The Beauty 35 Super is a 35mm coupled rangefinder introduced in 1956 by the Japanese company Taiyōdō. It is fitted with a 45 mm f/2.8 F.C. Canter lens.
The film wind lever contains a frame counter and a film reminder dial with 4 positions: empty, b&w, color tungsten and color daylight.
Early advertising literature indicates that the first examples had a Copal MX shutter with a maximum speed of 1/500 sec., but examples are rare, and three versions of this model are otherwise known. Two have either a Copal MX or MXV shutter with a maximum speed of 1/300 sec. The other variant has a Synchro-Compur MX shutter with a maximum shutter speed of 1/500 sec.
