Fujifilm Instax Share SP-2 Printer

The Fujifilm Instax SHARE prints quickly. When you tap "Print" on the app, it takes 10 to 15 seconds. You will then need to wait for the film to finish developing, which should take another 90 seconds or so.If you've ever printed in the darkroom, you are familiar with the sense of wonder and awe you get as the print comes into focus; this is comparable to how you feel while you wait for the instax print to develop. However, some individuals might find it inconvenient to have to wait so long to see an "immediate" print.

The instax SHARE has a stylish, contemporary design, although it is a bit bulkier than other ZINK (Zero Ink) devices like the Polaroid Zip and HP Sprocket. Without the replaceable battery and film pack, the instax SHARE measures 5.19 x 3.52 x 1.57 inches. There are only the power and reprint buttons on the external manual controls, which come in matte white with silver or gold accents.The top of the printer is opened by a little latch so that the film pack may be placed inside. Various LEDs indicate charging, power, and the amount of photos left, in addition to the controls and a micro-USB connector that is covered by a little flap. Although the app also displays the remaining number of prints, the latter is especially helpful since it serves as a quick visual reminder.

The Fujifilm instax SHARE, which uses instant film, makes superior prints than most compact printers because it uses ZINK (Zero Ink) technology, in which the color is embedded in the paper and released with heat from the printer. Details are sharper and colors are a little bit more bright. However, compared to other dye-sublimation printers like the Canon SELPHY CP1300, the sharpness and brilliance of the little instax prints aren't as noticeable.
