The '''Vivitar IC 100''' was a cheap and cheerful plastic camera designed for [[35mm]] film. With [[fixed focus]] and shutter speed and a small aperture it fits into the [[toy camera]] category. It's very small, lightweight, and fragile. It was assembled in China for the American [[Vivitar]] company, mainly for sale in far eastern markets, sometime in the 2000s. [[ASA|ISO]] 400 film with only 24 exposures (to prevent strain on the shutter release spring) is recommended.
