instantphoto.eu Fuji Instax Mini 50 Accessory Holder
This page describes how to make a standard adapter for the Fuji Instax Mini 50.
The
base is a colour filter for the Instax Mini 50, which comes from a set
of 4, available on internet and auction sites. There are variants for
the differnt models. The second is a standard adapter 28mm to 52mm. I
chose 52mm, as I own numerous accessories in 52mm, however any other
size would be possible as well.
On
the first go I took out the filter, it's just clipsed into the white
holder, and then I glued the 28mm adapter into the opening via 2-part
epoxy resin. Result: very slight vignetting in normal mode and slight
vignetting in landscape mode.
Sanding.
On
the second go (after disassembling) I sanded down the holder by a good
mm. New gluing with 2-part epoxy resin and it's all fine.

The new filter adapter.
With a Cokin filter holder and a special effects filter.
There
you are. Yes, I did try the same procedure with a filter for the Instax
Wide 210. However, there is heavy vignetting, even after sanding. So
you have to find a different way of fixing. I'm working on it.
