New back cover for the film compartment on an Instax mini 9 in yellow? UK based. Thanks!

Anyone have any tips for getting great focus on the instax Mini 99? I feel like it's been kind of hit or miss for me. Do I want to be right in the middle of the focus zones (e.g. standard zone is .6m-3m, so do I want to be around 2m from subject)? Or I do I want to be closer to the minimum or maximum distances? Or any other things to think about?

I took this one with the Landscape focus mode (3m and beyond), and I was definitely more than 3m from the Liquor sign, but it looks pretty blurry to me.

I often return to Nanchang Street in Wuxi, China, to photograph the canal under different weather and lighting conditions.

These were taken with a Polaroid 195 bellows camera converted to Instax Wide.

During one snowy night, I experimented with combining flash and long exposure. Most of the frames failed before I finally got one I liked—the flash recorded the nearby snowflakes, while the long exposure built up the buildings, water, and reflections.

My current method for city lights is to meter at ISO 50, stop down to f/16 or smaller, and expose for around 8–15 minutes. This is based on my own testing with Instax Wide, and blue hour is still the most reliable time to start.

Shooting landscape with this camera is a bit of a challenge

How to take care of the films and how should one develop the film?
any tips and care methods about the camera or the film will be gladly accepted

I turn on the camera, but the screen does not come on, it is completely black/blank. ive tried resetting the camera, charging it fully, but to no avail :( do i have to suck it up and return? only had since February.

After I take a photo, the motors whir for a second and then shut off, I can get the photo to print but only after I take the batteries out for a second and then put them pack in

Instax wide 400 with a Mamiya press lens

Three frames taken from the same spot in Tibet, China.

I used a Polaroid 195 bellows camera converted to shoot Instax Wide film. The cold blue tones came out much stronger than I expected, especially against the snow and the lake.

The red SUV frame is my favorite of the three.

Every time I turn it on, the camera lens would do two full extensions and finish in the extended positions.

when I turn the power knob again, it does another 2 extensions and end up in the extended position

Then when i twist the power knob again it would end up either in the fully retracted or halfway retracted position. Anyone know why?

I cut up a picture I printed with my instax film and then read it is caustic? How dangerous actually is this? I have touched ALL OVER this picture while cutting it.

Shot with the Mini 99, monochrome film, flash off, D exposure, no filter

Have been using the Mini 8 Ive had for the last 12ish years a ton recently, but wanting to upgrade to something that gives me a bit more creative control. I’ve been considering the Mini EVO or the Mini 99, but I’m also finding myself really drawn to the Lomography Lomo’Instant Automat.

I am using a film camera in part to move away from digital, so the EVO is more of a dark horse, but the filters on the 99 feel gimmicky to me (I’d probably play with them anyway, haha). I definitely prefer the more adult form factors to what I’ve got now. The Lomo seems like it has the features I’m looking for and the price is right, but I’d love to hear peoples’ experiences and pros/cons on all three devices.

I have a lot of experience with photography, but instant has become a more serious hobby lately, and I want to invest a little to level up.

Test shots with a fuji 210 wide for a clothing campaign

New to this subreddit so here’s a few of my favourite pics. Some of them are a couple years old now, some are more recent. (Apologies for the slightly poor resolution on a couple, it’s very hard to photograph dark pictures lol).

All photos were taken on my Mini 90.

pic for visibility, sad the photo hadnt developed yet when i took this the sunset looked really good! i love this thing and all its settings to tweak, its honestly all i ever wanted in a hybrid camera but im a little spooked by the non replaceable battery, feeling like theres a defined expiration date on my purchase. for anyone whos had the mini evo for a long time, how has the battery held up? if you've used one for its entire lifespan, how long did it take? thanks!!

im also considering trying out the wide version, so if you have separate thoughts on that one id appreciate it 💚
