Fujifilm Instax Square SQ1 review: Instant camera good only for enthusiasts

amazed to known that instant cameras also come in different variants despite
being a niche products. After recently reviewing the Fujifilm Instax Mini 11
(review), I got my hands-in the Instax Square SQ1, which is another
instant camera but aimed at entirely different audience compared to the former.
Successor to the Instax Square SQ6, the Square SQ1 is a square-shaped instant
camera that is touted be a better imaging device compared to commonly available
instant cameras like the Instax mini 11.
In terms
of design, the Instax SQ1 has a
minimal profile and it looks like an instant camera from all sides. It is,
however, a bit large for an instant camera and weights around 500g with the
film. Its big size and heavy weight makes it unsuitable for one hand operations
but these are the only deterrents in terms of design and the camera otherwise
looks appealing.

Therefore, it ruins the picture quality in good light conditions. Read More
