There was another topic posted on this a while back but I couldn't locate it.

Been following the progress of the crowdfunding and they are actually shipping completed units.

They are also offering a discount for new orders until Feb 10 2019.

I'm tempted to order one, have some Instax gear and a good square pix gives a good 8x8 inch print.

They are a bit of nostalgic fun especially with my grandkids.

Has anyone here had any contact with the device?

Well that's a new one on me.

I reckon to read every word of every post in every thread on this forum, I would have remembered that innovative idea. It's a kinda Polaroid with slight enlargement from 35mm. 62mm sq. doesn't seem very large for a print, I do like sq. format.

There is a thread covering a crowd funded digital back for the RF and SLR Nikons but I seem to remember it failed?

Looks like another device like the Hasselblad polaroid backs that outputs onto instant print media.
Looks pretty bulky. Not sure if it works for me.

There was eFilm or Silicon Film idea of a digital back/film insert for some SLRs.

Robert, it's possible that I saw it on another site.

It is rather bulky, as are most of the cameras that use Instax film.

There shooting speed is on par with a flint lock musket, which is probably a good thing considering the one euro or more cost per exposure. :'(
