The KONICA EEmatic S (Konica EEmatic S) is a 35mm film rangefinder camera with EE (automatic exposure) that was released in the late 1960s by Konishiroku Photo Industry (now Konica Minolta) of Japan.

It well represents the trend of the time, "a camera that anyone can take pictures without failure."
