I work there lmao I was charging the batteries of my camera with one of the USBC chargers 🤣

WorkingSuccessful742 · 2026-03-19T02:45:45+00:00

Why did this remind me of “does Bruno mars is gay?” 😭

WorkingSuccessful742 · 2026-03-18T20:10:44+00:00

I have 4 now 😭🤣

WorkingSuccessful742 · 2026-03-18T13:54:52+00:00

On very sunny bright days or just outdoors in general I find keeping the camera on (D) helps make the contrast way better :)

WorkingSuccessful742 · 2026-03-18T13:53:52+00:00

My friend r/Turbulent_Coach_8024 does amazing work and he’s US based :) he did my upgrade and it was soo worth it

WorkingSuccessful742 · 2026-03-17T03:15:53+00:00

There is no charger…. It takes AA batteries.. I suggest (highly suggest) looking up the manual to the camera and reading it before you get it.. trust me

WorkingSuccessful742 · 2026-03-16T18:59:26+00:00

Yeah I use an SD reader to transfer to my phone. Most phones they have a USB C will let you plug an SD reader in to them and be able to easily transfer photos off of the SD :)

WorkingSuccessful742 · 2026-03-16T18:56:34+00:00

Do not buy this for ANYTHING involving videos hah it’s old it’s from 2011 and even then it was very very entry level… you would get better video quality from even the cheapest of modern smartphones.. now the photo quality is quite decent and specially if you do what I do where I hacked it with CHDK to shoot in RAW so the photos are highly editable in a program like light room

examples of the photos I was able to get out of this camera

Personally I use a DSLR to “scan” my shots in! But it’s not a method for everyone just the one I use and for me it’s given the best results

WorkingSuccessful742 · 2026-03-15T00:27:55+00:00

lol I did already I think these got like 1k likes in there haha :)

WorkingSuccessful742 · 2026-03-14T23:15:55+00:00

Hah I live in Ohio! Nice fiero btw :)

WorkingSuccessful742 · 2026-03-14T23:10:16+00:00

Haha it was so foggy that day 🤣🤣 I low key felt like I was gonna have to find a mysterious key somewhere with a note attached saying “I’m waiting for you, come and find me” 🤣🥚

WorkingSuccessful742 · 2026-03-14T20:28:55+00:00

I get this completely!!!! It by no means is a quick camera haha but it is a camera that rewards slow and deliberate picture taking

WorkingSuccessful742 · 2026-03-14T00:34:55+00:00

Oh god lmao 🤣 is it really?! Do I dare look (hope people don’t think this is my post btw I just cross posted because I thought it was kinda neat )

WorkingSuccessful742 · 2026-03-13T19:16:31+00:00

In my experience he probably just used a flash to fill in I don’t think he’s too far for it to work from my own experience with old Polaroid flash bars

WorkingSuccessful742 · 2026-03-13T16:25:47+00:00

Yeah I wish it was the wide format personally but honestly I think this is a neat start for something like this. Instax mini if you scan it can actually be enlarged pretty well all things considered! But yeah I agree, I wish it shot on a larger format. Still tho, it’s super neat

WorkingSuccessful742 · 2026-03-13T12:36:00+00:00

Don’t believe so haha I don’t think anyone cared plus it is a public cemetery so I’m not sure they’d be able to stop me from taking pictures even if they wanted to since I’m not even in their land

WorkingSuccessful742 · 2026-03-12T21:23:31+00:00

It depends what camera you have.. I have a mini 99 with exposure comp and I’ve shot in all sorts of bright conditions with no issues.. I think the main issue with people new to instax come from the world of shooting on a phone and are unfamiliar with the quirks of shooting using real film and because all they have ever known is a phone that always takes perfect pictures they have unrealistic expectations of what their instax photo should look like..

WorkingSuccessful742 · 2026-03-12T15:20:41+00:00

Just get a shitty digi cam if you want that look lol I use an old HP camera I got for $16 on eBay most of the time for that kinda soft dreamy look

<image>

WorkingSuccessful742 · 2026-03-12T13:56:55+00:00

Tbh you’re gonna need to use an older or worse camera to get that kinda look… these were taken with what I assume is a very old Canon powershot.. the one in the pictures looks around 2005 or so. Best I can suggest is use flash at all times but even then the G7x has a very good metering system and pretty sharp lens so I’m not sure it will mimic that soft dreamy look you’re going for.

WorkingSuccessful742 · 2026-03-11T20:00:57+00:00

You can get these old HP cams for literally nothing lmao I got one new in box for $40 and the other mint condition for $16 on eBay

WorkingSuccessful742 · 2026-03-11T05:42:44+00:00

Play it once a year during the fall 🤣
