The Snappy 20 and its slightly more sophisticated sibling, the Snappy 50, earned a good review in the September 1982 issue of \u003cem\u003ePopular Photography: \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"In this case, the name says it all. “Snappy” surely refers to the legions of cartridge- and disk-camera snapshooters that Canon hopes to lure to 35-mm with these inexpensive, highly automated models.\u003cbr\u003eQuite compact and rather handsome in a plastic, space-age fashion, the Snappies have a heavily checkered, contoured right side that makes hand holding a, er .. . snap. Operation requires a bare minimum of attention, although it is not quite as “decision-free” as with the Kodak Disc models. \u003cbr\u003e... For their intended audience of previously uncritical picture-takers, the Snappy cameras should be a revelation. The combination of (comparatively) huge 24x36-mm negatives and cleverly designed cameras should give much sharper, finer-grained prints than these snapshooters are used to.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis camera requires two AA batteries (not included).\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCanon Museum entry\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/global.canon\/en\/c-museum\/product\/film108.html\"\u003ehttps:\/\/global.canon\/en\/c-museum\/product\/film108.html\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/global.canon\/en\/c-museum\/product\/film155.html\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe camera was tested with batteries and film installed and all functions are working correctly (the film was not developed however).
