2nd March 2023 – Today FUJIFILM has launched the new INSTAX MINI 12 Instant Camera. Built with all the best bits of the popular INSTAX MINI instant camera series in mind, plus impressive upgrades, MINI 12 combines a fun aesthetic and enhanced features in a camera designed to fill the world with joy.

With its inflated, bubble design, the INSTAX MINI 12 retains all of its current features fans know and love from the MINI 11 including Close-Up/Selfie Mode and Auto Exposure adjustment capabilities but now with exciting features to bring photos to life such as a new Parallax Correction feature, in which the camera’s viewfinder aligns with the lens whilst using Close-Up Mode ultimately reducing object shifts, resulting in a more aligned photo.

MINI 12 also features automatic flash control, which helps to create beautiful images in both bright or low-light situations. The updated lens structure provides intuitive steps for both powering the camera on and off and accessing the popular Close-Up/Selfie Mode with a simple twist of the lens.

“The INSTAX MINI series has long been an incredibly popular choice to introduce the fun of instant cameras to photography lovers, old and new, thanks to its playful design, ease of use, and affordable price,” said Shin Udono, Senior Vice President, Imaging Solutions, FUJIFILM Europe. “MINI 12 takes this series to the next level with an iconic bubble design that pops with joy and creativity. How you see the world is shaped by the lens you see it through, and MINI 12 brings users a new unique perspective.”

FUJIFILM today also announces the launch of the new INSTAX UP! Smartphone app designed for INSTAX instant photography fans to digitally scan, store, and share their photos in one place.

  • Organise photos by category/list views for easy locating
  • Import photos from other INSTAX apps (INSTAX MINI LINK, INSTAX Link WIDE etc.) into the INSTAX Up!
