Introduced in 1987, the Chinon Auto 3001 was priced at 350 USD, higher than many SLRs of that era, owing to its innovative triple infrared beam autofocus system and to excellent build quality.


The lens is protected by a slide cover that also serves as on/off switch. The sensor windows are permanently protected, being covered by a part of the slide cover made out of red plastic even when the cover is open.
