FUJIFILM Malaysia announces the launch of the instax mini 99TM (mini 99TM), a high-end model of the instax series of analog instant cameras, which was released on 4th April 2024 locally.
The mini 99™ is an evolved version of the globally successful instax mini 90TM (mini 90TM). It features new functions that use analog technology to further broaden the range of print expressions.
‘Color Effect Control’ applies lights of different colors directly to a film to produce six different color expressions, and ‘Vignette Mode’, which reduces exposure around the edges to bring the focus to the centre of each picture. Print expressions can vary based on shooting conditions, allowing users to create unique instax prints with great flair.
