Well done. Great short with interesting content, needed visuals, and engaging pacing.

Could some of those principles not be applied to digital photography? Obviously not the film part, but experimental, imperfect equipment and the like. I've started moving away from "optical perfection" and into weird stuff (like adapting old, imperfect manual lenses).

I have never been interested in photography. I have never been interested in art. I do not go out of my way to find videos about either subject. And yet, you've convinced me to check out your other videos!

Life is too short, nice and talented person can earn for living in more dignified way.

Evo have worse quality when print from memory

No hate to any other companies, I'm a diehard ilford boy and their simplicity kit is very easy to use. It's how I learned. Much faster mixing than 4 hours lol

Wow $300 plus for what looks like a total hot mess of terrible camera design. Hard pass Lomography.

omg shoutout mtl im following

I'll admit, the Lomo'Instant Wide Glass is tempting, but not at that price point! As for the comment about AA batteries, it's so true! I was photographing a War of 1812 event in Midland, Ontario, in full 19th Century civilian garb with my F5, and the batteries died, so I rushed into a grocery store while the battle raged in the streets, got a big pack of batteries and was out in no time at all with a fresh set of batteries.

Nothing about the remote control in the lens cap ?

I know you said you like to eyeball the exposure, but in case you find it useful, there are free lightmeter apps that work well :)

I’ve been pronouncing “lomography” all wrong …I’ve been wanting to try out instant film for a while so thank you for this great video.

For inside shots with the flash on try putting the camera in f 22. It should reduce the the the wash out.

I would love to try shooting either instax square or wide but not having a decent choice of an SLR camera is a complete deal breaker for me. Which is why I end up just shooting a refurbished Polaroid SX-70 converted to shoot 600 film, even though Polaroid film is really expensive and vulnerable to heat, cold, light, dark, time, space, and basically any conditions whatsoever.

I want to say this is a bad camera design, but I don't think it is completely. See from what you said about this camera I can picture many ways they could have fixed many of these issues. Having an option to do everything manually could really improve this camera. I know this is for beginner/intermediate photographers but even just having full control for professionals would be nice. I am a manual SLR kind of film shooter so to me, not having manual shutter/aperture controls and the like make it hard for me to use cameras like this. I recognize this camera is not marketed towards consumers like myself, but to a more casual market segment. However some of the design choices are pretty terrible in some ways. Why only F/8? With a big 90mm that has a film size this big that seems pretty disappointing. Also that tab to open the camera should be on the bottom portion of the camera, not up by the top. I could easily make the mistake of exposing the film if I never saw this camera. The viewfinder as you mentioned is also in a terrible place. Perhaps they could make a viewfinder like Leica did where the focus ring is connected to a linkage where it focuses the viewfinder too. I don't imagine making this an SLR would really be easy so this is a good way around it. Also why not move that to the top? I'm curious Yvonne, who is this camera really pointed at in the market? It seems very large to be a simple point and shoot where a lot of the appeal for those cameras is to be small, (the size may intimidate beginners) and it doesn't have all manual features for an advanced photographer, and it shoots pretty expensive film. The size of the film plus it being instant seems strange although I understand why someone would want that, but can it really compete against the other wide cameras lomo makes? Let me know you're thoughts. Great video as usual.

There's a few posts in Instax groups on Facebook about the distancing and it turns out the markings on the camera are not completely true. I really want it (once it's available again) but will probably have to spend a few packs to calibrate/mark the correct distances on the camera. As well ass adding a viewfinder on the top (centered to the lens),

📷 engagement (i'm lame)

It's sad that film for the old Polaroid Folding cameras is no longer available. Because if it were these toy cameras would not exist. First thing I thought when I saw this camera is "where is the optical rangefinder?". Obviously there is a real need for one of these devices and having it linked to the lens is a problem that was solved over 100 years ago. Then there are the Aperture and Shutter controls, which do not exist. What are we doing with Waterhouse Stops from the 1880's? I would suggest that you tell Lomography that this is not a camera, it's a child's toy that they are charging way too much money for. BTW, I would value this as a 15 USD toy.

You ARE dazzling🎉. For the macro shots, distance is measured from the object to the film plane，not sure if that helps.

Thanks for the review of the new glass version. I have the original and love it. A camera like this is best used as a fun camera with some cool features. A "serious" camera with manual features would cost 3 times as much, which exists in the Mint RF70. Otherwise I think its best using a Fuji camera that can print directly to the other Instax share printers (SP2, SP3). That way you get manual controls and don't waste any film. That's what I do.

2:52 how do eat your film leader and not notice

This is a very questionable review. You showed us mostly awful photos and proceeded to claim you like the camera 😅 Please try the MiNT RF70, if you get the chance!

