Miscellaneous / / October 06, 2023
Leica Company presented instant film camera Sofort 2. Seven years have passed since the release of the first model in this series.
The new product has a minimalistic design with a 3-inch screen. It takes pictures using a 1/5-inch CMOS sensor with a resolution of 4.9 megapixels.
The main feature of Sofort 2 is hybridity - users themselves choose what to print and what to leave in digital form. You can save pictures to the device memory or to a microSD card. It can also be used as a printer for frames from a smartphone and from the Leica Fotos application.
In terms of functionality, the new product is very similar to the Fujifilm Instax Mini Evo, which costs $200 (≈20,000 rubles). Sofort 2 is almost twice as expensive, but in contrast it offers several additional features - macro mode for close-up shooting, support for 10 different effects, compatibility with Instax Mini Evo cartridges and port USB Type-C.
Leica Sofort 2 will go on sale on November 9 and will be available in three colors - red, white and black. The camera was valued at $389 (≈39,000 rubles).
