The latest "Cheki" evolved into "good cotton removal" of instant cameras and printers: Product Review

Contrary to the negative theory, the camera film is not easily extinct.Kodak has announced that it has revived one of the most popular products of the company's film, EKTACHROME, and will sell the reprinted version of the black -and -white film, "Neo Pan 100 Acrosii", which was also popular with Fujifilm.

However, not only professionals and artists are hungry for "developed photos."Instant cameras and printers are also born one after another.

So Fujifilm came to this competition on Instax Mini Liplay.Like the successive "Instax" series, it is a pocket -sized instant camera that can use a credit card -sized instant film.

The lens is made of glass, and the mini -printer works alone.If you use the app, you can print photos taken with smartphones.The QR code has been suggesting a function that allows you to embed audio in photos, but this is not so amazing.This point will be described later.

Proper because of hybrid

LIPLAY is a hybrid instant camera.Unlike most Instax (check), you can check the photos taken on the LCD monitor and decide whether to "print" the film.No one prints a photo that someone has closed and is no longer wasted film.In this regard, it will be much more advantageous in the long term than the model such as "Cheki" Instax Mini 90 ", which is printed as soon as it is taken.

Nevertheless, what I like most about the functions of the LCD monitor is the animation displayed in the print, rather than being able to check the photos.At almost the same speed as the photo appears from the camera itself, the image shown on the monitor is scrolled in the direction of the printing mouth and disappears.It's fun to feel like moving from digital to real world.

The image quality of the photo printed on LIPLAY was surprisingly clear, and I felt it was better than the image quality printed on Instax mini 90.However, LIPLAY has some lack of additional functions on other Instax.For example, there is no double exposure mode or close -up mode.

Fortunately, there is a way to set exposure compensation.Instax photos tend to cause black crushes and highlights of white.For this reason, according to the shooting scene, the dark part is used to brighten the dark part or the bright part is darkened.

The LIPLAY body is rounded, easy to fit into your hand, and is just in the pocket.There are three types of colors: elegant black, stone white, and brush gold.

The design is simple and simple.There is a power button on the side, and there are three shortcut buttons used to select a frame or filter next to it.There are dozens of frames that can be printed in photos, from heart to deer horns.

You can record the sound (but it's troublesome)

Instax mini liplay can also be recorded.It may seem cool to hear that.A magical photo that appears in Harry Potter comes to mind.Unfortunately, to use audio, you have to download smartphone apps or scan QR code.
