The Sure Shot (US)/AF35M (Europe)/Autoboy (Japan) was an early example (1979) of an autofocus camera - Canon claim: "This was the world's first Lens-Shutter 35mm autofocus camera at the time."[1], although the Konica C35 AF used the same autofocus mechanism two years earlier. It was the first camera released in Canon's huge-selling Sure Shot/Prima/Autoboy series.
