New Design
The Instax Mini 12 has received a subtle design update from Fujifilm. This new camera comes in a number of new colors including, blossom pink, mint green, clay white, lilac purple, pastel blue and has a unique new design. It includes several of the most popular designs from the previous Mini 11 model that customers loved. In contrast to the bulging handle that was attached to the side of the Instax Mini 11, the camera has a more uniform rectangular shape. A more fluid and airy appearance can also be seen on the Instax Mini 12's rear, which matches the front of the camera. For the Instax Mini 11, Fujifilm has completely removed the power switch that was located to the right of the lens. It is now simple to activate the camera by rotating the lens to the right. The camera turns on with the first click, and the second click starts the Close-Up mode. Using just two AA batteries, the Instax Mini 12 is capable of about 100 total exposures, or 10 packs of Instax Mini film.
New Features
The Close-Up Mode and Auto Exposure capabilities from MINI 11 have been inproved and carried over to MINI 12, along with the addition of the new Parallax Correction feature, which aligns the camera's viewfinder with the lens when in Close-Up Mode to reduce object shifts and provide a centered image. Besides that, the MINI 12 has automatic flash adjustment, which enhances image quality in both bright and dim lighting conditions. The lens construction is made to offer simple, precise directions for turning the camera on and off as well as opening the much-liked Close-Up Mode.
