Fujifilm Instax WIDE 400 JET Black Snabbkamera

Fujifilm Instax WIDE 400 JET Black — Wide-Format Instant Photography

The Fujifilm Instax WIDE 400 JET Black is a wide-format analog instant camera that prints life's largest moments straight from the body. Refreshed with the matte JET BLACK finish in March 2026, this is the first dedicated wide-format Instax camera in nearly a decade. It prints on double-card-sized Instax WIDE film — twice the area of Instax mini — ideal for group photos, landscapes, and compositions with negative space. Fully automatic exposure and flash mean no menus: twist the lens to power on, frame, and shoot.

What Sets the WIDE 400 Apart

What sets this camera apart is its combination of fully automatic exposure with a mechanical self-timer lever and a dedicated camera angle adjustment accessory — letting the photographer step into the frame without a tripod. The included close-up lens attachment snaps onto the 95mm retractable lens and brings the minimum focus distance down to 40 cm, with a small selfie mirror built in. Red Dot and iF Design Awards recognize its ergonomic grip and matte black finish.

Wide-Format Film for Larger Prints

This model uses Fujifilm Instax WIDE instant color film, sold separately in 10-sheet packs. Each print is significantly larger than standard Instax mini output.

• Film Format: instax WIDE (86 mm × 108 mm) — twice the area of Instax mini
• Picture Size: 62 mm × 99 mm — large enough for group shots and panoramas
• Develop Time: approximately 90 seconds — varies with ambient temperature

Automatic Lens and Exposure System

The retractable 95mm lens with a 1:14 aperture handles focus and exposure entirely on its own. The bundled close-up lens extends the minimum focus distance for tight portraits.

• Focal Length: 95 mm, 1:14 — fixed-aperture optic tuned for WIDE film
• Shooting Range: 0.9 m to 3 m (Normal), 3 m and beyond (Landscape), 40–50 cm (Close-up) — three focus zones
• Shutter Speed: 1/64 to 1/200 second — programmed electronic shutter, ISO 800

Battery Life, Flash, and Group-Shot Tools

Four AA alkaline batteries power roughly 100 prints per set, and the automatic flash recharges in seven seconds or less. The mechanical self-timer lever offers four countdown options.

• Battery: 4 × AA alkaline (LR6) — included, approximately 100 prints per set
• Flash: Automatic, effective range 0.9 m to 3 m — charges in 7 seconds or less
• Self-Timer: 4, 6, 8, or 10 seconds — analog-style lever with LED countdown

Who Should Pick Up the Instax WIDE 400 JET Black

The Instax WIDE 400 JET Black is the right choice for photographers who want physical prints large enough to share or frame — without the complexity of a digital workflow. Group-photo enthusiasts will appreciate the self-timer plus the bundled angle accessory, which remove the need for a tripod at parties and outdoor gatherings. Travel shooters benefit from the wide film format, which captures sweeping backgrounds and full groups in a single frame. Beginners get a fully automatic system with no menus, while experienced users gain a wide-format option that complements smaller Instax mini and Square cameras.

The Instax Lineage and the JET BLACK Release

Fujifilm launched the Instax instant photography system in 1998, and the brand has since expanded into more than 100 countries. Originally released in July 2024, the WIDE 400 was the first dedicated wide-format Instax camera in nearly ten years, replacing the long-running WIDE 300. The JET BLACK colorway was added in March 2026, bringing a matte, deep-black finish suited to both casual outdoor scenes and formal occasions.
