The Kodak Brownie Vecta is a moulded plastic 127 film camera made in the UK by Kodak Ltd. from September 1963 until 1966. The design was by Kenneth Grange, and meant to give a comfortable holding position to minimise camera shake. The f/14 plastic lens has a fixed aperture, and there is only a single shutter speed; the controls being limited to the bar-shaped shutter release on the front and the winding knob on the photographer's right. Images are portrait format, 1⅝ × 2½ inches on 127 film.
