What You Should Know About Fuji Instax Cameras And Film

By Maureen Kerr


Fuji Corporation has long been the leader in 35 mm film quality. Their film has consistently delivered striking colors, and images that are sharp and crystal clear. With the Fuji Instax system, they have stepped into the instant film gap left by Polaroid. Instax film is professional quality film that does not suffer in comparison to their 35 mm offerings.

There is a need for instant film where pictorial evidence must be gathered that cannot be altered. Digital images are very easily altered. Film images can be changed in the darkroom or even, inadvertently, in the processing machine. An insurance adjuster needs to take verifiable pictures of accidents. It's a great idea for an individual to take instant pictures of their property for insurance purposes.

There are two basic designs of instant cameras in this series. The minis take a picture the size of a credit card. These pictures are great for your passport, your wallet, or whenever you need a photograph for an identification card. The 210 take a wide screen photograph. Fuji mini film works in any of its mini camera. There are three professional films in addition to the standard instax wide format film. All films come in easy to load packages, with ten pictures per package. Further discounts on the film are possible with larger packages.

Many people have had favorable experiences with this system. They are impressed by the picture quality. Colors are vivid and well balanced. Film is easily installed and requires no developing effort. There are additional films available for use with the 201. You can take color or black and white images with this camera.

There are two minis to choose from, the 50S and the 7. The 50S is compact and stylish. It is capable of taking low light shots because of its adjustable shutter speed. There is also 2:1 magnification. Those who like to look in the viewfinder and take the shot will enjoy the 7.

The versatile 210 comes with a side grip for easy handling and features an easy to see viewfinder. Features include an automatic flash and zoom lens. The user has a range of film products available for specialized uses.

Polaroid enthusiasts may find using these cameras a delight. Many had given up on photography once they ran out of Polaroid's instant film. Digital and film photography do not give the instant gratification of this type of film. Digital systems can be complex and hard to master for someone who is not savvy about technology.

One of the attractions of digital photography is seeing in the viewfinder how your picture will turn out. Instant film goes one step farther. You have the actual picture in your hand minutes after the film was exposed. When the quality of the product is as fine as this film is, you have an all around winner.
