The Computor 35 was a 35mm rangefinder camera made in Japan by Petri. It had automatic exposure via a CdS cell mounted on the front of the lens (inside the filter thread) and electronicly-controlled shutter, with red & green LEDs on top of the camera indicating slow (<1/30s) or fast enough speed selection. There was a coupled rangefinder (device) operated by a lever on the focussing ring (shown in the picture, to the left of the lens). The film speed was set by a ring at the front of the lens between 25 - 800 ASA.

The lens was labelled C.C. Petri 1:2.8 f=40mm, stopping down to f22; a later version (Computor II) had an f1.7 lens. The shutter ran from 1/250 through to least 10 secondssource needed. The body was available in black or silver.
