The Fujifilm Instax Mini 12 instant camera is a great gift at $74

Although our phones are all equipped with cameras, there is still something special about being able to immediately produce a printed photo to pass around or give as a gift. If that’s something that appeals to you, the Fujifilm Instax Mini 12 instant camera is a great gift idea, and it’s now on sale at Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy for about $73.99 (down from $93.99), nearly matching its all-time low of $73.

We picked it as our overall best instant camera for most people due to its relatively high image quality, handy twist-to-zoom lens, and a larger-than-average viewfinder, which will make it easier to take the perfect photo. It’s not perfect, of course — for one thing, you can’t disable the flash — but if you want to experience the joys and problems of simple print photography, this is a good choice.

Be aware, however, that unless you plan to pick it up at your local Target, you may not get it in time for Christmas. You should be able to take photos of your New Year’s celebration, though.
