Some time ago, I bought in on a Kickstarter for a new Lomo camera ... the Instant Square, using Fuji Instax SQ film as a base. It arrived a couple of weeks ago, but I had to order some film and get some CR2/CR2025 batteries (2x CR2 for the camera, 1x CR2025 for its IR remote). 

I finished my first pack of film yesterday. Just learning it... Of the ten exposures, I lost one (the print must have fallen out of my pocket) and four are, I think, reasonably representative of the quality this camera can produce. 

Here are the four snappies as examples:

For format comparison (sizing keeps to the relative pixel dimensions, same post-scan processing—just a minimal tone curve adjustment), here's a couple of prints out of a MiNT Polaroid SLR670a using older, Impossible 600 Color (gen3):

This Lomo camera is going to be fun! I hope Fuji creates a B&W version of the SQ film as well.
