Experience FUJIFILM live at the PHOTOPIA 2022 in Hamburg

by mariesophieklueber October 28, 2022 Comments0

October 16th marked the end of the second PHOTOPIA trade show in Hamburg and with it four exciting days where photography enthusiasts and customers could experience FUJIFILM’s products in a unique environment. More than 10,000 visitors were inspired by the setting, built from 350 shipping containers, took part in workshops or learned the art of photography from professionals like our X-Photographers.

The design of the large FUJIFILM booth in particular attracted many visitors, as much awaited them on, in and around the custom-designed shipping containers: in front of a custom-made tape art wall, INSTAX fans could capture the unique photo festival experience with our instant cameras and try out the INSTAX cameras and printers for themselves. A camera rental and cleaning service was also offered to visitors. On a stage directly integrated into the booth, basketball players, break dancers or skateboarders performed regularly, a perfect motif to try out the unique X-cameras for yourself.

The print results from the FUJIFILM onsite printers could also be admired hot off the press, as well as the Printlife exhibition in a container. Take a look at the video to get even more impressions of Photopia 2022!

All in all, it was a highly successful exhibition with many interesting encounters, informative exchanges and, most importantly, a lot of fun. We would like to thank everyone who made this great trade show possible and made it a special experience.

Decorate Your Home – Instax mini Evo

by maurice kammholz September 10, 2022 Comments0

How can you make a home really YOUR home? Definitely by decorating and giving it your personal touch, expressing your true self. This is also what you do with our Instax cameras, you express yourself. Our colleagues from Instax Spain have partnered with Westwing España, which are going to show us which decorative styles are those that fit best with our amazing Instax mini Evo.

If you have not heard about it yet, the Instax mini Evo is one of our latest additions to the Instax family. Although it is a camera that offers multiple digital functions: from 10 different lens and film effects to various shooting modes, its design is reminiscent of that of a full-fledged vintage camera. Therefore, we like to call the Instax mini Evo black a ‘vintage-looking hybrid’. With its classic shape and design, the camera has that elegant and refined finish. For that reason, it is perfect to have as an additional decorative element, giving final touches to your vintage or industrial home decoration style.

Vintage decorative style

You have probably already seen and noticed it, everything comes back. We already know that there are things that never go out of style. Neither does Vintage, which is characterized by the use of furniture with a worn appearance and the reuse of old pieces from between the 20s and 70s. This decorative style manages to bring a lot of personality and charm in any house. Now to the more important part… Where to place the camera? Place your instax mini Evo where it can be seen, like on a console in the hall, so that when you enter the house both you and your guests see this detail. This will not only create the perfect vintage look in combination with a console that has a worn effect, it will also ensure that you never forget it before leaving home!

Industrial Style

For everyone who wants the perfect mix of materials such as metal, leather, cement and untreated wood, the industrial characteristic style of the 60s is your perfect match. This style goes perfectly with the black and metallic colors of the Instax mini Evo. Let’s be realistic, in a dining room of this style you can not miss a large metal shelf that brings character to the room. Combine it with accessories such as chandeliers, trays, concrete vases and… With the Instax mini Evo! So, let’s get ready to add a more characteristic and powerful touch to the room and amaze everyone when visiting you!

Did you get inspired to overthink your interior and decoration style again? Don’t forget to get yourself some unique furniture pieces and of course, don’t forget to get your own Instax mini Evo!
