    • @WillLangston
      @WillLangston  Před rokem +6

      Hey! 👋 Okay, so what your describing is called an ‘overexposed’ photo. There could be a few reasons for this:
      1.) The wrong setting was chosen: If you have an older Instax model, like the Mini 9, you may have chosen the wrong setting and need to set it to the correct one.
      2.) The film was already exposed to light: You May have opened the back door for a second and let light leak inside and overexpose the image.
      3.) Your subject is too bright: Because Instax film is ISO800 by default, you may be shooting in too bright a situation. If this is this case then you must wait until earlier or later in the day when it is a little darker out.
      Hope this helps and thank you so much for watching! 📸🙏

    Hypothetically; if you put that back in the camera; and pressed the button; would the picture come out undamaged or would the new picture "overlap" due to it being exp)osed to light again? I've seen a few magic tricks using pre-shot flims. Not sure how to explain it, but I hope you understand.

    • @WillLangston
      @WillLangston  Před rokem

      Hello and thanks for watching: once the film is fully exposed to light like these you cannot take a double exposure. However, it is is possible to shoot a double exposure with Instax but very tricky! I’ll try to post a short about how to do that soon!

    Does instant camera work without film box and when I searched in Amazon the film boxes are to expensive,by the way can we select the photo we want to print ,does this instant camera has a memory card so that we can see our photos ... sorry for asking these many questions 😅😅

    • @WillLangston
      @WillLangston  Před rokem +1

      Hey! Yes, you need a film box to take photos. This is analog and not digital so it does not have a memory card. It completely works on chemicals instead of digital functions 😊 Hope that helps! 📸

    • @kittyrules995

      im pretty sure there is 2 in 1 cameras that let you choose which photo you want to print, but theyre more expensive. (i think its called the instax mini liplay)
      there is also instax printers which let you print photos from your phone.
      but you will still need film for both :)
