Kodak's Portrait 'Hawkeye' *Star* is a British-made camera box camera for 620 film, at the time a very popular film format. The camera was produced from 1933, and was offered for "premium" sales.[1]
The name comes from its built-in "close-up" lens intended for portraits.
Although 620 film was discontinued in the 1990s, it is possible to convert readily available 120 film for use in 620 cameras. People have taken modern photos using old box cameras of the 1930s.
