A little trick with flash. I always take a separate flash out with me and set it to 'slave mode' so when the flash on the camera goes off it triggers the separate flash held higher in my other hand. This extra light really helps in low light, or high contrasting shadows because the camera can't adjust the settings of the external flash.... so... balancing the overall exposure....... This film loves light :-)

[@EdmundKBoateng]

This is a great information , I will use this technique in a studio portrait

[@IainHC1]

@@EdmundKBoateng I know it's been a while..... But have you used this technique since?

[@EdmundKBoateng]

I haven’t tried it yet. I don’t have a speed light that has the option for slave unless I’m using my strobe which I haven’t yet

[@brineb58]

It is magic!!! I love the Instax Wide format, I just feel this model doesn't have enough controls ... not that i haven't rum many packs of film with it, just not as versatile as the Lomo one!! I do love your enthusiasm!!!

[@EdmundKBoateng]

Obviously my favorite camera of all time haha! I still have the same feeling anytime I use it! Thanks for watching Brian!!!

[@IainHC1]

Edwin Land invented instant photography...... Founder of Polaroid :-) Genius bloke :-) He (Polaroid) and Fuji eventually worked together. Polaroid pushed the boundaries of invention a bit too far and folded due to the new digital era. A sad story in the end for Polaroid :-( But Fuji kept everything in prospective and carried on producing instant film......... It's a really good part of their sales and income :-)

[@EdmundKBoateng]

Very interesting, didn’t know that. Well honestly the most fun and interesting camera I’ve ever used

[@KarySchump]

I love this camera too, and that’s how I found your channel. Also, I have rewatched your video, because I love your enthusiasm!! You’re an amazing photographer!! Thanks for your channel and all your cool videos!!

[@EdmundKBoateng]

Thank you so much Kary, appreciate you and thanks for watching !

[@CornelisCees]

Thanks for the informative video. I bought a instax 100. Mostly cause I just don't have the patience or attention span to upload any digital fotos. Loving the retro vibes of the pictures!

[@EdmundKBoateng]

That's awesome, I'm glad you enjoyed the video and have fun with yours.

[@ericflynn4524]

Instant film is so much fun! I have a 2x3 camera and found out that Instax Mini film fits in the sheet film holders, so I can effectively use my Century Graphic as an instant camera.

[@EdmundKBoateng]

That’s awesome! Instant photos are so cool and unique

[@lifeismusicparnadonkers]

Hello Edmund KBoateng. How are you? Cool the instax wide 300. I wished all the fujifilm instant camera would have a large lens,selfie mode,a timer,collourful films,a case for you,re camera,films and batteries, a on and off button for the flash light all of the instant camera,s should be on batteries if you ask me. I don,t like rechargeble batteries 😊✌🏾👍🏾👋🏾 i love you,re pictures😊👋🏾👍🏾✌🏾

[@precociousmonkeyproductions]

I have a Sony a7iii and a Fujifilm XT1 and the camera that I enjoy using the most… is my instax 100 lol it’s like a Time Machine… the pictures remind me of my childhood and I took them yesterday… I can’t get enough 😁🍻

[@lifeismusicparnadonkers]

I think this camera, the camera that have (but not am not sure about that 😅) and the instax evo mini are perfect for professionel photographers😊i love you,re photo,s😊👋🏾✌🏾😁👍🏾

[@EdmundKBoateng]

They could be if exposed correctly.

[@lifeismusicparnadonkers]

Yeah for sure

[@BillyHopscotch]

I recently picked up an Instax Wide 210. They really work well! Think you'll try the Lomo Graflok Instax Wide back for 4x5 when it comes out?

