Fujifilm's family of instant cameras has a new member, with the launch of the Instax Square SQ1. As the name suggest, this model uses the Instax Square instant film format - which provides a larger image than the most popular Instax Mini film pack – providing an image area that measures 62x62mm.

The camera is being introduced with two new Instax Square film types - a Monochrome pack, and a Rainbow pack that provides color images with a dark-colored border.
