Fujifilm Instax Mini 12 Instant Film Camera, Lilac Purple

Easy for a child to use. My daughter loves her camera, we purchased the case and accessories to decorate her photos. Great quality camera and photos!

Great quality product. Expensive for a frivolous thing, but it is very fun for the kids. Easy to use.

Lightweight and mini, which make it easy to carry with. With it, I can print photos right after they are taken, creating memories within seconds, that’s the most reason why I get it. It combines vintage charm with modern convenience, offering a fun, creative experience. I’m happy that I got it!

New and improved!

This was a Christmas gift for my 11-year-old son, and according to him it was his favorite this year. I am a professional photographer and shoot with Fujifilm products myself, so I knew I had to get him started with something classic but easy. The picture quality is as expected for a Polaroid, and I of course love the vibrant colors that made me fall in love with fujifilm in the first place. This camera is fun and easy to use no matter what your skill level is. There's no skill needed, the flash, iso, focus, etc is all set for you once you click the button to take a picture. A great camera for someone who wants to try out photography and see if it is something they enjoy! The only functionality I would like to see added is the ability to upload photos digitally straight from the camera. NOT the current Scan & Save function, where you have to take a photo of the photo with your phone. Let's be real, unless you have insanely steady hands and flagship phone, you're gonna lose a lot more quality.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Beautiful and easy to use

This Insta max mini is both portable and reliable. The sleek design offers easy picture, taking from any angle. Makes a great gift or personal item. This camera was purchased to take progress photos throughout my pregnancy and has really helped to give that vintage feel that I was looking for for my pregnancy journal. Definitely a great investment. One downfall however, the film isn’t as cheap as some may like, so make sure to purchase it in bulk when it goes on sale!

The camera is cute and easy to use. And sure it’s nostalgic. But the pictures come out very grainy and unclear. The “pictures” shown in the item description are almost surely edited since none come out even half as good or with as much clarity of color or edges. In addition, the selfie screen is good, but the viewfinder sucks if you want to take a picture of something else. The item ends up mostly out of frame when you use it!! Would not recommend. Was overpriced for what I have, and I’m disappointed. Looking for something better.
