Fujifilm Instax Pal 2 review – great toy, shame about the camera
The latest Instax toy camera is a lot of fun, but is it worth the money? The post Fujifilm Instax Pal 2 review – great toy, shame about the camera appeared first on Amateur Photographer .
The Fujifilm Instax Pal 2 is a compact camera with a design reminiscent of vintage film models, but primarily serves as a 'toy' camera for young people to capture and share photos. Priced at $170 (or £145), it features a 10MP sensor and a 28mm equivalent f/2.2 lens, though the tiny sensor size (4.8 x 3.6mm) makes it less impressive than those of previous Instax devices.
The camera boasts a range of 30 image effects, a 1.3in 170k-dot screen, and an optical viewfinder, along with automatic exposure settings, face detection, and an 'Instax animation' mode for shooting 10 frames at 2.5fps. Connectivity options include smartphone integration, but its limited internal memory (100 photos) and restrictive frame-saving mechanism make it frustrating for users.
