About this deal

And with that, this mini-review is over. Thanks so much for reading and please add any questions or comments below. If you’ve shot this film already, I’d be especially keen to hear what you think and whether your experiences match with mine. If you are presenting online (or enlarged), and intend a monochrome output then yes, I would recommend using Instax Mini Monochrome due to what I saw as better dynamic range and detail rendition. However, be aware there are some colours that don’t translate correctly into monochrome, so in certain circumstances, you may be better off using Instax Color and desaturating in post-production. EDUCATION: Chris graduated Magna Cum Laude from Adelphi University with a degree in Communications in Journalism in 2009. Since then, he's learned and adapted to various things in the fields of social media, SEO, app development, e-commerce development, HTML, etc. You could cheat at instant photography competitions, if it wasn’t for a manufacturing defect on the printer which gives purple light leaks on the long sides of the print, but hey ho, it’s the only printer you can buy.

For artists, I really hope that Fujifilm releases a wide version of this film (and a better Fuji Instax Wide camera to go with it), as the size is still a major limiting factor to an otherwise fantastic film format. It’s simply too small to shoot landscapes and non-portrait photography effectively.Instax film is currently available in two sizes, Mini (2.4 by 1.8 inches, HW) and Wide (2.4 by 3.9 inches), with a Square format coming next year. At press time you can only get the Monochrome film in the smaller Mini format, which is a shame, as images shot on the larger format are more impactful when viewed in person. Instax Mini Picture Format Instant Film from Fuji. This is an incredibly sharp, credit card-sized, daylight-balanced ISO 800 film made for use in Instax Mini Series Cameras. Recognised for its excellent colour reproduction, the film has a glossy finish and is an excellent choice for general use, portraiture or even with electronic flash. Its also a fun film to use - easy to load, shoot and best of all - no wasted time at the lab wondering how your images came out. Due to its "mini" size, it is easier to carry, file and store when compared to larger, more traditional film formats. Every emulsion reacts to colours differently. In a colour film, this results in a particular colour signature or palette, which is tuned by the manufacturer for its target market. I shot Reala 100 and other Fujifilm films for years and they are tailored for the Asian market.

Suitable for: Modern i-Type Polaroid cameras ( Polaroid Now, Polaroid Now+, Polaroid OneStep2, Polaroid OneStep+), Polaroid Lab Sure, it’s not a new 135, 120 or sheet film and it’s certainly not the return of Neopan but it is progress and it shows that if there’s a perceived market, we can get new toys to play with.

until we see the eventual release of Leica’s own version, which is most likely rebranded Fujifilm film, anyway – EMULSIVE Suitable for: Vintage Polaroid 600 cameras, Modern i-Type Polaroid cameras (Polaroid Now, Polaroid Now+, Polaroid OneStep2, Polaroid OneStep+), Polaroid Lab The original film is what matters if you are showing those in person, but the scan is what counts if you are presenting online; and I can see more detail in enlarged scans than in the originals. Let’s face it, a 62x46mm print isn’t going to make anybody “ooh” and “ah” over the detail. That said, scans of the images made better use of the limited resolution.

The goal isn’t to make true to life colours, or Kodachrome primaries, but to make flattering portraits and landscapes. Skin tones are lightened and yellows shift slightly to ruddier tones. Overall colours are muted, but reds and particularly greens remain vibrant. Blues are considerably darkened improving sky contrast. I absolutely love this new instant film. I found the color Fuji Instax film to be a bit dull for my tastes, but the monochrome film creates fun, surprising images. I finally can put my great Neo 90 to good use for more than just parties. Before working out which kind of Polaroid film you need, you first need to be aware that there are four kinds of Polaroid camera: The Mini 12 comes in at 4.8 by 4.1 by 2.6 inches (HWD) and weighs about 10.3 ounces. We received it in Pastel Blue, but you can also get it in a proverbial rainbow of colors: Blossom Pink, Clay White, Lilac Purple, and Mint Green. The box includes a matching nylon wrist strap, along with two AA batteries that provide power. With all of these cameras, it’s also quite tough to use studio strobes with the exception being the Diana F+. Pair it with glass lenses, and you get something a bit better.

It looks like you're shopping with us from within the EU.

On top of these, Polaroid makes an instant photo printer called the Polaroid Lab, which is technically an i-Type product. Does this all sound right to you? Have you had different experiences with Fujifilm Instax cameras, printers and the Instax Mini Color and Monochrome films? Greens, yellows, oranges and reds come out ever so slightly green. Blues and to a lesser extent magenta, have an ever so subtle purple hue. It’s not so strong that you’d say it’s not monochromatic, but it’s enough that EMULSIVE wrote that it goes green in the shadows and when an orange filter was used, the whole image came out green. However, while the image quality is great, the actual size of the image is a major limiting factor. The image is small enough that it can be difficult to make out details, and if the image is blown up too much when scanning, it can turn fuzzy despite the image itself being relatively sharp.
