Capturing Memories Instantly with Fujifilm Instax Mini 12
In a digital age, the charm of instant photography remains unparalleled, and the Fujifilm Instax Mini 12 is a testament to this. Having used it for several events and casual outings, I am excited to delve into what makes this camera a delightful pick for instant photography enthusiasts.
**Design and Aesthetics: 4.5/5**
The Instax Mini 12 sports a fresh, playful design that’s both eye-catching and ergonomic. Available in a variety of colors, it caters to different tastes. Its lightweight and compact nature make it a convenient carry-along, though the plastic build might not appeal to all.
**Image Quality and Performance: 4/5**
For an instant camera, the Mini 12 offers commendable image quality. The colors are vibrant, and the exposure adjustment works well in various lighting conditions. It might struggle a bit in low light, but that’s a common limitation in instant photography. The added selfie mirror is a fun touch for selfie enthusiasts.
**Ease of Use: 5/5**
This is where the Mini 12 truly shines. Its point-and-shoot simplicity makes it accessible to all ages. The automatic exposure control and flash adjustment are great for beginners, removing the guesswork and making every shot count.
**Film Cost and Availability: 3.5/5**
The ongoing cost of film packs is a consideration for any instant camera. While the Instax Mini film is widely available, the cost per print might add up for frequent users. However, the unique charm of each printed photo often outweighs this concern.
**Battery Life: 4/5**
The battery life is impressive, lasting through multiple film packs on a single charge, though this can vary based on usage patterns. The convenience of a rechargeable battery over traditional AA batteries is a definite plus.
**Overall: 4.2/5**
The Fujifilm Instax Mini 12 is a delightful instant camera that combines style, simplicity, and the joy of instant photography. It’s perfect for capturing spontaneous moments, parties, and creating physical keepsakes on the go. Despite the ongoing cost of film, its ease of use and the fun factor make it a great choice for anyone looking to step into the world of instant photography.

Works great for the sweet little moments of life!
I bought this camera right before my daughters first birthday because I wanted to capture her little moments in a sweet way. I have loved it! The pictures come out great, the camera itself is very pretty, and the case is a wonderful addition. Use is super straight forward. For me personally it was a bit of a splurge but people spend more than this on cameras all the time so it might depend on your situation whether or not it is worth the price

Love this
Love this camera and capturing memories with little Polaroids. This package was so cute. Good value for the price. The image quality is not that of an iPhone/android, it’s a bit blurry comparatively, but that’s honestly to be expected. No complaints from me.

Perfect little camera!
My daughter saved and saved to buy her very own camera. I helped her choose this one specifically because it doesn’t connect to the phone or have the option to delete or print. Simply point and shoot like it was in the old days!
Photos turn out pretty good! She’s learning about lighting and holding the the camera steady. She’s 8 and she’s able to manage changing film and operating on her own so it’s pretty simple.
Some reviews say it didn’t come with all the film but they are not correct- it comes with 2 double packs so yes it has 4 film cartridges but it comes in 2 boxes not 4.
Album and case is are nice quality! She’s brought it everywhere and it’s holding up well.
Tip for buying more film: target and Walmart sell a 10 pack of film (100 photos) for about $65. Best deal I can find per photo.

Love it
Such a cute little camera, no complaints here! Really easy to use and comes with a travel case. A little photo album to save photos and films, what more could you want!

still good, but feels flimsier than older models
This Instax works just fine, but I have one from several years ago, and you can tell that the materials seem a little flimsier. Still worth buying.

Cute and functional
 Obviously this isn’t the best camera in the world, but it’s fun to take pictures with friends or places and be able to have a nice picture with it. The photo book is nice, but the seashells inside are too big to move around. Definitely recommend if you want to have some fun pictures to keep!
