Hello to all friends of Amazon,
this time, given the particularity of the treated article, I would like to make a "review / comparison" between the two rivals of instant photography: Polaroid with its classic square films and FujiFilm with its new Instax Square.
I consider this comparison necessary for anyone thinking of approaching this type of photography because I find the two types of films extremely different, in terms of type, size, color fidelity and prices.
Of course in the video (which you can find on my YouTube channel) I show examples, so you can evaluate whether to buy these films or a different type, based on your needs.
As for Polaroid we have:
PRO
- photo size;
- card quality;
-At the end of development you will have the exact same photos of "when we were children";
-compatibility with many cameras of the brand, including the "old" vintage that you may already have in the attic.
- great variety of frames, many are the colors available for the frames.
VERSUS
-high price;
-8 shots instead of 10;
-colors (naturally) not faithful to reality but more "dull";
- high development times (15 minutes);
- impractical mode of conservation.
As for Fuji we have:
PRO
- convenient price (about 1 euro each pose);
- color and print quality;
- development time of only 90 seconds;
- simpler storage and longer film expiration;
- they are used by different brands, if you don't like Fuji cameras, like Lomography, Leica or Jollylook.
VERSUS
- although they are larger than the Instax Mini, they are still smaller than the Polaroids;
- less vintage image, the photo tends to look modern.
- you will fill the house with these photographs and friends will ask you to always give them one :-D
I hope this review/comparison, a bit anomalous, could be useful and helpful in case of purchase or indecision on which films to use.
If you have any questions do not hesitate, I will answer you as soon as possible.
A hug and see you at the next review.

I think my film was damaged but I’ve ordered before and it was great
By Georgia Wright on 28 March 2022
So I’ve ordered this film a few times now and it’s been perfect, unfortunately this particular packet something has gone wrong? I don’t believe I pressed the film (exposing it to light) when I put it in the camera as I’m always so careful not to, yet the photos are coming out like this. Will still buy in future, hoping this is just a one off
