(added pic of Prinz 35EE. Have changed listing from Prinz 35E to 35EE as the 35E uses Cosinon lens not Chinonex suggesting more clone of chinon 35)

The Chinon 35 EE is a 35mm compact rangefinder camera made in Japan. It was introduced by Chinon in 1976. It has programmed auto-exposure using a CdS meter with a needle display of the shutter speed & aperture in the viewfinder, powered by a PX-675 mercury battery in the base.

The lens is a fixed Chinonex 38mm f2.7. There is a mechanical self-timer, operated by a lever very close to the lens barrel. Flash synchronization is provided through both a hot shoe on the top plate and a PC socket on the user's left end.

There were several minor variations in top-plate, lettering and lens-barrel design.

There are a number of "clones" of this camera (some with minor differences). See the Vivitar 35EE, GAF Memo 35ET and Prinz 35EE, for example. The Cosina 35 Compact E has the same basic body, but a rectangular shutter release button.
