Fujifilm Instax Mini Stripe

The Fujifilm Instax Mini Stripe is an instant film. It is a special version of the Instax Mini Film*. The film is manufactured by Fujifilm in a factory in its native Asian country of Japan.

The instant film is designed for the Instax Mini format. The size of an image is about that of a credit card. 62 x 46 mm is taken up by the actual image on the instant film surface. The rest is filled by the frame. It is currently the smallest instant format on the market.

In this edition, the frame is not just white. The frames are printed with colorful stripes. This edition of the color film has no other special features.

Shortly after the shutter is released, the camera ejects the image and development begins. As if out of nowhere, the image appears within a few minutes. No further steps are required. Shaking the image to speed up the development process is not necessary.

Film format

The Fujifilm Instax Mini Stripe can be used with cameras in the Fujifilm Instax Mini family. It can also be used with Lomography and Leica instant cameras for the same film format. The color film cannot be used with the old Polaroid cameras.

One box of the film contains a cassette with ten instant pictures. The unexposed images are sensitive to light. Therefore, under no circumstances should they come into contact with light before being photographed. Opening the camera before all the pictures have been taken should be avoided at all costs.

Unlike Polaroid film, there is no battery in the film cassette. So when you have taken the cassette out of the camera, you can simply throw the plastic cassette into the yellow bag and do not have to take out a battery first.

In addition to the color film, there is also a black and white film with the Instax Mini Monochrome*.
