The Canon AF35M (also known as the Sure Shot in North America and the Autoboy in Japan) is a 35mm point-and-shoot compact camera by Canon Inc.. Introduced in November 1979, it was Canon's first compact camera with an autofocus feature. The camera later spawned a line of Canon compact cameras marketed as "Sure Shot" in North America, "Prima" in Europe, and "Autoboy" in Japan from the 1980s to 2005.
