Fujifilm Instax Square 2 Slate Blue Instant Camera

Square-Format Instant Camera with Automatic, Point-and-Print Operation

The instax SQUARE 2 Slate Blue instant camera wraps Fujifilm's square-format instax film in a fully automatic body that ejects a 62 × 62 mm print after each press. Automatic Exposure, Automatic Flash, and a built-in selfie mirror strip the experience down to a few physical controls, so framing remains the photographer's only real craft. The 139 × 119.5 × 71 mm body weighs 450 g (without batteries, with film and strap) and ships in Slate Blue alongside Misty White and Brick Red variants.

What Sets This Analog Camera Apart

A Mood Filter switch mounted on the front of the lens flips between Warm (orange) and Cool (blue) overlays placed directly in front of the glass, lightly tinting the prints; an Off position keeps the classic instax look.

Equally new is a three-position lens ring: Landscape (3 m and beyond), Standard (0.5–3 m), and Close-up (30–50 cm).

Optics, Viewfinder and Framing

The fixed lens runs a 2-element, 2-component formula at 65.75 mm f/12.6, with no optical stabilization on board. Composition relies on a Reverse Galilean finder with 0.4x magnification and a target spot, and a small mirror beside the lens handles self-portraits.

• Lens Construction: 2 components, 2 elements, f = 65.75 mm at f/12.6
• Viewfinder: Reverse Galilean, 0.4x with target spot — fully optical, zero battery draw
• Focusing System: Zone focusing through the lens ring: Landscape, Standard and Close-up bands

Shutter Speeds, Metering and Flash

A programmed electronic shutter cycles between 1/2 s and 1/400 s with slow synchro for dim spaces, while automatic exposure is calibrated against ISO 800 instax film and reads the scene between Lv 5.0 and Lv 15.5. The constant-firing flash recycles in roughly 7.5 seconds and lights subjects from 0.3 to 2.2 m away.

• Shutter Speeds: 1/2 s to 1/400 s programmed electronic, with slow synchro
• Exposure Range: Lv 5.0 to Lv 15.5 at ISO 800 — automatic only
• Flash: Constant firing with automatic light adjustment, effective range 0.3–2.2 m, recycle ~7.5 s

Power, Film Compatibility and Body Footprint

Four AA alkaline cells drive approximately 30 instax SQUARE 10-pack film sets, while a 5-minute auto power-off keeps idle drain low. The 86 × 72 mm film format yields a 62 × 62 mm 1:1 print — a frame that balances portrait and small-group compositions without favoring either orientation.

• Film: Fujifilm instax SQUARE 86 × 72 mm, picture size 62 × 62 mm
• Battery: 4 × AA alkaline (LR6) — approx. 30 film packs, 5-minute auto power-off
• Body & Footprint: 139.0 × 119.5 × 71.0 mm, 450 g without batteries

Who This Instant Camera Is Built For

The instax SQUARE 2 is the right choice for party hosts, travelers and analog-print hobbyists who want a tangible print instead of a scrollable gallery. The 0.5–3 m Standard range handles typical group-shot distances without lens swaps. AA batteries plus widely available instax SQUARE film keep it road-ready, and photographers needing manual exposure or on-screen review should consider a hybrid Fujifilm Evo or LiPlay model instead.

Fujifilm Instax Heritage

This October 2026 release continues the analog instax SQUARE series with a more capable lens and switchable mood filter. Fujifilm's own film technology is reflected in the 62 × 62 mm 1:1 print format, while Misty White, Slate Blue and Brick Red finishes extend the line's color-conscious design across three personal styles.
