Finally, it has a proper home!

There’s enough space for the Instax Mini unit and probably a box or two of films.

I bought this pink Hamburger Bag from Polaroid PH for P750, exclusive of delivery fee.

It comes with a strap. I find the strap a bit flimsy though, but it will do :)

Zippered all around.

You can use it as a belt bag, too.

It fits the following Fuji Instax Cameras: Mini 7S / 20 / 25 / 50 / 55 and comes in Black, Pink, Dark Blue and Light Blue.

They have other bag designs (the leather ones are soooo nice, but so expensive!) and Instax Mini accessories as well.

Unfortunately, my hubby bought it in Taiwan when he went there for a business trip and to be honest, I really have no idea if it’s available here in Manila. You can, however, buy online and have it shipped if you’re *really* desperate.

But I’ve been researching and I’ve come across this local website that sells Fuji Instax Cameras and other Toy Film Cameras as well.

The website is the Lomo Loco Shop.

If you want an Instax Mini though, you can order from Instax Manila and Polaroid PH Lomo Loco Shop for the price of PHP4,000 and prices range from Php4,000 to Php7,000 depending on which model you get. The shop has it in Blue, Pink, Choco and White. You can also buy Instax Mini Films but I find them a bit pricey at PHP780 Php800 for a Twin Pack (2 packs of 10 films).

If I remember correctly, I bought my Instax Mini Films at 220NT (Php330) per pack in Taiwan. But THEN you’d have to go to Taiwan. Or if you know anyone from Taiwan, you can ask them to ship it here to Manila. It’s also available in Singapore. I remember seeing a couple of shops selling films in Sim Lim, though I wasn’t able to ask how much the films were.

But if you’re not going to Taiwan or Singapore any time soon, then PHP780 PHP800 seems reasonable enough if you factor in travel fare or shipping fee.

Aside from selling cameras, the website also sells films for Holga and Diana cameras.

I haz a new toy! Guess what it is! *points to the photo above*

Yay, you got that right, it’s the new limited edition Hello Kitty Instax Mini 25! I’m still giddy-happy so here I am posting about it! This awesome little gadget is given by the fiance. I personally think it’s a bribery of some sort. Maybe to make up for the sad, lonely nights he made me go thru when he was in Taiwan last week for a business trip, hehe.

Well, I won’t complain because I totally looooove it. I have an obsession with Polaroids and instant films. Don’t get me wrong, digital cameras are probably one of the best inventions of all time, but there’s just something really nostalgic with analog film photos!

Anyway, the Hello Kitty Instax Mini 25 package comes with the following:

• a white Hello Kitty Instax Mini camera
• 2 x Panasonic CR2 Lithium batteries
• a close-up lens for focusing from 35cm
• a manual (which unfortunately isn’t in English!) and a little booklet
• a sheet of Hello Kitty stickers
• and a red strap

I’m not sure if it came with any Instax Mini films. There wasn’t any included in the box, but the fiance bought me 2 boxes of 10s (I wish he bought more… hehe!)

I’ve used up 3 shots already and I’m saving the other shots when a special occasion comes up! Like what my sister said, “Make the shots count!”

Where to buy: Japan Gadget Shop / Amazon
Price: around $150 (but I’m pretending I don’t know how much it costs, hehe)
