What film do you need for Instax cameras and which is the cheapest?

All Fujifilm Instax Mini cameras - that includes the popular Mini 11, and the Mini 12 - will need a pack of Instax Mini film. Other Instax models, such as the Instax SQUARE, will take a different type of film, so make sure you purchase the right kind for your camera. When purchasing you will typically be able to find what film the camera requires on the box. 

There are also different types of film with different patterns and designs, from hearts to pastel borders these can seriously upgrade your photos! They do tend to be a little more expensive but are the perfect present for any Instax owners you know. 

Amazon, Argos, Very and Urban Outfitters are just some of the retailers you can purchase Instax film from and we've seen a few Cyber Monday deals begin to drop for film packs. Make sure you do your research before buying a bundle, so you know just how much film you will get when it arrives!

Are Instax cameras worth it?

Whether or not you think an Instax camera is worth investing in is of course completely subjective and up to each individual. If you’re a more seasoned photographer who already dabbles in film cameras and film processing, you might find yourself limited by the easy-to-use functions of the Instax. Due to their universality, the instant cameras are designed to be used by anyone, which means that their functions don’t really allow for much experimentation with different photography styles, light levels and subjects. 

However, if you’re after a camera that will let you take photos of yourself and your loved ones with ease, and can be swiftly printed out - without needing to be sent off for processing - then the Instax is a great way to capture these memories without going through too many steps (or knowing much about photography at all). They’re also a great gadget to take away with you on holidays or short trips, as they’re a great size for travelling, and you’ll be able to see your photos immediately without waiting until you get home.
