What customers say about "Size & Weight"

Fujifilm Instax Mini 7s Red Instant Film Camera

Its a great size and weight. Easy to use and also has a few simple settings to help take the best picture, which is fun to play with!
I bought this for my teenage daughter. She loves it! It's small and compact so she just puts it in her purse.
It's small and lighter than a DSLR, and although it looks like a toy, it works really well.
It's also convenient that it's small; it's portable and fits in most purses/ bags. I love that it's small so I can take with me everywhere I go.
I love my instax mini. It's so small you can carry it pretty much everywhere. I have a lot of fun with it.
This camera is not super portable...you can hold with one hand and it is light, but it does take up considerable room in a purse.

Fujifilm Instax Mini 8 Instant Camera

Perfect size and weight for on-the-go traveling. A "must have" for fun times!
Great camera, very compact and light weight to carry around. Cool pics
Really love it works great super fun to use! Light weight small to carry around!
It's light in weight where she just wear it around her neck (neck strap not included) takes under a min to load new film.
The only con is that the camera is quite bulky.

What customers say about "Features"

Fujifilm Instax Mini 7s Red Instant Film Camera

The settings are all preset for you. just simply turn the dial. make sure to put the proper setting for each location i.e. bright, indoor, dark, etc.
The pictures that comes out are about a size of a credit card and is super cute for your wallet or scrap booking.
The camera comes in 4 different lighting settings (indoor, cloudy, fine, and clear). From what I learned so far, depending on where you are, definitely follow the settings.
The flash does NOT switch off, no matter which of the 4 exposure settings you use, or how brightly lit your surroundings are--which restricts us from using this in places like art galleries, museums, and any such places that forbid flash photography.
No tripod mount. Also, you will definitely not be able to capture fast-movement onto the polaroid (will be blurry).
There is also no self-portait mirror which I think would have been perfect in completing the package. It would have been good to know how you're going to look in the polaroid before actually using the film.
