everyday camera or a unit to take on a trip the T ix is the clear winner. As long as you do not need a zoom lens this camera is terrific.
The T ix even has advantages over it's big brother, the T3. The T ix has a much simpler "on/off" button and the aperture priority mode is much simpler to use.
Overall, if you need a small P&S you cannot do better than this camera.
