Aires Cameras: Aires 35 II
The Aires 35-II camera was manufactured by the Aires Camera Industries Company of Tokyo, Japan in circa 1954. It is a well-made 35mm camera featuring a coupled rangefinder. It is constructed of metal with leather covering. It is fitted with an Aires Coral f3.2 lens mounted in a Seikosha-Rapid shutter capable of providing speeds from 1 second to 1/500 of a second. This camera is the telemetric version of the Aires 35. The 35-II is the first Japanese camera to propose a collimated frame in the viewfinder. Its shutter release is in fact the big lever located in fronting. Its general appearance precedes all the range of the telemetric Aires and in particular the 35-III and all its alternatives. Close to 40,000 Aires 35 II were sold and manufactured during its run.
