Holding a physical print in my hand takes me back to my childhood bedroom when I’d go through our holiday photo album with my family. I’ve been looking forward to getting my hands on the new Fujifilm Instax Wide 400 for that reason: wide format prints that carry a sense of nostalgia.
It’s the much awaited successor to the 10-year-old Instax Wide 300 — one of the best instant cameras around — which was launched all the way back in 2014. Fujifilm's largest instant camera now has a fresher look in a gorgeous sage green colorway, with a rounded body for better handling. The wide film captures a lot of the scene, and the prints turn out bright and detailed. Easy-to-use with only one button, this retro beast can be used by anyone. There are a few things missing though, like double exposure mode and manual flash control.
