Sharing high honors among American 35mm cameras with the Argus C44, the Kodak Signet 80 is the last 35mm camera to be made in the USA with interchangeable lenses. The body of the camera is made of Bakelite plastic (like many earlier Kodak and Argus models), but workmanship and finish are first rate. Shutter speeds run from 1/4 to 1/250, the view/rangefinder is exceptionally good, it features rapid spool-less loading and a two-stroke rapid wind, plus a built in uncoupled EV system light meter. Lenses available were a 35mm wide, 50/2.8 triplet normal, and 90mm telephoto in a slick bayonet mount reminiscent of some Bell & Howell movie cameras.
