A more luxurious version of Chinon's 35FA II, the 35FA Super had integrated motor drive, and a flash popping out at the side. A sliding cover protects the lens and locks the shutter button. What sets it apart from its cheaper brother is a faster f/2,8 lens, a focus zone indicator in the finder, close focus warning, fully automatic loading and setting film speed in 1/3 stops. It was also sold, with different cosmetics, as the Bauer 35 AF Motor.
