instax Mini EVO Camera case

Product Information

That's not to say that it will equally suit everyone who has an interest in instant photography. Some people will be better served by a dedicated Instax printer like the Instax Link Wide and Instax Mini Link, while others will prefer the more analogue experience of a camera like the Instax Mini 40 or Instax Mini 11. The good news is that you can use the Fujifilm Instax Mini Evo as a printer, as well as a camera. That means that in theory you could completely ignore the camera aspect and use the device to print much better photos from your smartphone, or even dedicated camera. Sample Images The instax mini Evo is a unique, high-end addition to the instax family,” said Toshi Ida, President FUJIFILM Europe. “ This hybrid camera and printer was designed to give photographers the flexibility to choose an analog experience or digital where you choose images to instantly print, which images to share and which images to store for later access. Offering 100 ways to capture images and the highest-ever instax instant print quality, all in a timeless classic design, the mini Evo is a unique companion for chronicling and sharing life’s milestones in an instant. One important limitation to be aware of is that the Mini Evo only saves images that you've actually printed into the app, not every photo that you've taken - so if you've filled up the built-in memory with 45 images, but only printed 10 of them, only those 10 will be saved in the app. Designed to be as user-friendly as possible, learning how to use the Instax Mini Evo isn't too complicated.

You can also use your smartphone as a remote control and wirelessly release the camera's shutter from the INSTAX mini EVO app, which is available for iOS and Android phone. The main menu features a number of different settings which you can change, including face detection, switching the AF illuminator on or off (you might wish to switch it off if you’re trying to shoot somewhere discreetly), print settings, bluetooth settings, date and time and so on. It’s best to view the digital versions of the photos as just a guide to let you know what you should bother to print. They don’t stand up on their own when viewed on a computer screen, and certainly aren’t ones you’re likely to want to keep or use for any other purpose than for printing in the small Instax size. Overall, the Fujifilm Instax Mini Evo is the best realization yet of a hybrid Instax camera/printer device. It may not make the most sense for most people, but it's undeniably stylish to look at and lots of fun to use, both qualities that Instax fans will love. You can choose to ignore this and shoot in landscape orientation if you prefer, but the text on the camera will be the “correct” way up only when holding the Mini Evo in the portrait orientation.Instax film is incredibly simple to use - all you need to do is line up the small yellow line on the Instax film with the same yellow line on the camera and close the door when it’s in place. Be careful not to accidentally open the film door once you start using the film though, as you’ll risk exposing and ruining the film. One of the most useful app functions is the “direct print” option, which allows you to print any image which you have stored on your phone. This effectively turns the Mini Evo into a portable Instax Mini printer, and is a great way to use to print better photos than the onboard camera is capable of capturing. Once an image has been printed out, you’ll need to allow some time for the Instax film to develop - in other words, don’t be alarmed when it pops out completely white. After a few minutes, the colours should have fully rendered.

To charge to its full capacity can take up to three hours, but once it is charged, the camera is able to print up to 100 images from a single charge. Of course, if you’re using it to take pictures as well, the power will run out sooner.It's surrounded by a circular lens dial which is used to cycle through the 10 different lens effects - Normal, Vignette, Soft Focus, Blur, Fisheye, Colour Shift, Light Leak, Mirror, Double Exposure, and Half-frame. The Instax Mini Evo is the latest and best hybrid instant camera that Fujifilm have ever released, successfully combining old and new, vintage and modern to create an easy-to-use, well designed and above all fun all-in-one Instax camera and printer. You’ll also find the On/Off power switch at the lower-left corner of the front of the camera., a slightly odd position that again makes more sense when shooting in portrait rather than landscape mode. In bright conditions, the shots that it can produce are fine for the small size of an Instax print, though, even taking into account the increased 600dpi resolution that the Instax Mini Evo prints at. In darker conditions, the camera struggles to focus (even with the AF assist light switched on), and using the flash is a definite requirement, too.
