It’s Instax Time

In the last few days, I’ve shared here on FujiRumors the first images that surfaced on the web (on facebook) of the Instax Square SQ10. After the leak, I’ve investigated further, and informed you that the Instax Square cameras will have a microSD card slot and be a digital/film hybrid.

I also asked sources if there will be other Instax Square versions, and they confirmed. For example, there will be also the Instax SQ (in addition to the SQ10).

One source in particular promised me to grab a camera and share an image for all of us… and so it did today. This is of course exclusive for FR-readers, so you won’t find it anywhere else on the web. But you are free to spread the word on forums/websites etc… if you don’t mind the watermark ;)

The Instax Square SQ10 will be a hybrid digital/film camera, with microSD card slot. The SQ instead will have a useful selfie-mirror, that sits right under the “Fujirumors” logo.

Btw, in case you missed yesterday’s update: As pointed out by instax_square on their instagram “it’s not the first time Fujifilm combined a digital camera with an Instax Camera. Fujifilm Finepix PR21(1999) vs Fujifilm Instax Square SQ10 2017)”

stay tuned,

Instax Goes Hybrid: Fujifilm INSTAX Square Will have a Micro SD Card Slot – UPDATE: Fujifilm Confirms This Rumor :)

Share

UPDATE: Fujifilm just confirmed this rumor on their instagram :) They write: “instax_squareIt’s not the first time Fujifilm combined a digital camera with an Instax Camera. Fujifilm Finepix PR21(1999) vs Fujifilm Instax Square SQ10 2017)”

Just yesterday I’ve shared the first images that originally leaked on facebook by a Taiwanese store (copied on instagram later on).

Anyway, the images show the cute Instax SQ10 printer, which, btw, will not be the only Instax Square printer Fujifilm ;) . No big deal, we are used to Fujifilm launching several variations of Instax products (including Hello Kitty versions).

What made all of us curious, was the huge LCD screen on the back, which seemed to indicate that the camera could be a digital/film hybrid.

So I did my homework, and now I can tell you that the Instax Square camera will have a MicroSD card slot. So it seems your images can be stores digitally. If this is correct, then I have mixed feelings about it. I mean, part of the film-charm is that you snap your image, and whatever comes out of the box, that’s it: unique!

and btw… if the Taiwanese stores leaks further images, I’ll let you know ;)
