I've watched quite a few Lomography camera reviews and their viewfinders seem to be a consistent complaint in these otherwise interesting cameras. I would love to ask Lomography what they're thinking building these wonderful cameras with viewfinders that make the act of taking a photo more difficult than it needs to be. I really hope they address this in future releases.

Love seeing the channel grow. Analog resurgence tipped me off about the channel. Keep it up.

Coming in w the clutch review, thanks for peeping Kay! It can be a challenge to frame, but when you nail it, the results are HYPE.

These are amazing reviews! Looking to get into instant photography and they are really helping.

Ben, thank you for the best, most informative, entertaining, well made instant camera videos. I finally ordered this camera as a result of taking your advice, compared to some of the other reviews which vary from almost useless to obviously biased or made by inexperienced people who had no previous experience with cameras from past years - unlike myself. I'll be 74 in July and the Covid pandemic helped me decide to have a splurge and buy an SX70 renovated by Polaroid in memory of my original one from the 70's. My first camera was a Brownie 127 from which I learned a lot including development and enlarging which 120 film is great for! Then I got a Polaroid Swinger which I loved to death despite the film price and the smelly coating stick and then I got the 310 (I think it was) pack film camera which lasted me for over a decade because it was such an excellent device and in between Polaroids I also tried various 35mm snapshot and SLR cameras with the last, a Honeywell Pentax being the best by far. You really need an array of cameras to make the most of your photographic opportunities but Polaroid was always my first choice. Okay so after that back story, here's my thoughts on the camera you just introduced.

@mikedench1110

As you know, I purchased the Lomography Instant Square Glass and have been waiting for the batteries, well they arrived today! The markings that show which way to load the batteries (+ or -) are almost invisibly small and the metal contacts give no clue either. However if you look carefully at the battery cover, one side has two parallel lines which seem to suggest that the stud end goes there and so it was whilst the other goes in stud down. Pay attention to the reviews that moan about the viewfinders being offset, because it is, but one bad shot should be enough to understand how to make allowances. The cameras auto settings work very well so if you are shooting indoors be mindful of the brightness of nearby light bulbs and perhaps turn the closest ones off because the result will be better. Take a self portrait using the tiny mirror and make sure you are centred in it and the result will demonstrate how offset the lense light path is. We both made that mistake on our first shots. Its all the warning you require. Now what I will do is mark out an alignment grid on a piece of foam board and take a picture being careful to centre it in the viewfinder and the result will show how nuch offset is required. Also as I said before, a simple, crude wire frame rectangle taped above the lense, should allow you to centre each shot perfectly especially if you check it using the foamboard sighting lines. Actually you'll very quickly learn to get the position right, it took me two shots to get the hang of that minor niggle. Other than that, its a really sweet camera and treated with care should be very satisfactory. The Fujifilm Instax Square film produces gorgeous colour with accurate skin tones and the glass lense is very sharp. I am delighted with my initial results and look forward to further experimenting. Unless you are a tad clueless you should have no problems with this unique device. Just don't make assumptions because knowing previous cameras doesnt mean you'll know all about this one.

Thanks for the great review of this camera! I’ve been looking for a new instant film camera for years and could never make up my mind between depending a good amount on Fuji film or spending more for a Polaroid camera, though the latter’s film isn’t available in my town.

I purchased my Pigalle version a week ago and started messing with it last weekend. I love it! I have an SX-70 and have taken some great outdoor shots with both. It is a challenge to use the view finder and the focus gives me some issues but I am getting the hang of it.

The Lomo’Instant Square is the only Lomography Instant camera that I found not to show lens flare, those white half circles. And yes the viewfinder is difficult, also the focus setting, but I like it. Took it twice into museums and the guards said, hey that’s a beautiful camera. I also have the Pigalle version. When I got it I took a picture with it and the same with my Polaroid SLR680. The photo is sharp and has the perfect Instax colors. The Polaroid is also quit sharp but different color rendering and is much bigger. I like them both, it’s just a matter of personal taste which one to use depending on the actual need at that moment. Keep on the good reviews and I’m already looking for the next video.

Nice Video! Does this camera produce equally good results with black and white film?

I'm super stuck man. I want instax wide 300 but the options are so mellow and simple. On the other hand, this camera seems sick as shit and I can understand the options and am somewhat spatially competent, but never shot with an instant camera before. Would you say that it is "easy" to get used to the viewfinder and such? If so what are some tips on exposure balance, maybe some "if outside, minus exposure compensation" tips, ya know? (as from what I know, without using exposure compensation people tend to get over/under exposed photos on the lomo square)

I wouldn't say they're very comparable. The Polaroid Now is much, much simpler to use, and will give you a higher chance of executing the picture you intended. But the Lomo'Instant Square uses the less expensive Instax Square film, so if in the long run you are concerned about that, the Lomo will be cheaper on the back end. I think the Lomo'Instant Square can produce more technically proficient pictures, but will do so on a smaller print and requires a lot more trial and error.

Is it not one of the aims of Lomography that the camera produce quirky, unpredictable results. Is that not part of the fascination and charm of Lomography? Just been reading up on it but that's what is sound like to me. Would be interested in opinions.

Then, out of the blue, they stopped making the film, and suddenly we were left, abandoned with a great camera, all dressed and nowhere to go. No Sir, not again.
