Période

1980s

Canada

Made in Canada. A Label attached to the front of the camera box states that the camera was purchased from Eastview Photo Ltd., Ottawa, Ontario. Kodak Canada was founded by Eastman Kodak in 1899 in a Toronto shop where employees cut sheet film and fitted lenses on cameras to support the growing potential for a photographic market in Canada. As Canadian interest in photography grew, the company expanded across the country throughout the 20th century to produce in all aspects of photography including still and movie cameras, film, x-ray film, photocopy paper, and photographic chemicals under many popular names including Brownie, Kodacolor, Carousel, and Supermatic.

Technique

Type sample of Kodak Instant print camera produced before Kodak lost the patent fight with Polaroid. As this type is now in violation of patent, it will be withdrawn from the market. This is a rigid body internal processing camera with fixed focus that uses Kodamatic Instant Colour Film HS144-10 to produce instant photographs. The camera had an f/12.8, 100mm fixed focus lens and an electronic shutter (1/15 to 1/400). It produced a picture size of 67 x 91mm on a 98 x 102mm picture unit. The camera style was first introduced in 1982 as Champ Kodamatic Instant and was renamed Kodak Trimprint 920 Instant in 1984. The camera was also manufactured by Tupperware from 1982-1984 and was called Partytime II Kodamatic. In Europe, it was sold as Kodamatic 920 camera. All Kodak instant cameras and films were withdrawn from the market from January 9th, 1986 due to a patent infringement claim by Polaroid, although Kodak claimed the camera was different (Coe, 266): "The Kodak instant film differed from the Polaroid product in that the final image was formed on the back of the picture unit, so that a right-way-round picture was produced by direct exposure. No mirror was needed to reverse the image laterally, as in the rival Polaroid SX-70 and similar cameras" (Coe, 266).
