Retro Kodak Instamatic 56X Compact 126 Cartridge Film Camera

I am looking to sell a vintage camera, the Kodak Instamatic 56X Compact Film Camera. It is in a very good used condition and comes with an outer hard plastic Kodak case with strap. It is a 126 cartridge film camera - ideal for lomography. Manufactured between 1972 and 1977


Lens :   1:11/43mm fixed focus

Single shutter speed of 1/50 sec

Optical viewfinder

Takes magicube flash (not included)


Camera is being sold as untested, but has been stored away dry. There is light wear and marks to the camera and case from age / use / handling, but still looks OK in my opinion.

I have tried the moving parts and they do all seem to function fine and freely. I have also “clicked” the camera by adjusting the lever to the back and it did make a noise, so it definitely works in some capacity.

It is being sold as untested simply as I am not an expert on cameras and wouldn’t know where to begin!

Camera came from a collection of vintage cameras and accessories all stored dry, please check my other listings for other similar items. A nice collectable item which I am sure could still be used.

Measures approx 3 ¼” high by 4 ¼” wide, not in case.

I have not tested the camera, nor do I know how to fully, so therefore I am selling it as untested and possibly in need of attention, although cosmetically it looks very good and I have tried moving parts and they move fine.

A nice cased vintage Kodak camera for use or for your collection or use.

Basically what you see in the photos is what you will receive.

I have included a number of photos and these probably describe the item better than I can and form part of the description. Everyone has different considerations when purchasing items and if you need any further information, please feel free to contact me and I will try to help.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my auction.

Guaranteed genuine, original and as described – you will not be disappointed!
