Fujifilm is taking their popular line of instant cameras to the next level with the Instax Mini LiPlay. Its small size makes it the perfect on-the-go option for capturing memories. However, don't let its compact design deceive you. The Instax Mini LiPlay is filled with features that make it one of Fujifilm's most powerful instant cameras.

Available in three color options, the Mini LiPlay has a minimum focus distance at just 10 cm (3.9 inches) away from a subject. The rear, 2.7-inch color LCD screen makes it a breeze to take and select photos for printing. You can even get creative by adding fun frames and filters to your images. There are 30 frames and 6 filters to select from, giving you endless options to spice up your photos.

While cool visuals on your photos are fun, Fujifilm takes things up a notch by incorporating an audio option. Make your pictures talk by converting sound recordings into a QR code that is then printed directly on the Instax print. So if you want to send your long distance love a special note or a birthday wish to your best friend, all they need to do is scan the code to hear your voice.

Keeping things a streamlined as possible, the LiPlay doubles as a printer and can have your photo in your hand in just 12 seconds. You can even take advantage of the Instax Mini LiPlay's printing capabilities to transform any photo on your smartphone into an instant pic. All that it takes is connecting the instant camera to your phone via its built-in Bluetooth connection.

Other features include remote shooting via the Instax Mini LiPlay app, three shortcut buttons to store your favorite frames and filters, and a battery that allows for up to 100 prints on a single charge.

The Fujifilm Instax Mini LiPlay is available in Elegant Black, Blush Gold, and Stone White for $159.95.
