Review : Fujifilm Instax Mini 41

 Hi Guys 

Its been awhile how are you? Hope you are well and good. Today on the blog I bring you another Instax review and this one being the INSTAX MINI 41.

First Impressions:

When I first opened the box I loved the colorway and the classic modern look it has , it definitely has a sleek look for sure.

Trying out the Instax mini 41:

I must say although this camera is pretty simple and straight forward , I found it a tiny bit frustrating that some of my images came out blurry , but that is probably because I didn't check the modes I was on, but then I tested it with taking the close up mode in consideration and normal and saw my mistake. I got into the motion of using it and it was fine.. unlike my Instax 40 which I'm still struggling a bit as that one has more modes that I need to figure out. The fact that I don't need to worry about not getting the moment  because of the environment being dark it will capture which is a plus for me I love that !

Final Thoughts:

If you love selfies and portraits this Instax camera would be perfect for you. I really loved that the camera has the feature of adjusting to the shooting environment which is a fav feature - Like I took pictures in a somewhat dark environment and light environments , we went cave golfing and it could capture the moment of the subject as well as picking up the environment as well which I loved. It's also ideal for close up shots especially if you love love selfies. 


Key Features:

  • Close up mode of 30 to 50cm
  • Built in Flash
  • Dedicated Selfie/Close up mode
  • Adjusts Shutter Speed Automatically
  • Automatic Exposure

Retail Price +-R2200

REVIEW : Fujifilm INSTAX SQUARE SQ1

Hi Lovelies ,

I have a very exciting review post to share with you guys , I will be reviewing something very different to beauty products but its something that I've used very much these past few years to capture special moments in my life and also think it is rather fitting with my content  - its the FUIFILM INSTAX SQUARE SQ1


Instax was very kind to send over their Instax camera to test and review and I could not resist and had to take the opportunity. What made me more excited is that the prints are square format (photo picture size 62 x 62 mm). I do own 2 Instax cameras but the print is more smaller and the cameras are different to the SQ1 so I was very keen to see what the Instax SQ1 was all about.

FIRST IMPRESSIONS :

WOW , the colour was absolutely lovely, the colour I received was Terracotta Orange super beautiful and different to the mundane colours you normally see. I also loved the shape I think its very modern looking to fit this day and age.

I received the camera at the perfect moment as my family and I were heading on a mini staycation. 

TRYING OUT THE SQ1 : 

I loved the easy grip when holding , so for the selfie lovers this one is great for you(it has a selfie mirror, making it easier for you to see before capturing your image) , you can capture all the selfie moments without an hassle. I also feel that it captures great in light and dark settings I took a picture of sunrise and sunset and you could see the different hues of colour in the images nicely, no need to worry about changing any settings.


FINAL THOUGHTS :

I honestly loved the experience with the camera , I loved the fact that you can fit more people/surroundings in the square format . It also really captures your surroundings more clearer and offer those that do not like complication tech it has a simple operation which is very straight forward to use "ON" and "Selfie" mode .  If I should be by the means this would be one I would like to purchase. The only thing that I would have loved for the SQ1 is that it would have been awesome if it had self timer like my Instax Mini 70 , but other than that the SQ1 is super simple and effortless , straight forward to use and the image/film quality is great ! 


KEY FEATURES

  • Selfie Mode
  • Auto Exposure
  • Simple Operation

Retail Price in South Africa +/- R1999

Colours Available in the SQ1
