INTRODUCTIONThe Fuji Instax Mini 90 Neo Classic is a nice, feature rich, instant camera, and is very fun to use. Made in China by Fujifilm since 2013, it uses 2"x3" Instax Mini 10 exposures cartridges. BEST SUITED FOR:
PERSONAL NOTESCompared to other instant camera, this one has more options. Image quality and versatility cannot compare to a Horseman 4x5 with a polaroid back, but for the size, it's really good. Like other Instax cameras, you can lighten or darken the image and force the flash on or off. There is also a macro mode, a tripod mount, and a self-timer. Other modes include, group shot, action shots, infinity focus for landscapes, multiple exposures, and bulb mode. It's easy to be creative with this camera. Image quality of all Instax cameras is way better than the new batches of Polaroid film. Clean images, processed in your hands while you watch, a very nice experience. The camera has 2 shutter buttons, so it's easy to shoot in both portrait and landscape orientations. It uses a small rechargeable battery which lasts for months and, thanks to Fuji engineers, they taught that you might want to change the battery without changing the film. The viewfinder is small, but very bright and clear. In macro mode, be aware of the parrallax between finder and lens. CONCLUSIONThis is probably the best party camera ever. An instant camera in a world of cell phones, it's guaranteed attention and fun! For an instant camera, it's not too big or bulky, and it has a lot of features, while still being easy to use. It's also nicely designed, it's a beautiful object, and did I mentionned, very fun to use! If you have some fun money to spend, get one. PHOTO SAMPLESVERDICT:
