I see a Minolta CLE in the bottom left bin there. Those cameras are great and fairly valuable.

It’s almost certainly inoperable. But it’s the best thing in this image aside from the Bolex and maybe the Contax rangefinder.

Probably a Kiev, not Contax. Contax only have a serial number in the coldshoe area while Kievs had additional info stamped as you can kinda make out in the picture.

Eta, I looked closer, there are several Contax/Kievs so ignore that I said. Lol

The red is definitely a Kiev, the yellows could be Contaxs.
