Description
Important Notes:
- Typical shooting “recipe” is f16-22 @ 1/30-1/60, with 2-3 fresnel lenses + 1 diffuser. Mix and match 1-3 fresnels + diffuser/no-diffuser for desired look.
- Distance to subject is 42.69″ or 3.5575ft from the front glass, 3.69ft from the logo plate, 4.52ft from film plane.
- Included flash is a bit underpowered, so f11-16 may be required. Recommended to upgrade to Vivitar 252, or Nissin 30 flash (MC-30, EF-30, etc).
- Diffuser holder ships loose for packaging reasons, and will require installation or leave it off if using a more professional flash/strobe setup.
- Be mindful that this is for 800 speed Instax film, so ambient/outdoor lighting may have an impact.
- Framing on this prototype is tight but fairly accurate, some practice and adjustment may be necessary. My rule of thumb: focus on the mouth and center it in the yellow box, everything else will align properly.
- Lens was a bargain find and has some damage on the filter threads.
- Due to the nature of the mount on this camera, It is not recommended to remove the lens. It will be difficult to uninstall/install.
- This build does not have a tripod socket at the bottom.
