FUJIFILM Corporation announces the INSTAX mini 99 (mini 99), a high-end model of the INSTAX Series of analog instant cameras. The mini 99 is an evolved version of the globally successful INSTAX mini 90 (mini 90).
It features new functions that use analog technology to broaden the range of print expressions further. These include “Colour Effect Control,” which applies lights of different colours directly to a film to produce six different colour expressions, and “Vignette Mode,” which reduces exposure around the edges to bring the focus to the centre of each picture. Print expressions can vary based on shooting conditions, allowing users to create unique INSTAX prints with great flair.
The camera body boasts a leather-like matte texture that is comfortable to hold. It presents a classic design with a premium look and texture suitable for a high-end model.
The new functions of the mini 99: Color Effect Control and Vignette Mode can be combined with Brightness Control, using a dial on the side of the camera body, to further expand the range of print expressions. The new camera also inherits functions from the mini 90, including Landscape / Macro / Indoor modes with enhanced image quality, Sports mode ideal for shooting a fast-moving subject and Self Timer for group shots. Shooting modes for manipulating light are also available, including Bulb and Double Exposure modes.
The mini 99 is designed in pursuit for analog operability, e.g. use of the lens ring to adjust power and focal length, and use of the side dial for changing light and brightness. The camera body boasts leather-like matte texture that sits comfortably in the hand. Hammertone coating and coloured text are featured to present a classical design with a premium exterior and texture suitable for the high-end model for the INSTAX series of analog instant cameras.
