Fujifilm's Instax Mini Evo 2 adds touchscreen controls and short video capture

Fujifilm has released the Instax Mini Evo 2, a hybrid camera that combines digital photography with a built-in instant printer. The successor to the original Mini Evo is designed to feel like a basic digital camera rather than a purely retro novelty. It adds a larger 1/2.77-inch sensor, replacing the 1/5-inch sensor of the first model, along with a bigger 4.5-inch rear display that supports touchscreen controls.
