Fujifilm released the Instax Wide 300 in 2014, and the instant camera earned positive reviews for vibrant, high-quality prints. Fast forward ten years, and a successor has finally arrived in the form of the Instax Wide 400.
This new model produces prints that measure 4.25 x 3.34 inches, or twice as wide as the Instax mini film, to capture wide-format photos such as landscapes and group shots. The film develops quickly, taking approximately 90 seconds, give or take some seconds depending on ambient temperature. Like its predecessor, the Instax Wide 400 is a quite bulky and heavy, measuring 162mm x 92mm x 123mm and weighing 616g without the battery and addons. In fact, this is Fujifilm’s largest instant film camera to date.
Owners of the 300 model will find several of the same features in the Instax Wide 400. These features include the retractable lens with a fixed 95mm focal length, a programmed electronic shutter release, a viewfinder for accurately framing shots, and a built-in automatic flash.
But the Instax Wide 400 also has some new features, one of which is a lever-operated self-timer with a countdown light indicator. The countdown can be set up to 10 seconds and begins once the shutter button is pressed. There’s also a camera angle adjustment accessory, which is basically a strap with adjustment feet so you can set the angle without needing a tripod.
The Instax Wide 400 will be released in July in select markets. It comes in one color only—sage green—and costs $149.99.
