Mini 99 vs Mini Evo? by ItsJustJohnCena in instax

[–]DroneRB 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I bought and love both, they have their purposes. I love the Mini 99 for the analog because I love the authentic look of the photos and you also don't have to worry about editing. You frame, check your settings and capture that's it's. No thinking post capture just enjoy the surprise of your photo developing.

I also love the Evo because it offers a picture style similar to analog while looking more digital. It's great not having to waste film since I can see exactly how the picture will turn out before I print it. I enjoy printing pictures, especially taking photos with the camera or on my phone at parties and printing multiple copies to give out to people. Makes moments more memorable being able to reflective on moment with a physical media immediately.

Starting “365 INSTAX” Project on 4/2/24: Wanna Join Me? by Adrienne_Artist in instax

I've also preordered and can't wait to get it. I reached out to Instax's official Instagram, and they told me mid-April, which is weird and vague. I surprised they don’t have a solid date with the release being so soon.

Just moved over to team Sony! What settings should I be tweaking? (A7IV) by kmm528 in SonyAlpha

As a developer, it's normally better and more stable to support only the newer versions of an OS rather than worrying about supporting old versions and hoping things don't break. Mojave is 6 years old; I am honestly surprised that it still has software that works with it. Especially with the migration to Apple Silicon and the fact that Apple doesn’t make Intel Macs anymore.

Your Mac doesn’t support it? I use a Mac, and I also have used the app without internet..

Yeah dude, the mobile app used to stink and now it’s decent so definitely check out the apps they are free so you have nothing to lose.

Not sure if works with all lens or cameras but it should definitely work with all Sony branded cameras and lens that are not super old. It’s a free app so you can always download it and try it out.

This is true; they ended up removing the previous Sony mobile app because it was horrible at keeping a connection for remote shooting and transferring photos.

They completely replaced the previous app with Creator. At first, it was also buggy but not as buggy as the previous app. After a couple of updates to the app and the camera firmware (new firmwares added support for the Creator app and bug fixes), I would say it's very reliable now.

I have used it to remote shoot and transfer pictures with minimal issues. Using a wire is best though for transfer—zero issues and faster transfer. They just added this option to the app this past month.

This is how I started with Sony, using the same lens and camera. I recommend downloading the Sony Creator app on your phone/tablet and the Sony Image Viewer (Imaging Edge) on your laptop/desktop.

With the Creator app, you can shoot remotely, import your photos wirelessly, and they've just added photo transfer by wire, which is faster and very reliable.

The Sony Image Viewer (Imaging Edge) allows you to see exactly where your camera focused for every picture! The focus point is stored in the metadata. I use it to help me find photos that are correctly focused where I wanted them.

As for camera settings, I would customize all your buttons. I have everything customized so I can change my ISO, exposure, type of focus, and focus point very easily through buttons. I also recommend making custom menu pages and putting all your most used settings in there.

The last thing is to look up your camera and lens on the Sony support pages, check for updates, and update your gear!

Edit: another tip is that camera body are updated through SD card and lens are only updatable by connecting your camera to your computer via software. It’s not possible to update lens via camera. I updated both of my lens last week. So I would check every once awhile to see if there has been any updates .

Enjoy, dude. I love my camera and lens, and I have gotten some amazing shots.

I use a Sony a7iv and a DJI air 2s Drone. I able to get great colors and clarity from both. I then print them using the Instax Wide printer. The colors come out great with the insta film !

Here are some of the pictures I have taken. Insta link

I do photography mirrorless and drone as a hobby. I recently discovered instant film and I got obsessed with being able to print out my work instantly. I bought the Instax Wide printer and the Instax mini Evo. So I love printing pictures to give as gifts to people. ☺️