[@EdmundKBoateng]

I saw a bunch of that on Facebook market when I was looking for the instax wide 300 but I do not want that one lol. Also I do not shoot 4x5

[@lifeismusicparnadonkers]

Quick tip. Never shake the film cause the ink will run true the picture and the picture is ruined 😊 have fun shooting pictures. You should thank fujifilm company. Its location in my country the netherlands in rotterdam 😊its a dutch company

[@EdmundKBoateng]

That is awesome, I didn't know they were made in Rotterdam, that's cool

[@lifeismusicparnadonkers]

Hello @EdmundKBoateng. How are you. I love you,re pictures whit the instax wide 300. I dind know eigther i looked it up and the man who started the company is also dutch 👋🏾👍🏾✌🏾

[@DavidAusman]

That picture of the stairs with the door is spectacular.

[@EdmundKBoateng]

Thank you Bruno! Thanks for watching

[@offenbaecher]

hi! this camera is a weird piece. in a very interesting way. thank you for your video - really cool to watch! greetings from germany.

[@EdmundKBoateng]

I totally agree, and I love using it , greetings and hope everything good in Germany?

[@lifeismusicparnadonkers]

I thought the camera was you,r own camera 😅 you should buy 1 or but the instax mini black 40. Its the one i have. Its smaller in pictures tho but the pictures are stunning wen i take them whit my Fujifilm instax mini 40 camera. Hope you had fun shooting whit the camera😊👍🏾😁✌🏾👋🏾

[@EdmundKBoateng]

The camera in the video wasn't mine but I did buy one after that. I haven't shot it in a while but definitely still one of my all time favorites. Need to do an update video haha. Thanks for watching

[@lifeismusicparnadonkers]

Allright asome

[@davehanner360]

Wow, what a “magical” video! Time to sell the Leica? Photos of the skateboarder were great too!

[@EdmundKBoateng]

It’s about that time I let it go lol! Thanks for letting me borrow the camera and your films it was really fun. Thanks

[@MaestroBerend]

Heyo, you’re photo’s were pretty dark. Did you use light, normal or dark mode when you took the pictures? Thanks in advance!

[@EdmundKBoateng]

I did use it but the power of the flash wasn’t that strong that’s why all photos were dark, I’m going to have a follow up video combining it with a slave flash or strobe which make it way better!!! Thanks for watching

[@jordanpaige7329]

Do you prefer this over the Instax Q1?!

[@EdmundKBoateng]

Up until this comment I wasn’t familiar with the Q1 even though I’ve seen them in peoples videos. But it looks like they will be fun to shoot as well. I will try to get my hands on one to try

[@KywaunJackson]

The photos seem bigger then the ones on my Instax square

[@EdmundKBoateng]

Yeah the one I have is instax Wide so it’s in a rectangular frame

[@bgimusic]

I think it's like double the size horizontally

[@Webrisernl]

Is it possible to scan and print these files on lager print paper?

[@EdmundKBoateng]

You definitely can scan it, I don't know though how well it will do reprinted. Let me know how it goes it you try

[@gerardoherrera3662]

What camera is that? The digital one

[@EdmundKBoateng]

Instant camera

[@alanisescobar7987]

What's the camera the woman is holding?

[@EdmundKBoateng]

Lol I had to go rewatch the video to be able to answer this question, she had the Fujifilm X100V. Thanks for watching

[@vitabcdefghijklmno]

10:09 LMAO

[@EdmundKBoateng]

I know right, like where did my subject go? Lol

[@mreinstein48]

Me toooooooooooo!!!! ; )

[@EdmundKBoateng]

Gang!!!!!

[@arturgajewskiphotog]

I much rather purchase Instax Wide Link and shoot with whatever I want and print out the same "Polaroid" photos with a carry-on printer.

[@EdmundKBoateng]

That sounds like a simple great Idea but to me it will defeat the purpose of shooting Instax. Plus you will need to have a digital camera that has WiFi connection and all that, and that is way too much of a hustle. Thanks for watching

[@GoA7250]

Don't shake it...

[@EdmundKBoateng]

Okay

[@SparklingLavaJellyfish]

"shake it shake it" how about no and stop talking about it

[@EdmundKBoateng]

Lol what’s?

[@pecbearet]

They just meant you are not supposed to shake the picture to develop, it might lower the quality of the picture.

[@EdmundKBoateng]

Oh okay, thanks for the info. Didn’t know that
