Introduced in 1978 by Vivitar, the Vivitar 35ES was a compact fixed-lens 35mm shutter-priority rangefinder camera built to Vivitar specifications and rebadged by Cosina. The camera is very similar in most respects to the Konica Auto S3, Minolta Hi-Matic 7sII and Revue 400SE. The 35ES has a fast (f/1.7) 40mm, six-element lens that has garnered a reputation for extremely sharp and detailed images.
