Utilizing the form and function of a classic TLR, yet designed to produce credit card-sized instant prints, the InstantFlex TL70 from MiNT is a unique instant film camera that is compatible with instax mini film. Featuring a completely manual set of exposure controls, along with a 61mm f/5.6 triplet lens, this camera affords a broad range of creative control during shooting, including timed shutter speeds from 1 to 1/500 sec., bulb shooting for up to 10 seconds, and a choice of aperture settings from f/5.6 to f/22. A creatively-shaped f/bokeh setting can also be used to produce distinctly-shaped out-of-focus highlights when using selective focus techniques, and manual focus control lets you photograph subjects as close as 1.6' away. The twin lens reflex design avails a bright waist-level optical viewfinder for composing and focusing, and both a bottom tripod mount and neck strap holders are integrated for additional shooting stability. Also unique to TLR designs, an electronic flash is featured above the viewing lens to provide additional illumination to a scene. Pairing the celebrated TLR design with a fun and contemporary film format, the InstantFlex TL70 is unique shooting option that allows you to also mix creativity and control.
