Kodak S-Series

The Kodak S series is a line of snapshot cameras from Eastman Kodak. Most models were introduced in the late 1980s and were available until the early 1990s from the US-American photographic company.

With one exception, all cameras come with a fixed focal length. The compact cameras have a plastic body and are relatively handy. All cameras are designed for 35mm film and have a built-in flash. The models were produced in various locations around the world and partly by other manufacturers at Kodak's request.
