Review: Fujifilm Instax 210

Move over Polaroid, there's a new instant camera on the scene!

These days seems like all of the blogging community, artsy tourists and party hard it girls such as Hanna Beth own what seems to be the newest fashion accessory, the Fujifilm Instax Mini or the Instax 210.

I was lucky enough to receive the Instax 210 as a gift from my partner at Christmas and want to share with you my views.


Appearance
As you can see it's of a medium size and made out of plastic, this makes it small enough to fit in your handbag and light enough so you dont feel like you're lugging it around with you. It also comes with a number of accessories, a material cord attachment which enables you to carry it round your neck or shoulder and removable plastic lens that has a slight magnified effect for those closer shots.

Film
This is the film I use for my camera, I was given this brand and dont really know what other options there are. This type seems to work perfect for me.

Performance
The 210 is very easy to set up.
 Firstly you insert 4 AA batteries into the side of the camera, you then unpack the film box and slot it into the back of the camera. You should hear a click when closing the sliding door at the back, you are then ready to go!
Switch the camera on and snap away!

(Please note, to get the right exposure balance for your photos you need to use the black slip of film you receive when taking your first photograph to cover your shots, unless you want over exposed prints of course)



Overall this camera is a great investment if your looking at buying an instant camera and I am very glad to have received one as a gift.
You can buy them from many websites online but I would always advise buying from the manufacturer if you are unsure about quality issues.
