The Ogikon 35E is a quality rangefinder camera, made by Royal Camera. It was a rebadged version of the Royal 35M, for the exporter Hiroyuki Ogino & Company Ltd., Nogemachi, Nakaku Yokohama. It was similar in appearance to the Royal 35LE with a slightly different front plate to that found on the 35M, and carried either a Tominor 45mm f/2.8, 45mm f/1.9 or an Ogikon 45mm f/1.9 lens in a Copal-SVL shutter.
