The Kodak EK200 is an instant camera from Eastman Kodak. It was produced by the American photographic pioneer in the USA in the 1970s.
It was introduced as EK6 and later renamed to EK200. You could also buy it under the name Kodak Colorburst 200.
The Kodak EK200 is partly made of plastic, but the leather-covered part on the front gives it a distinctly high-quality impression. From today’s point of view, it looks a bit old-fashioned.
The instant camera doesn’t offer many settings. The exposure can only be adjusted with the light/dark control on the front of the camera. The fixed focal length is focused manually via a slider, which is also located on the front. The closest focusing distance is 1.2 meters or 4 feet.
When the camera is not in use, a cover can be folded up to protect the lens and viewfinder from external influences. On the top of the camera there is a connection for a flash.
Films are no longer produced for the Kodak EK200. It requires the PR-10 (PR144) films, which are no longer offered by anyone. The films from Polaroid or The Impossible Project cannot be used in the instant camera.
