The Olympus 35 LE rangefinder camera was launched in 1965. It featured the world's first programmable electronic shutter with a flashmatic function. The 1/15-1/500s programmable EE electronic shutter is controlled by a CdS light sensor through some transistor electronics. Operation is as simple as setting the distance and pushing the shutter button.
