Aires Viscount (model 2,8) 

• 1959 
• Aires Camera Ind. Co. Tokyo, Japan 
• Viewfinder camera 
• Japan 

Two versions of the Aires Viscount with 2.8 / 45 mm lens are known; model M2.8 (with built-in Sel. light meter) and model 2.8 (without letter addition = without light meter). Even with a less bright lens, the Aires Viscount still comes across as grand enough. According to Aires and Nikon experts, the Q Coral 2.8 / 45 mm lens was built by Nikon. In contrast to America, where the Aires cameras were widely sold, they were a lot rarer in the Netherlands and are nowadays rarely offered.
