Chronology of cameras Eiko 

Eiko Company Ltd. is known for manufacturing two types of cameras from the early 1980s until around 2000.
The first and most well-known type has the general shape of a can. There are numerous models, often used as promotional items for beverages, which makes sense, but also for candies or paint.
The second shape is that of a wheel. These models are much less common.
In both cases, these are very simple cameras that use 110 film. The disappearance of this film format in the early 2000s inevitably led to the end of Eiko cameras.

Fido Dido is a cartoon character created in 1985 (which contradicts claims found in various sources regarding Eiko cameras, whose manufacturing is said to have ended in 1983) by Joanna Ferrone and Sue Rose. He quickly became the mascot for the 7-Up soda.

However, the character achieved success beyond its association with this Pepsico beverage, even inspiring the creation of a perfume.
This model has a flash shoe, which is unusual for this type of camera.
