  The New Fujifilm Instax Soft Haze Film Brings 90s Style

  Typically photographers love using mist filters on their camera lenses to get a soft glow, but the newest Fujifilm Instax film is doing that for them. To us, it already did a good job of that anyway. Fujifilm's instax series has won over millions of young photographers and casual shooters over the years. In fact, the instax series is still considered one of the most profitable camera businesses for the company. After the success of Square SQ1 in 2020, the company has finally introduced the instax Square 2 with a new soft haze film.

  Fujifilm Instax Square 2 Review: How I made Over 40 People Smile

  For most of my career, I've looked at Fujifilm's more affordable Instax camera options and kind of scoffed at them, but 20 years into my career, and I'm absolutely charmed by cameras like the Fujifilm Instax Square 2.

  The 2010s Were Peak Human Photography. Can We Go Back?

  Recently, I gave my designer friend a camera; he then proceeded to show me a few images. "What I lack in understanding of the camera … I made it up in post editing … Lol," he texted me. Make no mistake, the technology of modern mirrorless cameras is exemplary in the hands of established, experienced photographers. Why do I say that? Because they understand their own creative vision so much more than letting the camera decide it for them.

  There are Too Many Cameras: Not in the Way You Think

  A very long time ago on Reddit, I saw a thread for a camera that was being sold by Costco. It was an old Canon Rebel T7, a camera that was so insignificant that we didn't bother reviewing it here at the Phoblographer. We did, however, review the Canon T7i. Yet this year, that old Rebel was selling for $700. Crazy, right?
