How to Find the Model Number on My Vivitar Camera

Vivitar prints camera model numbers on its cameras.

As Vivitar creates and releases new cameras, the company assigns each series its own model number. Knowing the model number of your Vivitar camera makes it easier to request repair service, find compatible accessories or recommend the camera to a friend. To use the company online FAQs, you need to know your camera's model number. With the camera in hand, it takes just a few seconds to learn what model number you have.

Instructions

1. Remove your Vivitar camera from its case.

2. Rotate the camera to look at the front panel, where the lens protrudes from the camera body.

3. Look for the Vivitar logo printed on the front of the camera.

4. Find the camera's model number printed below or beside the Vivitar logo.

Tips & Warnings

• If the model number on your Vivitar camera has worn away or is covered, check the front of your camera's user manual for the model number listed next to the Vivitar logo.

• The model number and serial number of your Vivitar camera differ. To find the serial number -- which is often requested for repair services -- look on the base of the camera. A metal plate located near the tripod mount will contain the camera's serial number. Each Vivitar camera has its own unique serial number containing a combination of letters and numbers.
