KB 10 specifications

The Kodak KB 10 is a compact 35mm film camera that embodies the spirit of innovation and accessibility that Kodak has championed since its inception. Designed for both novice and experienced photographers, the KB 10 is an emblem of Kodak's commitment to making photography simple and enjoyable for everyone.

One of the standout features of the Kodak KB 10 is its straightforward operation. With a fixed-focus lens and a simple point-and-shoot design, the camera allows users to effortlessly capture images without the need for extensive technical knowledge. This makes it an ideal choice for casual photographers who appreciate spontaneity in their photography. The camera is equipped with a 43mm lens, which offers a versatile focal length suitable for a variety of subjects, whether it’s landscapes, portraits, or everyday moments.

Another significant characteristic of the Kodak KB 10 is its automatic exposure system. This technology enables the camera to adjust shutter speed and aperture settings automatically, ensuring that users can achieve well-exposed photographs in various lighting conditions. This feature is particularly beneficial for those who may not be familiar with manual exposure settings, enabling them to focus on the composition rather than the technicalities of the shot.

The KB 10 also boasts a built-in flash that enhances its capability in low-light situations. The camera's flash is automatically activated in dim lighting, providing users with confidence that their photos will be illuminated properly. This feature, combined with the automatic exposure, results in a highly user-friendly experience.

Portability is another strong point of the Kodak KB 10. With its compact size and lightweight design, the camera can easily fit into a pocket or bag, making it a convenient companion for travel and everyday use. The durable construction means that it can withstand the rigors of casual use, ensuring it remains a reliable tool for capturing memories.

In terms of aesthetics, the KB 10 maintains a classic design typical of Kodak’s range of cameras, featuring ergonomic contours that make it comfortable to hold.

In summary, the Kodak KB 10 combines simplicity with functionality. Its automatic exposure system, integrated flash, and compact design make it an excellent choice for anyone looking to explore the world of photography without the complexity that often accompanies it. This camera stands as a testament to Kodak's legacy of empowering photographers to capture life’s moments with ease.
