In today’s episode, we review Zinstax - a polaroid back for the Mamiya RZ67 that uses Fuji Instax Square film. The RZ67 is one of my favorite cameras and I got really excited when I heard about this new option to shoot Instax film with it. The back costs 290 Euro and cleverly combines a disassembled Fuji Instax Square with a 3D-printed Mamiya RZ67 mount.
Zinstax was designed and created by Han Chen, who studies Business Administration and Engineering in Aachen - a small city close to Cologne, Germany. I sat down with him for an interview via Zoom and put the polaroid back through its paces.
Curious about the back and wondering where to buy it? Reach out to Han Chen via his website https://zins.tax or email at hello@zins.tax
