Iconic Design Meets Modern Convenience
The Instax Mini 41 redefines the classic instant camera look with its sophisticated, textured body and subtle metallic-like finish, accented with vibrant orange details. This isn’t just a camera; it’s a fashion statement, built with a tactile grip for comfortable handling and a robust feel. Its sleek and demure design offers a refreshing alternative to the more playful aesthetics of other Instax models, making it ideal for those who appreciate timeless elegance.
Effortless Shooting for Perfect Prints
Forget complicated settings! The Fujifilm Instax Mini 41 is engineered for maximum impact with minimum effort.5 It features Automatic Exposure Control, which intelligently adjusts the shutter speed (from 1/2 to 1/250 sec) and flash output to the ambient lighting conditions.6 This ensures that every photo you take is perfectly exposed, whether you’re indoors or outdoors, in bright sunshine or dim light. The built-in flash fires automatically for optimal illumination, making it a reliable companion even in challenging low-light scenarios.
Selfie Simplicity and Close-Up Brilliance
Capturing the perfect selfie or a detailed close-up has never been easier. The Instax Mini 41 incorporates a built-in Selfie Mirror positioned conveniently next to the lens, allowing you to perfectly frame your self-portraits before you shoot.8 To activate the dedicated Close-up Mode, simply twist the lens barrel one step – this not only adjusts the focus but also benefits from Parallax Correction.9 This advanced feature automatically adjusts the viewfinder’s focus mark to align precisely with the actual printout area when shooting close-ups (from 0.3m to 0.5m), minimizing off-center subjects and ensuring your photos are exactly as you envisioned them.
Signature Instax Mini Film & Instant Gratification
The Fujifilm Instax Mini 41 utilizes the widely available Fujifilm Instax Mini instant film (sold separately), producing credit-card sized prints (62mm x 46mm image area) that are perfect for sharing, scrapbooking, or decorating.11 Photos eject automatically after capture and develop in approximately 90 seconds, providing that satisfying, tangible instant gratification that only instant cameras can offer. There’s no need to shake or shield the print; simply watch your memory come to life.
Power and Portability
Powered by two readily available AA-size alkaline batteries (LR6), the Instax Mini 41 is always ready for your next adventure. A fresh set of batteries provides enough power for approximately 10 Instax Mini film packs (100 exposures), making it an economical choice for continuous fun. Its compact dimensions (104.5mm × 122.5mm × 67.5mm) and lightweight design (345g without batteries, film, and strap) make it incredibly portable, fitting easily into your bag or backpack.12 An included hand strap adds an extra layer of security.
