Instant photography holds a certain charm, and the Instax Mini cameras are a great way to experience it. But the heart of the Instax experience lies in the film itself. Today, we’re reviewing the 20-Sheet Instax Mini Film Photo Paper (D11355—L), a pack of white film designed for various FujiFilm Instax Mini models. I’ve put this film through its paces, capturing everything from candid shots to carefully composed portraits, to give you a comprehensive and honest review.

This 20-sheet pack of Instax Mini film (D11355—L) is specifically designed for use in popular FujiFilm Instax Mini cameras like the 7s, 8, 25, 90, 70, 11, and 9. The packaging is clear and easy to understand, with instructions readily visible. The cartridge itself slides into the camera smoothly, a key feature for a seamless shooting experience. The ISO 800 rating is standard for Instax Mini film, promising good performance even in moderately low-light conditions. The white background ensures that your photos stand out crisply.

In my testing, I found the image quality to be consistent with other Instax Mini films. The colors are vibrant, although slightly softer than some other brands. The grain is noticeable, but not overly distracting, adding to that characteristic instant photography aesthetic. I took photos both indoors and outdoors, in various lighting conditions, and the results were generally pleasing. The film performed well in bright sunlight, producing bright and well-exposed images. In lower light situations, the images were understandably a bit darker, but the details were still reasonably well-preserved. The ease of loading was indeed a highlight; the film cartridge slipped in effortlessly without any jams or issues. I encountered no issues with the film’s reliability. Each shot was printed cleanly and perfectly. Overall performance is satisfactory.
