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.

This miniature camera is listed in McKeown's as a Taiwanese copy of the Japanese Potenza camera. It is also found under the names Popular or Eiko Popular.
The instruction manual claims that the lens has a focal length of 26 mm and an aperture of f/8, which contradicts the markings on the front of the camera.
It is a charming little gadget, similar to those shaped like cans, which seems to be Eiko's specialty.
