The Canon AF35M, by Canon Japan or the Sure Shot by Canon USA, was Canon Inc.'s first autofocus 35mm lens-shutter compact camera. It was launched in November 1979 and received the Japanese Ministry of International Trade and Industry's 1980 Good Design Award in September 1980. It proved successful among similar cameras from the competition and sold well; production reached 110,000 per month by the second half of 1981. It was partly supplanted by 1981's higher-specified AF35ML and wholly replaced by 1983's AF35M II.

The third in Canon's Sure Shot series, released in 1983, this was known as the (New) Sure Shot in the US, AF35M II in Europe, and Autoboy 2 in Japan. Its specifications are very similar to the original Sure Shot (but with a 4-element, 4-group lens this time) but can be identified by the sloped edge near the shutter release button.

• Lens: 38mm f/2.8 (4 elements in 4 groups).
• Triangulation system autofocus with pre-focus lock.
• Electromagnetic programmed shutter. EV 6 (f/2.8 at 1/8s) - 17 (f/16 at 1/500s)
• Reversed Galilean viewfinder with projected frames, zone focusing marks for near, medium, and far distances, parallax correction marks, battery check and LED warnings.
• Film speed settings of ISO 25-400 or 50-1000.
• Integral flash (guide No. 13 at ISO 100 in meters).
• Screw-in filter thread.
• Film advance: Auto-loading and winding.
