The Kodak Brownie Starmatic is a vintage, molded-plastic viewfinder camera manufactured by the Eastman Kodak Company from 1959 to 1963. The high-end pinnacle of the consumer-grade Brownie lineup, it used 127 roll film to produce twelve square 4x4cm negatives per roll. It is celebrated as the very first Brownie camera to feature automatic exposure, bridging the gap between ultra-simple box cameras and modern, automated "point-and-shoot" photography.

Notes on how this behaves in practice — what it does in the field is worth as much as what the datasheet says.
