On the back of the film door is a small window which you can use to see if there is indeed any film loaded on the back - this is good to know just as a double reminder not to open the back of the film door with film inside it - if you do, then any remaining film will be exposed to light and ruined. Once you’re ready, close the film door - you’ll need to fire off the shutter release to eject the film pack’s protective film first and you’re good to go. Loading Instax film is very easy - all you need to do is open the rear door and line-up the yellow mark on the film pack with a reasonably obvious notch on the camera body. When you switch on the camera, the front lens elements extends from the body of the camera - a switch on the top of the camera can be used to switch it on and off. It’s also considerably cheaper than the Lomo’Instant Square too. It’s also much quicker to go from the off position, to the on position, with everything fully automated with no need to manually extend any part of the camera before you get going. The camera is also much smaller than the only other fully analogue camera currently on the market using the Instax Square format film - the Lomo’Instant Square. While you’re certainly not going to be able to squeeze this in your pocket, when switched off, you can happily fit it into a small bag or similar.
