We are pleased to announce that the instax mini Evo Cinema hybrid instant camera has been selected as one of TIME’s Best Inventions of 2026 in the Consumer Electronics category. This is the second consecutive year Fujifilm has been named to TIME’s Best Inventions list, with the instax WIDE Evo hybrid instant camera selected in 2025. Earlier this year, Fujifilm was recognized as a TIME100 Most Influential Company and named an industry leader in the hardware sector.
“TIME’s Best Inventions of 2026” highlights emerging fields such as AI, apps and software, connectivity and communication, manufacturing and materials, medical and healthcare, and more, with nominations submitted by TIME’s editors and correspondents worldwide. Each product or idea is evaluated based on several key criteria, including originality, efficacy, ambition, and impact.
The instax mini Evo Cinema can capture both still images and videos. It converts captured video data into a QR code and creates an instax print together with a still image cut out from the video, allowing users to “hand over a video.” In its Best Inventions of 2026 list, TIME commented “So you love your Instax, but miss being able to capture a quick video; the Fujifilm instax Mini Evo Cinema offers oodles of analog charm in a digital friendly package.”
We will continue to expand the world of the instax instant photo system that allows people to enjoy on-the-spot photo printing.
