I tested out the Instax Mini 40 from Fujifilm a few weeks ago which was sent to me for review. Despite its retro looks, the Mini 40 incorporates the latest technology into the camera. My five year old was very keen to test out the camera too, so I allowed him to take a few shots himself. He found it easy to operate and developed quite a few photos himself. I love that the Instax cameras are so easy to use. You snap in the film, switch on the camera and create a pic instantly.

The Mini 40 is powered by two AA-batteries (included), and with a weight of only 330g (without batteries, strap and film) the camera is extremely portable. As an additional accessory and to compliment the camera’s style, Instax has also released a stylish black camera case with stitching detail and a shoulder strap. Safely tucked into the case, the Mini 40 is ready for any picnic, party or road trip.
