The popular Instax Square just got an overhaul. The Fujifilm Instax Square 2 adds moody colors to instant film with the flick of a switch
The Instax Square 2 brings a simple design, zone focusing, and a clever built-in filter set to instant film
Fujifilm has refreshed its popular Instax Square camera with the launch of the Instax Square 2, adding a creative twist to instant film photography. The updated square-format shooter offers moody colors through built-in blue and orange filters, easily switched with a simple dial. Announced after a three-year hiatus since the last square-format model, the Instax Square 2 fills the gap left by the discontinued SQ40.
Despite featuring a larger film format, the camera maintains a chunkier design compared to Instax Mini series models, weighing 450g or 15.9 ounces. Powered by replaceable AA batteries, the Square 2 is priced at $119.95 in the US and $139.99 in Canada, making it more affordable than its predecessor, the Instax SQ40. The camera's simplicity extends to its automatic features, including fully automatic exposure and a non-removable flash.
However, photographers must manually adjust focus using the lens's dial. The introduction of the Instax Square Haze film complements the camera, offering a softer look with reduced contrast and a softer overall appearance. Priced at $18.99 per pack, the new camera and film are set to begin shipping before the end of October.
