FUJIFILM announced the launch of the FUJIFILM instax mini Link 2 Smartphone Printer, available from 22nd June 2022. Featuring a variety of new, unique features designed to encourage creativity, instax mini Link 2 includes customisable frames and image colour modes that help enhance the mood of an image.
instaxAiR is an exciting new feature for instax mini Link 2, taking interactivity and personalisation to a whole new level by allowing the printer to be a tool to draw “in the air” and apply the effects directly to the print. Simply hold the device’s feature button to create bubbles, petals, neon, spray paint, or a glitter look whilst aiming the side LED to start drawing in the air.
What is drawn in the air will then appear on the print preview via the free downloadable app. Users of the instaxAiR feature can even record a video of the drawing and share the moment as a printable QR code that appears on the print. The QR code can be scanned to view the video, download it, or share on social media.
“instax mini Link 2 encourages image makers to express themselves creatively through their prints,” said Shin Udono, Senior Vice President, Imaging Solutions, FUJIFILM Europe. “With highly innovative, fun, and interactive features like instaxAiR, we’re establishing new ways to connect with and inspire instax users as they create their images.”
Other key features of the instax mini Link 2 include the ability to customise instax mini prints with image modes, design frames, stickers, and more via the app. Users can choose between two image colour modes – instax-Rich Mode for deeper, enhanced colours and instax-Natural Mode for a more original look. Smartphone images can also be enhanced with artistic filters or by adjusting brightness, contrast, and saturation to each image. Users also can combine up to eight pictures into a single instax print collage.
Compact, lightweight, and finished with a striped texture, instax mini Link 2 transfers a print in about 15 seconds and supports continuous printing, capable of printing around 100 instax mini prints per charge, seamlessly via Bluetooth2.
In addition to smartphone compatibility, instax mini Link 2 is also compatible with the FUJIFILM X-S10 mirrorless digital camera, allowing professional photographers to send their images directly from the camera to the printer.
Accompanying the launch of the instax mini Link 2 will be the new instax mini Spray Art Instant Film, featuring a colorful rainbow spray design that reflects light. It’s the perfect complement to the instaxAiR feature, or fun on its own, making any special image pop with added colour.
instax mini Link 2 will be offered in Soft Pink, Clay White and Space Blue, and will be available for pre-order on 15th June in Amazon, Jessops and Wex, and purchase at wider retailers on 22nd June for £114.99.
The instax mini Spray Art Instant Film will also be available for purchase on 22nd June via the FUJFIILM e-Shop and at wider retailers for £8.99.
