Under the switch you have the little battery chamber. And finally, on the backside it has a first digital screen on a Fujifilm model camera, it’s a TFT colour LCD monitor so you can edit and process images to create just the look you want. The split display allows you to view images and print them as displayed on the screen. Underneath the screen you have a circular dial with a menu button in middle of it to make various adjustments. Overall the design is very practical, it gives you both modern and retro feel.
Performance:
The centre lens allows easy shooting from any angle for accurate recreation of the composition of your shot. The Square doesn’t shoot straight to instant film, though, but instead uses a very small digital image sensor that captures 1,920×1,920-pixel images about 3.6 megapixels. With a flip of a switch, you can choose to have every picture you take printed — like an analog instant film camera — or you can capture a shot and decide if you want a print fact after . And, since all shots are stored straight to internal memory it’ll hold up to 50 photos or an optional microSD card. Use the command dial to perform all operations from editing and processing to printing while looking at the monitor, so that your photos come out just the way you want them. Equipped with date selection function. A digital zoom of up to 2.4x can be applied to prints. You can also attach a tripod with SQ10. The camera takes around 2 hrs for full charge.
Verdict: Express your creativity in an instant, with stunning direct prints from the new hybrid instax SQUARE SQ10. This camera lets you capture those ‘once in a lifetime’ memories and moments beautifully, in a stylish square format.
