The AF-45 is an autofocus point-and-shoot camera for 35mm film, introduced by Japanese manufacturer Ricoh in 1985. It was also sold by the name of AF-55. This camera was a downgraded version of the AF-50 which was released in the same year in 1985 with a slightly faster four element Rikenon lens. The AF-60S and the One Take AF are the models which received minor upgrade to their exterior design whilst they both have mostly the same features as the original AF-45.
