Instax Square Link Capture Photos in Square Format

Fujifilm introduces Instax Square Link, a smartphone photo printer that can transfer images in memory to film for square prints. It will be the best printer for photos to capture in a square format easily on the spot using the dedicated App to send your best moments from an image or video to your Smartphone.

The company mentions two new functions capable of “further expanding the pleasure of instant photography”: AR print, which through the app allows you to apply up to five different effects in augmented reality to images and create a print with a QR code. You can scan the QR code on the photo with your smartphone to see the AR content. You can also record your screen and share it on Social Media!

Next is Instax Connect, which, again through the application, allows you to impress messages and conversations on the shots. The app also allows you to import videos, to extract the perfect frame to print.
