Free firmware has just turned two of Fujifilm’s cheapest mirrorless cameras into instant film shooters, finally bringing back support for printing without an app

Fujifilm is known for both its mirrorless cameras and its line of instant film cameras – but thanks to a free firmware update, two of Fujifilm’s most affordable mirrorless cameras can now print directly to Instax printers. The Fujifilm X-M5 and X-T30 III have gained a handful of new Instax features in a firmware update launched on June 4, while new X-E5 firmware doesn’t add features but fixes minor bugs.

The Fujifilm X-M5 and X-T30 III could already print images to an Instax printer, but the process required using apps to transfer photos from the camera to the printer. With the firmware update, however, the mirrorless cameras have gained the ability to print directly from the camera’s playback menu without messing with apps.
