Canon AF35ML/Super Sure Shot/Autoboy Super

1981 Point and shoot 135 (35 mm) Autofocus

The Canon AF35ML is a vintage 35mm point-and-shoot film camera manufactured by Canon Inc. starting in 1981. It is best known for its incredibly fast, fixed Canon 40mm f/1.9 lens, which made it the compact camera of choice for professionals and enthusiasts who wanted to shoot in low light without a flash. Equipped with early electronic autofocus, automatic film loading, and motorized winding, it packed high-end optical performance into an unassuming, fully automatic plastic body.
