Japan Camera Hunter: Review of the Instaflex TL70

The film camera buff site, Japan Camera Hunter, has a review of the Instaflex TL70 instant film camera. The camera uses the Instax mini film, but gives you the feel of a 120 roll film TLR. The camera features glass lenses, though apparently focus is soft according to one commenter on the site. The reviewer felt it was a unique, attention grabbing camera that gets conversations rolling. The TL70 has metering, manual exposure settings and a tripod socket, making this a fun camera for the serious film photographer who just wants something less serious without giving up control. The camera has the features of a TLR such as waist level viewfinder, pop up magnifier and sport viewfinder. It retails for around US$350.
