Hybrid Camera Features
Hybrid cameras give the photographer the flexibility to choose which images to instantly print, which images to share, and which images to store for later access. WIDE Evo does all of that, in a new wide format body, and with a host of new and improved lens and film effects and modes to enhance the user experience even more. Furthermore, it uses instax WIDE film, our largest instax film format, that gives photographers greater flexibility with even more room to get creative with.

WIDE Evo outputs high-quality prints directly from the camera. Images can also be printed from a user's iOS or Android smartphone camera roll using the free instax WIDE Evo App. The app features remote shooting capabilities and additional image enhancement options. Additionally, to inspire creativity and encourage image sharing, the instax WIDE Evo App offers the newly introduced Discover Feed, which allows users to explore printed instax photos uploaded by other WIDE Evo users in a photo gallery format and view their lens, film, and degree effects and film style settings applied. Using Bluetooth, users can favorite the effects displayed and replicate the combinations on their camera via the App.
