Kodak Rainbow Hawk-Eye No.2A (Tim's Official Camera)

The Rainbow Hawk-Eye No.2A (Tim's Official Camera) was a basic, entry-level 35mm camera produced by Kodak for a brief period in 1931-1932. It featured a simple bakelite body, fixed-focus lens, and a straightforward shutter mechanism, designed primarily for casual snapshots and marketed as a budget option, likely tied to a promotion. As part of the long-running Hawk-Eye series known for its box-like design and affordability, it represented Kodak's strategy to make 35mm photography accessible to the general consumer market during the early years of the format's popularization. Its character is defined by its utilitarian design and lack of advanced features.
