FUJIFILM today announced the latest addition to its popular instax line of instant cameras and smartphone printers with the introduction of its instax WIDE Evo Hybrid Instant Camera (Wide Evo), whose unique hybrid format combines the excitement and satisfaction of traditional instant camera functionality with the capabilities of digital imaging technology to select, share, edit and store photo images. Wide Evo takes these capabilities a step further, with the ability to create wide format images that print onto instax WIDE instant film along with a host of other advanced capabilities designed to enhance the photographic image taking experience.
Wide Evo outputs high-quality prints directly from the camera. Images can also be printed from a user’s iOS or Android smartphone camera roll using the free instax WIDE Evo Smartphone App. The app also features remote shooting capabilities and additional image enhancement options. Wide Evo also features a 3.5-inch LCD Monitor on the back of the camera to allow users to select images, add effects, edit, print, and adjust image settings, supported by a built-in Lithium-Ion battery which enables the camera to print up to 100 images per charge, depending on the specific use case.
A Micro SD card slot ensures there is plenty of room to store additional images for later enjoyment (approximately 45 images can be stored in the camera’s internal memory), while the Selfie Mirror helps users nail selfies every time. In addition to the new camera, new accessory and film options have also been introduced.
The instax WIDE Evo Hybrid Instant Camera will retail at a manufacturer’s suggested price of $349.95 USD and will be available for purchase starting February 2025. With its combination of digital versatility and the tactile appeal of instant prints, the instax WIDE Evo Hybrid Instant Camera redefines the instant photography experience.
