The Contaflex Super B was launched in 1963, as an update to the Contaflex line. The camera upgraded the old selenium meter to one capable of shutter priority and automatic exposure, with a read-out both on top of the camera and in the viewfinder. Additionally, the camera has a redesigned Zeiss Tessar 50mm f/2.8 optic that was much better than previous versions.
Like earlier Contaflex cameras, the Super B has a between-the-lens Compur leaf shutter, with a range between 1 second up to 1/500th. Additional optics for this camera included a 35mm f/4 (later replaced with a f/3.2 version), an 85mm f/4 (which was also later replaced by a f/3.2 version), and a 115mm f/4.
