The Advantix C470 was a basic APS point-and-shoot in Kodak's Advantix line, sold around the turn of the 2000s. It sat near the bottom of the range, distinguished mainly by its flip-up front cover that raises the built-in flash above the fixed lens, and offered the standard APS choice of Classic, HDTV and Panoramic print formats.
Specifications are minimal: a fixed lens with a fixed f/5.6 aperture and a top shutter speed of 1/200 sec, automatic film advance and rewind, a self-timer, and the flip-up automatic flash intended to reduce red-eye by sitting higher off the lens axis. There is no zoom and no focus control; exposure is fully automatic with no user overrides beyond the flash and format switches.
As a shooter it is one of the weakest Advantix models — period and retrospective reviews found focus soft and the specification very limited — so its appeal today is largely as a shelf piece or a curiosity of the APS era. The flip-front design does give it more character than most beige-box APS compacts of the time.
APS film was discontinued in 2011, so any use means expired stock of uncertain quality at high prices, and many of these sell as props or display items. If you intend to run film through one, confirm the camera powers up on fresh batteries, the flip-up flash charges and fires, and the film door and cassette chamber are clean and undamaged.
