    Thank you ...I'm 70 yrs old now and want prints again . I remember seeing the first prints from a very early Polaroid Land Camera . It's still magic and a wonderful gift to share with others .
    Dear Fuji .. please keep film prices as low as possible.
    Thanks for a great review .

    This is why I love photography. As Chris says, it's all about capturing the moment. It's still a lot of fun looking at printed photos again and again and being excited to see the next one in the box or in an album. I remember as a child, we sometimes had photo-album days on rainy days. We would get all the pictures out of the drawer and we would just have a look at the pictures and laugh etc. It was really cosy and we all liked it.

    People are right though. If they just made a few more better, strategic business move they could CRUSH everyone else.

    I picked up one of these for my wife in February, and this one's an absolute hit. At this point all her friends want one as well, but a mix of hype/popularity and supply chain issues means it's pretty much sold out at most major retailers that carry it. One of the best things about it is the ability to print multiple of the same shot since the shot gets saved to storage.

      Ok, I'm really wondering about the instax pastel model for a smaller kid. I mean, this one looks so analog & nostalgic, and has really good features, but maybe it's to early for her to see it the same way I do. So, maybe instax is a better option at this point...She's really an enthusiast. She has one of these really bulky kids digital cameras... I mean she does really good shots with this... And it's not easy to do it with such cameras, as they are really limited...

    At least there's one working Fujifilm app! That being said, I got the Fujifilm wide printer for Christmas and have been using the app with that and it hasn't been too bad. Bit addicted to "printing" photos out now, been giving them as gifts to friends and family. There's something so different about holding a picture then looking at it on your phone. It's really helped solidify some of my memories of these last few pandemic years too, having printed off photos of some of the few social events we have been able to enjoy in this time. Great to see you feeling better, thanks for everything you do for the Fujifilm community and photography community in general.

    Nice to see you again fit, Chris. I take fotos, most of them to my family because I'm a hunter of feelings.
    I print them to hang on the wall or I sent to my digital frame.
    It's amazing to see how we enjoy of the pictures that were taken in the past.
    They bring us to this moments and remember us where we're going.
    I know that it's too much romantic view of photography but so I see it.

    This is fantastic I love the idea of this camera and I've been waiting for it to come out. I do own the wide Instax printer that has in my opinion better picture quality. But I love what Fuji is doing with this format and instant film. And I agree with your comments 100% that the world is ready to take a step back and enjoy being in the moment and not needing things so digital or instantaneous. This is a perfect companion for that thought process. By the way when I bring my Instax printer to a family gatherings, we can’t get enough of it. The kids love it!

    You got me with that last part Sir!
    As a hobbyist, I'm not really sure why I love taking photos of family members, things around me, landscapes, even strangers I met on the street; especially because I have no financial incentives for doing it. I guess it's a subconscious thing since as a human we can not control the flow of time. So, if time can only flow one way, with photography at least I have a part of that time that I can keep.

    Seems like a fun camera. The big thing for me is the ability to do a quick print out and give to someone you photographed. I doubt I would ever buy this but I might look into mini printers that hooked up to a smart phone. Not sure what is out there but a fun concept to consider. I agree, digital content is becoming passé. I'd love to have a box of tactile photos I could look through to reminisce for nostalgia sake. Much more soulful.
