Still not decided between the red or black version. I was reading the product specifications at Leica and it’s not clear if the Sofort 2 can be used while charging on the go with a powerbank. Have you any experience?
@cris_photography
@cris_photography 9 ай бұрын
Both colors are amazing indeed! Honestly don’t think you’ll need to charge it while using it. You can shoot over 100 photos on one charge (that’s a lot) and maybe even more. Takes 2.5 hours to charge fully. Didn’t try though so can’t tell sorry. Take care

Nice video of the Sofort 2. It's a collaboration between Leica and Fujifilm. The instax mini Evo looks a bit like a small X100 camera while the Leica Sofort 2, for my taste, has a nicer design. As with the first version of the Leica Sofort it is noticeable that there is not a single screw to be seen. There is with a mini 90 or mini Evo, though. A hybrid device indeed has many advantages. The Sofort will be available at a (considerable) higher price, but if you like it, and can afford it, get one. An instant camera is such a lot of fun guaranteed. I am tempted...

The EVO is cool - however beware as after a while the rollers can loosen and all your prints will be black - I have had three now - all under warranty - I am a pro and use this for many things and do print a lot of pics - can't say wether this will happen with the Leica but one assumes the tech is the same - as for effects the Fuji has a few more up its sleeve as by turning the front lens you can access a few more and you can combine them with the ones in the sub menu

Great review! It is however, disappointing that the battery is not changeable. Eventually the battery is going to die, then what? The camera is a great idea, but what good is it when the battery goes? And it will eventually go... This is in no way a negative reflection of your review.
@cris_photography
@cris_photography 8 ай бұрын
Hello! Thanks. It ain't a bad point on my review for a couple reasons: a) the battery can be changed if sent back to Leica b) I have had cameras like this one for years (over 10) and am still using the original battery. That means that by the time the battery cannot be used anymore (and we're not talking an SL2 or any other high performance camera here) the camera might become obsolete and/or am sure you can find someone that will replace it (it's kinda like looking at the batteries we currently use on any camera and thinking that in a few years from now they won't be produced anymore anyway - know what I mean?) It's the same as for the Fuji Evo, with the difference that the Leica version costs more than double. Take care

Is there any difference in image quality between these digital hybrid cameras than a purely analog instant film cameras? The vintage analog look of the instant pictures is what we like about our old instax but it would be nice to pick and choose the images that come out. Just don't want photos that look "digital" if that makes sense.
@cris_photography
@cris_photography 7 ай бұрын
To be honest, it is not the same feeling when you can chose the "best" photo and the printing of the older ones (with no screen) seem a little more "analog" to me. That said, this brings a lot of creative possibilities to the table vs the older models. Cheers

@@cris_photography By poor i mean: 1) the concept about being the exactly same product without adding anything different to justify the project. 2) Style - as you also pointed out looks more like an ordinary instax camera for kids but with a more expensive price tag (if the price was less it would be understandable and not like a cheap generic plastic camera). 3) Leica has this premium stylish and unique concept because it is Leica, this camera has nothing like that sadly, meaning when you touch, hold any LEICA you can feel THIS IS LEICA and not a camera because the brand gives this feeling.

@Edvanfleury very true on the Leica quality. I guess it’s more of a “I can do I buy this instead of Fuji” type of thing for most.
