Leica Instant Camera History

April 19, 2017

There is not much information about the Leica instant camera on the internet but here is what i managed to find.

Leica has only one camera in its product line that is instant and i am going to tell you a bit more about it, and its story.

The Leica camera is the first instant camera in the Leica family. Its first public appearance is in September of 2016 at Photokina exhibition in Germany. This is the world`s biggest exhibition held in Europe for photography and imaging industries.

It is official out with 3 colors being - orange, white and mint.

One of the things that makes Leica different from every other instant camera is the automatic mode, Leica takes advantage of the available light as long as possible, which results in photos with much more natural look.
There are a few modes the camera offers such as Party, Sports, Action Macro, Sport, Bulb, Automatic, Double Exposure and Selfie.

The selfie/self-timer modes offer two different delays, for better results each time you take a photo, when choosing the Selfie mode Leica offer a mirror for your selfies, which otherwise is covered.

The flash can be turned on/off or left to automatic, which is a big step up compared to the Fujifilm Instax mini 8 that i have been using, which does not have option to turn off flash.

The camera became available for users in November of 2016.
