The Contax G2 is a 35mm rangefinder camera body designed for the Contax G-mount lens system. It employs a hybrid autofocus system that combines active infrared with passive phase-matching for high focusing precision, complemented by manual focus control via a dedicated dial. The electronic rangefinder provides accurate subject acquisition, while the bright viewfinder features automatic parallax correction and zooming frame lines matched to the mounted lens.

The camera is built around a titanium-clad body, offering both durability and refined construction. It supports a vertically traveling electronic metal shutter with speeds from 16s to 1/6000s, plus Bulb mode, ensuring wide exposure flexibility. The shutter lag is minimized through electronic release control, making it responsive for a rangefinder system.

Exposure control is managed through aperture priority AE and manual exposure, with a center-weighted TTL metering system. Exposure compensation is available in precise steps, allowing accurate adjustments. The G2 also integrates motorized film advance and rewind, with continuous shooting up to 4 frames per second.

Additional functions include DX coding support (ISO 25–5000), self-timer, and compatibility with dedicated Contax TLA flash units via the hot shoe, enabling full TTL flash control. Power is supplied by two CR2 lithium batteries, ensuring stable operation of the camera’s electronic systems.
