Fujifilm is making it easy to print these memories with the release of the latest Instax Mini Link 3 printer. The Mini Link 3 is the third generation of the popular Instax Mini Link series of printers and brings two new functions to the table – Instax AiR Studio and Click to Collage.
The new Instax Mini Link 3 now includes Instax AiR Studio which enables users to decorate their prints with 3D augmented reality (AR) effects. This is done via the Mini Link app before a photo is taken with the smartphone.
Users have a variety of options when using Instax AiR Studio, including choosing a background template, adding decorative imagery like balloons, hearts and garlands, and even animated effects or a photo stored on the smartphone. The app also offers Remote Live View, with this function allowing users to share their screen with others while shooting by scanning a QR code in the app with another smartphone.
Another new feature is Click to Collage, an easy way for users to create collage prints from a series of photos, much in a similar manner to an old school photo booth.
For the new printer body design, Fujifilm added bright pastel LEDs on the front panel which helps indicate the functionality of the Mini Link 3, including printing status and battery level. This smartphone printer is small and highly portable, weighing just 210g, with an optional carry case also available. It prints out in Mini format within 15 seconds with prints taking about 90 seconds to fully develop. On a full charge of the built-in Lithium-Ion battery, the Mini Link 3 can print up to 100 instant Mini prints.