LOVE THE HUMOR IN THIS VIDEO! THAT ALLEY SHOT CAME OUT DOPE ASF!!💯💯💯

happy new year keep watching ur video in 2025 fans from taiwan

Yvonne, one way around the caveat of the viewfinder, is to put a cold shoe in that position, allowing you to put a small viewer (like linhof, Leica and a few other cameras have), allowing composition at lens axis, horizontally, and if you have a complex viewer like the linhof one, parallax compensation(for the vertical distance).

Yvonne, Lomography doesn't make a "instax Wide" camera...because they make the Lomograflok back for 4x5" cameras, this takes the wide, so no need to make a camera, as the lomograflok can work in most LF cameras, as long as the back can 'spread' wide enough, and you can use the focus spacer (as the film plane is 1-2cm behind the standard one (most double sheet holders)); besides, you are limited to asa 800 anyway, so if you are in bright light, the wide is no good, it would flare like crazy.

Get the MiNT instax cameras.

2025, the year gear failure makes Yvonne crash out...??? Weirder things have happened...

Don Hertzfeldt vibes 🤌

🔥🔥🔥

Instax Wide is a fantastic film, unfortunately the off the shelf camera options are unimpressive or buggy, sorry the Wide Glass was so temperamental for you, I was hoping to see some great shots per your usual. I have a 'hacked' Instax Wide 300 with a Mamiya Universal Press lens mount by Alin of Analogue Studio DC. All functions of the actual camera have been removed except for the eject motor, running aperture, shutter speed, and focusing through the Mamiya lens. My current favorite lens setup is a Mamiya-Sekor 100mm f2.8, and I use a laser "tape measure' mounted on top for my focus distance reading.

They are much to expensive for what basically is a Fuji Instax 100 from ebay at 20$ but new for 200$ because Fuji

Median hourly wage in is 28.75 CAD in Canada, so the camera costs the median Canadian a little more than 13 hours of labor. In the US, the median wage per hour is 23.11 USD, so it costs the median American a little more than 12 hours of labor. So, not great, but a far cry from what Kyle McDougall talks about in the UK, where film is 50% more expensive than in the US, and this camera would cost ~13.5 hours.

Lomography is always a “quiero y no puedo”, a nice try but meh 😩

I just want Fuji to make an *actual* manually controlled instax camera. Almost all the "off-brand" ones are either stupidly expensive or half-assed. If the lomo wide camera were compatible with proper lenses and real controls we've have a second christmas upon us.

For macro mode, are you doing distance from the front of the lens, or distance from the film plane? Focus distances should be measured from the film plane (indicated with a circle with a line through it on the camera body)

You'd think that if they're gonna have a viewfinder that offset, they'd at least put frame lines in the viewfinder....

The flash being too weak to trigger the strobes is a huge bummer. This could be so cool for studio portrait sessions... Macro seems like an overall poorly executed idea? Ideally you'd have a lot of light for F/22 mode, but you can't trigger it. You can't see anything useful through the viewfinder either. Does it at least have a film plane alignment guide??

The 1st story had me dying 😂

Your camera is clearly defective, the lens is quite misaligned and the vignette is crazy high in one of the corners as a consequence. I have one of these cameras, unbranded, quite a bit cheaper than the price of the flick film, and could get good exposures with iso 320 film with the flash at 2 to 3 meters. I also wouldn't recommend using phoenix with it.

Hi! I'd really appriciate your answer to my questions. What settings are you recomending to indoor shooting? With warm lighting (like a roof lamp), no day light. L setting, flash or no flash? And what setting to indoor with some daylight and warm lamps? And whatis your best tips on when to use flash and when not to? Thank you so much in advance!

I love your videos! I feel like you hit every important point about the cameras.

Love the content. Just began my journey into film in August 2024. It's been so much fun so far! Does the link to get some of the film stocks you recommended in this video still work?

yeah ... I'm not gonna bother with threads. hate IG for what it became and now realise everything zuck touches is basically 💩

I would like to see a video from you comparing the mini evo and mini 99 :)

If Paris is the city of Lovers, and London is the city of Bakers, Buenos Aires is the city of dreamers. I love how the buildings and streets began challenging your impression of the city. It is an amazing place to be especially after a rain. Security is a concern as in any large city but not really safety. Typical crime there is petty in nature, a stolen phone or bag when not paying attention. So it is good to be careful without becoming paranoid (many Argentines are a bit paranoid). I have been there dozens of times and never had an issue, but I pay attention. Great video, thanks for sharing.

What 3-5 lenses are best recommended for shooting NYFW? I shoot with Canon R6 mkII.

Found a roll of this that I completely forgot I bought 3-5 years ago 😬 hoping it will still produce some clear images

I just got one - anyone know if it is still micro-usb?? I heard they were getting updated? 😭
