The Kodak Instamatic 77X is a 126 camera. It was built by Kodak from the end of the 70s until the 80s (1977 – 1984).
The range of functions is very similar to other Instamatic cameras. The Kodak Instamatic 77X comes with a 43 mm f/11 lens. The photographer does not have to worry about exposure time, aperture and focus, as these are fixed.
The exposure time is 1/50 s. For a Magicube flash bulb, the 77X has a corresponding socket on the top of the camera.
The 126 films needed for the Instamatic 77X are no longer manufactured. There is no alternative. So the camera can now only be used as a decorative object.

It is equivalent to the 77X in terms of functions. However, the color scheme of the camera differs.
