rosuna Posted November 4, 2017 Share #1 Posted November 4, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hello: Fujifilm presents a new printer, the Instax Share SP 3, based on Instax film: https://www.fujifilm.eu/es/productos/instax/p/instax-share-sp-3 I love this film, but the size of this photographs are too small. It is the same film the Leica Sofort uses. I would love to see larger Instax formats (at least 5x8 inches, half a DIN A4), for printers. Leica and Fuji should work on this. What you think?

Hi rosuna, I highly doubt it's the same size as the Sofort, AFAIK it's square paper. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, it the same film technology, if you like to say that way. Different proportions and size, that is right. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosuna Posted November 18, 2017 Author Share #4 Posted November 18, 2017 One of the worst mistakes of camera makers have been forgetting the way images are presented. Camera makers did not care about that, or cared in a wrong way. Camera makers should have developed sites like Flickr for sharing images, but they didn't (or did it too late). The same goes for printers. Ink-jet printers are a mess, and the public do not like it. But Canon, HP and Epson insisted. Killing a more user-friendly alternative the have collaborated in killing the camera business. I may take a picture in square format with my phone and get it printed on the Instax printer. But you pay thousands of dollars (or euros) for a camera and you cannot do the same. Ok, you have ink-jet printers, but people hate them with good reasons. Leica could and should develop a solution for Leica photographers, based on Instax or Zink, high quality, large format (8 x 6 inches or more)... for photographers with pro equipment that need or wish a good paper copy in a easy and user-friendly way.
