My new toy. A FujiFilm Instax SQ! Camera Glacier Blue, though I’d wish they made it in deeper colours. But it is a minimalist camera. You take it out of it’s bag. Twist the lens to turn it on. Point it at the subject, and shoot. The photo pops out the slot at the top. Some seconds later you have a fully developed picture.

Hint 1 – you are taking a square photo so it won’t matter how you hold the camera.

I received the case today, and I decided I just didn’t like it. It has snaps on the back and the front goes over the top and down in front of the lens. So, if I get the front cover back over the camera, I have a folded piece of matereal between my face and the viewfinder.

So I won’t use it unless and except for long term storage. Not that the camera won’t be protected. It will share a case with my other cameras. A Sony digital, a red Kodak M38, color, and a yellow Kodak M35, black and white.
