Instax Mini 9 Not Working Red Light

It fits well with my Instax Mini Evo

I was in search of an Instax camera as a creative outlet and to put a retro spin on my photography hobby. I'd looked at the popular Fuji Instax line of cameras, and even had a Mini 90's in a cart, ready to purchase... but I kept having one nagging question in the back of my mind that kept me from pulling the trigger. This is pretty automatic, and you're stuck at F/12.7. Is this going to really give me the creative control I'm looking for, or would this be better for parties and grabbing quick-memories? Well, I'm not a teenager. I don't really go to too many parties, and the novelty to my friends of an instant photo is a great for sharing, but it doesn't really fulfill my personal goals. However... F/5.7 for lower light and/or shallow depth of field and Manual Focus, coupled with shooting a kind of camera that I'd never shot before? THAT sounds more like what I was looking for! First up... it's expensive. You could buy a Fuji Mini 90, a Fuji 300 wide, a Fuji SP-1 Instax Printer, AND more than 100 shots of film for less than you can buy this one camera by itself... and it doesn't even include a neck strap. That's straight-up daunting, if I'm being honest. On that fact alone, I couldn't recommend this camera for someone who just wants to shoot the Instax Mini format for fun. It took me a week to really mull that over. Am I glad I made the decision I did? Absolutely. This camera has taught me to slow down, compose, and consider. Each shot matters, so I care and think more on every one. This camera WILL take more skill/time and trial/error to get quick shots in focus than other automatic options. Vignetting occurs at high aperture settings. I'm running out of characters B&H will let me use, so let's wrap up this up with pros/cons: Pros: Manual Focus, f 5.6, glass lenses, fun bonus aperture (mine was a clover!), hidden flash, optional ND filters, close up filters, and lens hood Cons: Manual Focus, expensive, light-meter not very dependable in bright light

This film is so easy to snap into my Instax Mini. It has surprisingly good color balance, even in low light. Great film. I highly recommend it!

Well, friends, although Instax MINI we couldn't consider a severe photographic medium, it still makes us happy, as well as our children. The Black and white film, in my opinion, fits the best for portraits. Especially with natural light — but this way you should switch off the flash, and set your camera on a tripod or something like that to make sure it's fixed motionless for long exposure. Try soft light from the window or even studio lighting. And you're going to be amazed with the results.

This film is expensive, but B&H has some of the cheapest film for the mini Instax cameras.

9ae Nice.

Being able to light my face at 4 feet at 9% power means that I'm pretty sure this bad boy is able to light my face through time and space and beyond. Also tungsten or daylight. Whew.
