Neo Classic Instax Mini 90 Films

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

Absolutely fantastic strap. I use it frequently between my Instax Mini 90, Instax Wide, Espio Zoom 105, and any other of my small cameras in my collection for walkabout duty. I do wish the strap was a little longer to make it easier to wrap around my large wrists (I can't quite get the magnet in place to make a secure connection when wrapped around my wrist).

I've had the instax mini films for a while and have never been disappointed. The wide version is the same great quality and super cute for scrapbooking (if you're into that). I loved using it with the Fujifilm INSTAX Link printer.

Giving this item 5 stars, why? excellent fit for the instax mini 8 films and quality is nice. Pictures stay in place, doesn't fall off from the compartments, and overall a good product. If you're in the market for this, highly recommended

Fits my neo-classic instant camera like a glove. Quality is nice too.

It fits well with my Instax Mini Evo

Well made, handy pouch, hold my instax neo camera with extra film or my 105mm lens while hiking around all day, you can hold a bottle of water in it, I have two of these, protected well during off and on rain as well

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

All of the expired films I've ever purchased through Instax has still always performed just as well as the new stuff. Always recommend!

These cute little pictures that go with the Neo Classic can get expensive if not purchased in quantity. If you plan to use it very much, get 10 double boxes and just go for it!
