Post bored internet super sleuth shoppers.
help me find this camera, only not for $35 shipping.

Fuji Instax Mini 7

i am ok w/ the price, but don't want to pay almost double to have it shipped.
I like the pink one, but don't care that much about color.

this is a canadian store-i don't know if it woudl be free to ship to the US.

this camera isn't sold in the US, so I might just get stuck paying the overseas shipping, just thought i'd see what could be found

really? cool! how does it compare to polaroid cameras (if you've used them) I'm looking for something to replace the polaoid that will soon be missing from my life RIP> :(

you can get film at specialty shops, but i have heard this is due to patenting restrictions put in place by polaroid who (up until this week) wanted to keep the monopoly on instant film---however, this may all change soon since they stopped making it. we shall see. nonetheless, i'm looking for a good replacement! too bad no one sells any in the US.

It's cool because
no folding required to put away. To turn on just pull out the lens and start taking pics. When you take a pic, like a polaroid, the film comes out but not from the front. It starts feeding out from the top. And thats it. Wait for the picture to appear and put it in your album.
The picture itself is small enought to fit your wallet. So you can take it anywhere and show your friends. Here is the size of the photo I had a bar owners kid take for me.

Now I need to get one!!!!....damn it...I miss taking them pictures.

Oh also, the one your looking at is kinda old model. It's the same one I had and I got it about 6 years ago. They got a better one now that has a better flash and it lights up!!!! Here is the pic of the newest one, even tho it's about 4 years old. I don't think they have made a new model yet.
