Aires made some nice rangefinder and TLR cameras in Japan in the 1950s... I think the Aires-Flex occasionally appeared with Zuiko lenses, but maybe I'm misremembering. My personal favorite was the 35-IIIC rangefinder which was styled to look like a Leica M3 but had a noninterchangeable f/1.9 lens in a leaf shutter. They also made one model (still leaf shuttered) with interchangeable lenses (including an f/1.5 normal), and there was a 35mm SLR (yes, still a leaf shutter) before they finally tanked. |
