So I wanted to write really quickly about an experience I recently had with my Fujifilm Instax SP-1. I’d like to preface with saying that my experience is not necessarily a unique one, but one that I’d like to share regardless.
So first, a bit of backstory.
Fujifilm will announce the rumored Instax Share SP-3 square printer on October 25.
I own, use and love these little printers. Especially when travelling, it’s a great tool that can help to “break the ice” with locals and they will be more than happy to be photographed.
We have a dedicated Instax Smartphone Printer for travels thread on our forum.
And now Fuji, please Instax Share SP-W1 (Wide) printer!

A few months ago, my brother came to visit. It was a special time because I had not seen him in so long. He was also brought his three boys. Adding my two “little men” and myself to the party, our total soon grew to seven. Boy, were we rolling deep!
Humor aside, I wanted something special to document the occasion. Going out on a limb, I chose to photograph most his trip on the Fujifilm Instax Mini 90 as well as Instax Mini film. I had to buy the system since I didn’t own the camera or the film. Thank goodness for price matchinI.
I did not know how capable the film and camera would turn out to be. After over 800 images, and a lot of research, here are the TOP Ten things I have learned:
Fujifilm describes their Instax film as “…an ISO 800 credit-card-size integral daylight color film designed for use with Fujifilm Instax mini cameras. This glossy film yields superb results under both daylight and electronic flash conditions. Though small, its improved picture quality and greater ease of use make it ideal for snapshots and portraits. Furthermore, it’s easy to-file-and-carry size makes it an excellent choice for documentary or archival purposes, as well as a wide variety of other applications.”

Ok, I knew it… not much time to take care of my hang-over after my birthday party yesterday. Anyway, lots of coffee, and I’ll be fit in time for the live blogging on April 19 :)
In the meantime, nokishita just confirmed the announcement of GF110 and GF23 on April 19, as well as Instax Aquare SQ10.
They also mention the INSTAX SQUARE WW 1 (Square film).

Just a little leak for you guys to give you a better idea of the size of the upcoming Instax Square SQ10 prints.
Interesting to note, the original image (which I had to cover to keep the source of the leak anonymous) was printed in black and white. This can mean that there will be also a monochrome Instax Square film (like the monochrome Instax Mini film). But consider that the Instax SQ10 will be a hybrid digital/film camera, so it might be possible to transfer images taken with the camera to the Instax Square SQ10 printer, and print it from there, just like we do with a regular Instax Share Printer.
The big announcement party for the new GF 110mm F2, GF 23mm F2 and Instax Square will start soon (April 19).
I’m ready… feel free to join the Live Blogging here on FujiRumors :)
stay tuned…

Whops… seems I mixed up something yesterday regarding the Instax Square rumors. Sorry, I’m going to correct it today :)
2 days ago I’ve reported about the first leaked image of the Fujifilm Instax Square SQ10. The image showed a LCD screen on the back and 6 buttons.
I’ve immediatly contacted sources, who confirmed our suspects: the Instax SQ10 is a digital/film hybrid instax camera. In fact, sources also told me that the Instax SQ10 will have a microSD card slot.
During the talk with a source, I also aksed if there will be other Instax Square versions. The source confirmed, and promised me an image for the day after of the Instax SQ… and so it did.
I’ve shared the image of the Instax SQ here on FujiRumors yesterday, and for some mysterious reason I told you it will be hybrid camera.
But actually the source never said this. It only send me the picture of another Instax Square version (the Instax SQ), without adding any comment. So, when yesterday I wrote you it will be hybrid, the source was so kind to contact me again today and tell me I’d better correct that. Only the Instax Square SQ10 will be hybrid. The Instax SQ instead will be film only.
And btw, the source added another detail: the Instax Square SQ10 will have USB-charging (in addition to the micre-SD card slot)
ok… now I think it’s time for me for a little break. I’m going to grab my dog, my camera, and go out a bit ;)
