I have gifted two of them already to some friends, and they are equally as in love with them! The blue color displayed in the photos is identical to the actual color of the camera. So far, my friends have had no complaints regarding how well the cameras work. Mine is a different color, but since that's just a cosmetic difference, I'll give my personal opinion of my camera. Ease of Use: 4/5 This camera is SO easy to use. While the gist of it is "point and shoot", you may find that your photos are slightly un-centered and off to the left if you solely rely on viewing through the viewfinder. A helpful tip I've mentioned to my girlfriends is that when you think your photo is centered perfectly, adjust your camera ever so slightly to the right, and they will turn out beautifully! Also, make sure to adjust the lighting settings to whatever the camera prompts you to select. If you forget to do this, your photos will almost definitely turn out too dark, or overexposed - and film is NOT cheap! Set Up: 5/5 Super easy to set up. Literally all you do is insert the included batteries. Reading the instructions is very helpful when you're inserting your film for the first time, so make sure you don't throw them away! Price for Quality: 5/5 This camera is worth every penny. It's the cheapest by far on desertcart. While it's also sold at Michael's and Urban Outfitters, they'll charge you upwards of $100/$200, when you can easily buy it online for less. This camera is an investment. Buying film will be the most costly part of owning it, but if you hunt around and compare prices, you can easily find packs of film that save you a few bucks. I adore this camera. Since owning it, I've found that I'm much more selective when taking photos. I won't just take pictures of random things anymore since the film only comes in packs of 10 sheets. I love that the photos print right away, and they're so easy to display and give to people. My camera is always a hit at parties and when we're on vacations. It saves me from having to use up my phone battery while constantly taking pictures, which is definitely a plus! It's very small, and not at all a nuisance to carry around. I purchased a case for it, and have purchased the same cases as an included gift with their cameras. I definitely recommend buying yourself a case and an attachable selfie mirror to go along with this camera! Review: Fun for teenagers. - Purchased this for my 15 year old daughter and she loves it. Apparently instant cameras are a fad right now and this seems to work well. It's simple to use and is a fun novelty item. And it IS a novelty item. Please don't buy this thinking you're getting something that's going to take amazing photos. They quality is just lovely for a Polaroid-style camera, but you won't get the results that you get from your phone or digital camera. This is designed for kids to take cute pictures of their friends, not something you're going to take vacation photos with. My daughter decorates them with stickers, writes on them with her friends and hangs them in her study and bedroom on ribbons with tiny clothespins. The photos are about the size of a credit card or wallet-sized photo, including the white frame around the picture. Big difference between this and the old square Polaroids from our childhood is that you *don't* flap these in the air to develop them.. That will actually hurt the development process. You lay the film on a flat surface and it takes about 10 minutes to finish processing. It's an instant camera, so it's bulky compared to a regular one, but again, you're not going to want to take this to document a family trip. The bulk and the price of the film (roughly $1 per picture) would keep me from giving this to a child younger than 10-12. I would definitely not purchase this for a little one, because they'd go through $20 in film in eleven seconds and you'd have a lot of blurry photos of their feet and the walls! Now for a bunch of 15 year old girls, it's a lot of fun and my daughter and her friends have really enjoyed it. ## Features - New slimmer and lighter body - Automatic exposure measurement. The camera signals the recommended aperture setting with a flashing LED. This helps capture the perfect photo every time. - New High-Key mode - Take brighter pictures with a soft look - perfect for portraits. - New improved viewfinder for greater clarity and visibility. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00AWKJPMC | | Aspect Ratio | Unknown | | Best Sellers Rank | #50,832 in Electronics ( See Top 100 in Electronics ) #157 in Instant Film Cameras | | Brand | Fujifilm | | Built-In Media | Instax Mini 8 Instant Camera (black) | | Color | Black | | Compatible Camera Film Format Type | Instax Mini | | Compatible Devices | Instax mini 7s, Instax mini 8 | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 19,360 Reviews | | Exposure Control | Automatic | | Features | Auto Exposure, Compact, Timer | | Film Color Type | Color | | Film Format | Instant | | Film Format Type | Instant | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00074101102260, 03609920155011 | | Included Components | Instax Mini 8 Instant Camera (black) | | Item Dimensions | 3 x 5 x 5.5 inches | | Item Weight | 0.43 kg | | Item dimensions L x W x H | 3 x 5 x 5.5 inches | | Manufacturer | Fujifilm | | Manufacturer Part Number | MAIN-39857 | | Maximum Shutter Speed | 1/60 sec. | | Minimum Shutter Speed | 1/60 sec. | | Model Name | FBA_MAIN-39857 | | Model Number | Instax Mini 8 - Black | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Shooting Modes | Automatic, High-Key | | Special Feature | Auto Exposure , Compact, Timer | | UPC | 791583373611 151903530542 074101102260 785983743594 163120832217 