Fujifilm announced the launch of a new mobile printer that uses its larger Instax wide format film. The Instax Link Wide smart phone printer is similar to the existing Instax Mini Link idea: connect your phone via Bluetooth and use the app to edit and print your own Polaroid style snapshots from the camera roll.
Instax Wide film is much larger than Instax Mini-it is about the size of two credit cards side by side. This means that your Link Wide printouts may not be as easy to carry in your wallet as Instax Mini photos, but they should be easier to view and use for other purposes.
The Link Wide printer is also compatible with the X-S10 mirrorless camera launched by Fujifilm last year, allowing you to print directly without a mobile phone. Of course, you can print them by uploading photos taken by other cameras to your phone and then uploading them to the Instax Link app.
Fujifilm said that the Link Wide printer can print about 100 Instax on a single charge. There are two printing modes, rich and natural, allowing you to choose between “bright and immersive or saturated and classic” color output, as well as the ability to edit images in the app by cropping or adding text.
Fujifilm will release the Instax Link Wide smartphone printer at the end of this month, priced at US$149.95. The company also introduced a new black border Instax Wide film, priced at $21.99 per pack of 10 films.
