The Instax Mini LiPlay is smartphone compatible with remote shooting capabilities. The lightweight camera has a 2.7" rear color LCD screen, so users can view their image before printing. The photo can also be personalized with a user-friendly menu, six fun filters and 30 frame options. Moreover, this hybrid gadget lets users record up to 10 seconds of audio for selected images, which is converted to a QR code printed on the image.
