The Lomo'Instant Square Camera Kickstarter is wrapping up within hours. The campaign includes a number of goodies as add-on extras. A set of colour gels will be included as a stretch goal. One of the more useful add-ons is the Instax Mini back, that allows the camera to accept the smaller format instant film. This somewhat future-proofs the camera should Fujifilm discontinue the Square format film for any reason.
The Fujifilm SQ10 digital camera was introduced earlier this year and offers the capability of in-camera printing onto the new square format Instax film. The SQ10 has a few editing controls, such as brightness and some filters, similar to Instagram, such as sepia tone.
In contrast, Lomography is introducing their square camera as the first analogue square format Instax camera.
Also in the analog field, are the Polaroid Originals (formerly Impossible) cameras, including the recently released OneStep2, an updated version of the 1977 classic that takes Type 600 and I-type Polaroid film.
So, whatever you choose, there is a lot of choice out there, so start shooting instant film. You will like it!