071020422370 021112582727 115971123402 132017593265 617407466713 044111183689 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Viewfinder | Optical viewfinder | | Warranty Description | 1 year coverage for labor, 1 year coverage for parts, This warranty doesn’t cover accessories not made by the manufacturer, batteries, or flash equipment | | Water Resistance Level | Not Water Resistant | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Fujifilm - **Compatible Devices:** Instax mini 7s, Instax mini 8 - **Film Color:** Color - **Film Format Type:** Instant - **Included Components:** Instax Mini 8 Instant Camera (black) - **Item Weight:** 0.43 kg - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 3 x 5 x 5.5 inches - **Min Shutter Speed:** 1/60 sec. - **Model Name:** FBA_MAIN-39857 - **Special Feature:** Auto Exposure, Compact, Timer ## Images ![instax mini 8 Instant Camera-Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61sk62N1lzL.jpg) ![instax mini 8 Instant Camera-Black - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61sYwUFpKiL.jpg) ![instax mini 8 Instant Camera-Black - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/616ql1cIs0L.jpg) ![instax mini 8 Instant Camera-Black - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61HKtssoPPL.jpg) ![instax mini 8 Instant Camera-Black - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61ElBq1VG0L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: 3 to 5 weeks** A: Thank you for the question. When it was a hurry, then ships by EMS Japan Post. It depends on the place where you live, but it arrives in about a week. Please consider whether you buy. Thanks in advance. **Q: Does the camera come with film already** A: The price for the Mini 8 hovers between $55 - $65 depending on color. When you buy the bundle it includes film and adds 2 packs of film. It is often times less expensive to buy the film separately as opposed to in the bundle. Film packs go for about $12.50 a 2 pack.

Tips from personal experience! *by K***R on February 24, 2016* Tips for Taking Photos with Instax Mini! 1. take good care of the camera i.e it shouldn’t be jostled or dropped because THE LENS circle thing WILL FALL OFF. You can stick it back on but there’s always a little risk involved, the first time the lens fell off I nearly got a heart attack. 2. never, ever take a photo in sucky lighting (ex. Our house which is lighted purely by incandescent lamps) In fact limit indoor photos unless it’s an extremely special/candid moment that can’t be replaced. Don’t lie to yourself and think “it’ll turn out good anyway” Nuh uh 3. Always pay attention to the dial and turn it. I’ve had photos come out as yellowish blanks because someone forgot to turn the dial 4. do not play around with the dial and think you can judge what setting is best for the weather…the camera really is most accurate. 5. Try to wear light colored clothing. Not white because the flash will react badly. Not dark/black clothing because the background of the picture (ESPECIALLY if indoors) darkens naturally and you can “Fade” into the background. 6. Selfies are always best with natural light. If not, and you’re taking a selfie with a friend, remember that the person holding the camera (and therefore closest to it) is more likely to get a little bit whited out (not a lot, but a little) than the other person. 7. The lens can hold a surprising amount of space/number of people in one photo. This means that if for example, you’re taking a photo of a big group of people, you don’t have to back up as much as you think. If you do their faces will have less focus. Don’t be afraid to close up a little bit. (referring here to horizontal photos of course) 8. The camera can take very nice photos both vertically and horizontally. Vertically is better for portraits and closeups and is very flexible. Horizontal, however, can get you a beautiful “slice of life” feel, when you want to focus not only on the people but the background and scenery. 9. The paper/material the photo is printed on is thick, white, and has a little space under the photo itself for you to write something. ALWAYS write with a thin pen Sharpie. Normal pens, ballpens, ink pens whatever bleed and smudge and look plain nasty. So maybe now you’re wondering….wow, this camera has a lot of limitations. Should I seriously get it?? And my answer….YES! Yes you should. The photos just feel so incredibly real. It’s like holding that moment in your hand. It’s so different from digital photos or even printing at Walgreens. You can look at a photo over and over again, and every time notice something good and different. It’s hard to explain, but these photos are so old timey and vivid, every one of these is like a breath of fresh air. And another thing…EVERYONE loves instant cameras….I met my cousins for the first time this winter, and I honestly feel like we really bonded over this. Every time you take a new photo, everybody hovering around like “how’d it turn out??” and you get to watch it develop (extremely interesting.) It only takes a minute for the photo to develop, but a few more for the colors to really pop. So yes….Get it. Make sure to watch a couple YouTube tips/reviews/demo vids and be sparing with the pictures, they ARE pricey!! ## Frequently Bought Together - Fujifilm Instax Mini 8 Instant Camera - Fujifilm INSTAX Mini Instant Film 2 Pack = 20 Sheets (White) for Fujifilm Mini 8 & Mini 9 Cameras, Model:4332059078 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.eg/products/1142982-instax-mini-8-instant-camera-black](https://www.desertcart.com.eg/products/1142982-instax-mini-8-instant-camera-black) --- *Product available on Desertcart Egypt* *Store origin: EG* *Last updated: 2026-08-24*
