Updated with a brighter, clearer viewfinder, along with an enhanced exposure control-set, the InstantFlex TL70 2.0 is the second iteration of the TL70 from MiNT, which pairs the classic form and function of a TLR yet has the unique distinction of using instax mini instant film. Featuring a completely manual set of exposure controls, along with a 61mm f/5.6 triplet lens, this camera affords a broad range of creative control during shooting, including timed shutter speeds from 1 to 1/500 sec, bulb shooting for up to 10 seconds, and a choice of aperture settings from f/5.6 to f/22. A creatively-shaped f/bokeh setting can also be used to produce distinctly-shaped out-of-focus highlights when using selective focus techniques, and manual focus control lets you photograph subjects as close as 1.6' away. The twin lens reflex design avails a waist-level optical viewfinder for composing and focusing, and both a bottom tripod mount and neck strap holders are integrated for additional shooting stability. The viewfinder has been updated for this version 2.0 edition, and now incorporates a Fresnel Super Viewfinder, that is rated to be five times brighter, along with a 32% larger magnifier for more focusing precision. Also unique to TLR designs, an electronic flash is featured above the viewing lens to provide additional illumination to a scene. Pairing the celebrated TLR design with a fun and contemporary film format, the InstantFlex TL70 2.0 is a unique shooting option that allows you to also mix creativity and control.

- Manual exposure control is possible, with shutter speed adjustment from 1-1/500 sec, or up to 10 seconds in Bulb mode, and aperture settings are available from f/5.6 to f/22. Additionally, a +/- 1 EV exposure compensation setting can also be used for creatively over- or under-exposing imagery.
- A unique non-circular f/bokeh setting is available to produce creatively-shaped out-of-focus highlights.
- A built-in ambient light meter is used to ensure consistent and accurate exposure results.
