I have it almost a year and up to now only took some test shots. Can confirm that the glass lens is sharp and the vignetting is less pronounced compared to the kit lens. Interesting to see the result of the tele lens, I did not buy it due I expected it would deliver unsatisfactory photos.
Good to hear about the glass lens. I will have to buy it eventually, the problem is that here in Switzerland they want $45 for shipping on the $50 lens. It just feels wrong. I am planning to test out the Diana lot more, its fun.
what is bob mode? If the lenses have plastic bodies, when you rotate for focal length do you see much distortion on the exposure and does it follow with the focal setting?
The "bob" mode is BULB mode (it just means that the shutter is open as long as you are holding the shutter button. Not much distorsion visible, the Instax does not really need a super high quality lens.
To use bulb mode, you have to set your shot, put the lens cap on, press the shutter and place that piece in. Then remove the lens cap. When you’re done, just pull out that piece and the shutter will close. You could also replace the lens cap first.
This is an awesome video!! It’s really detail and you go over everything, I just ordered mine, so I’m really excited!!
Hope you enjoy it!
