Once youРІР‚в„ўre in Manual Adjustment Mode there are three separate РІР‚СљAdjusting ModeРІР‚Сњ menus, which are selected using the A.B.C. Check out the G2 service manual if you are brave and want to try to figure that stuff out. If you did it right the shutter will not fire and the camera will now be in 'Manual Adjustment Mode.' You can do all sorts of things in the manual adjustment mode menus, like checking the shutter count, tweaking shutter speed timing, and calibrating the metering and autofocus. While still holding the rewind button, press the shutter button. With the camera back open, press and hold the film rewind button for 2 seconds.Р”Р€. Set the camera to any Drive mode other than Multiple Exposure mode.Р”Сћ. Let me know if anything is unclear or you need help. Nothing is saved in the camera firmware until you explicitly tell the camera to save your changes, so if you feel like you did something wrong just turn the camera off and start over. It sounds complicated at first, but itРІР‚в„ўs honestly not that hard and you really canРІР‚в„ўt screw anything up.

until now!Р”Р„fter studying the G2 repair manual ( ) and doing quite a bit of experimentation I figured out how to add the 21mm and 35mm lens data to the silver label cameras and I thought IРІР‚в„ўd share it here. The later green label bodies work with all the Contax lenses (except the 35-70mm zoom) but the earlier bodies with a silver label in the film loading are incompatible with the Contax 21mm and 35mm lenses. Contax G1 bodies come in two varieties, РІР‚Сљsilver labelРІР‚Сњ and РІР‚Сљgreen labelРІР‚Сњ.
