Kodak Max Panoramic

The Kodak Max Panoramic is a 35mm film camera introduced by Kodak in the year 2000, representing the company's late 20th-century entry into the compact consumer snapshot market. Designed as a point-and-shoot device, it featured a fixed focal length lens optimized for its panoramic mode, which cropped the standard 35mm frame to create a wider, 13x36mm image. Utilizing 135 (35mm) film, it offered a simplified shooting experience with autofocus and automatic exposure, aimed at casual photographers seeking an easy way to capture wide-angle scenes without the need for specialized equipment. Its design followed contemporary compact camera aesthetics, prioritizing lightweight construction and ease of use over sophisticated features or rugged durability.
