The EE Merit was a 1962 autoexposure camera made by Mamiya. This version was the simpler scale-focusing model with an f/2.8 Mamiya-Kominar 40mm lens. Around this was a ring-shaped selenium photocell, located within the filter threads to compensate automatically for the light-loss when filters were used.

Mamiya also provided this camera for other distributors to sell under their own names. It appeared as the Mansfield Eye-Tronic 35 and as the Honeywell Electric Eye.

Mamiya made a variant of this same camera offering true rangefinder focusing, the Mamiya EE Super Merit.
