Instax Mini Evo Cinema Camera Launched with Time-Travel-Dial in Super 8 Body

Do you remember when Kodak surprised everyone with that bold, polarizing — and VERY expensive — camera?

Well, it seems that quirky Kodak creation (which, by the way, has only a few but stellar reviews) may have sparked some inspiration over at Fujifilm.

Only this time, Fujifilm appears to be going all out in terms of creativity and experimentation.

Because here is what Fujifilm just announced: the Instax Mini Evo Cinema camera that looks like a Super 8 camera, or more precisly, it’s inspired by the Fujica Single-8.

And just as we told you, it will come with the famous “time-travel” dial, which Fujifilm calls the “Eras Dial”.

Down below you can read all the details about the Instax Mini Evo Cinema Camera.
