Nikon’s First Autofocus Compact. Cosmetically Mint, Complete in Its Box.

The L35AF arrived in 1983 as Nikon’s first autofocus compact, and Nikon was proud enough of it to nickname it “Pikaichi” in Japan, roughly “number one”. The lens is the reason: a 35mm f/2.8 Sonnar-type design of five elements in four groups, sharper and punchier than most compacts of its day. Infrared autofocus, automatic exposure and a pop-up flash that rises when the light fades handle the technical side. A backlight lever and a manual ISO dial give you control when you want it. It even takes standard 46mm filters, which is rare on a point-and-shoot. This example is cosmetically mint and comes in its original box. One thing to know: the self-timer doesn’t work, because its lever has been fixed in place. Every other function has been tested and works as it should. For the photographer who wants a sharp, dependable everyday compact, or the collector who appreciates Nikon’s first step into autofocus.
