Fujifilm instax mini Evo Cinema Camera Summary
The Fujifilm instax mini Evo Cinema Camera is a 3-in-1 hybrid instant camera, a first in instax history, that records stills and video, displays images on a rear LCD, and prints selected frames onto instax mini film. It sits within Fujifilm’s Evo Series, which combines digital capture with physical instant prints, and adds video capture with QR-based playback as a new capability within the range.
What distinguishes the Cinema version is its ability to convert short video clips into QR codes printed directly onto instax photos, linking a physical print to a playable video stored via the companion app. This allows a printed image to function as both a photograph and a gateway to moving footage.
The camera also introduces the Eras Dial, a physical control that applies era-inspired visual treatments across both stills and video, alongside a vertical grip layout influenced by Fujifilm’s historic Single-8 cameras.
This camera suits gift buyers, younger users, and anyone who wants instant prints that connect to video clips without needing technical camera knowledge.

- Prints images stored internally or on microSD cards without using a smartphone

Fujifilm instax mini Evo Cinema Camera in More Detail
Image quality and creative effects
The mini Evo Cinema records digital stills and video using a small-format CMOS sensor, with captured images displayed on a rear colour LCD before printing. Image output is shaped primarily by the built-in effects system, with the Eras Dial applying visual treatments inspired by specific periods in film and photographic history, including looks based on early home movie formats.
The camera can capture up to three video clips that total up to 15 seconds before combining them in camera for printing with a QR code link to playback.
Each era effect includes multiple adjustment levels that alter contrast, colour response, and tonal behaviour without external editing. Effects apply consistently to both stills and video, so printed frames and linked footage share the same visual character. The fixed 28mm equivalent lens focuses from approximately 10 cm, supporting close-range shooting alongside everyday scenes.
Video capture and QR print integration
The mini Evo Cinema links video capture to physical instax prints using printed QR codes. When a video is recorded, a still frame is extracted and printed alongside a QR code that connects to the associated video via the companion app after upload.
This allows an instant print to function as both a photograph and a playback link. The printed image remains fully usable on its own, while scanning the QR code provides access to the video clip. Video files are stored through the app for a defined period, allowing playback without the camera present.
Handling, controls, and operation
The camera features a vertical grip influenced by Fujifilm’s early cine cameras, with physical dials and controls used for capture, review, and printing. Physical controls include a print lever, zoom lever, and a degree control dial that fine-tunes each selected era effect.
A rear 1.54-inch colour LCD is used for framing, playback, and image selection prior to printing. Core functions operate directly on the camera without requiring a smartphone. Images can be stored internally or on a microSD card and printed later from memory.
The companion app adds optional video editing tools, including clip trimming and the application of opening and ending templates before upload and printing.
App connectivity and printer functionality
In addition to camera operation, the mini Evo Cinema functions as a smartphone printer. Images stored on a connected phone can be transferred wirelessly and printed on instax mini film, matching the same output format as camera-captured images.
Charging is handled via USB-C. The camera operates as a self-contained device while expanding its capabilities when paired with the app, including remote camera control and direct printing of smartphone images.
