Improved shutter and aperture mechanisms lend easier, more intuitive control and reliable exposure results.
Accepts instax mini instant film to produce credit card-sized prints.
Triplet 61mm f/5.6 lens features aspherical elements to reduce spherical aberrations for sharper, clearer imagery and a magnesium fluoride coating has also been applied to reduce flare and ghosting for increased contrast.
Manual focus control is available from 1.6' to infinity.
Manual exposure control is possible, with shutter speed adjustment from 1-1/500 sec, or up to 10 seconds in Bulb mode, and aperture settings are available from f/5.6 to f/22. Additionally, a +/- 1 EV exposure compensation setting can also be used for creatively over- or under-exposing imagery.
A unique non-circular f/bokeh setting is available to produce creatively-shaped out-of-focus highlights.
A built-in ambient light meter is used to ensure consistent and accurate exposure results.
An electronic flash is incorporated into the front of the camera to provide additional illumination when working in difficult lighting conditions.
In addition to resembling a classic TLR, the camera is also finished with an appealing matte black textured housing, brushed chromium metallic frame, and soft leatherette wrap.

What's the best way to convert the instant prints to digital and maintain the best quality? Scanner, phone app, specific instax device?
Asked by: Timothy
With images shot on the InstantFlex TL70 2.0 Instant Film Camera, the best way to convert them to digital images would be to scan them. One such scanner to consider is the Epson Perfection V850 Pro Scanner, BH # EPV850. https://bhpho.to/3k98cMv
