How did picture quality improved (if at all)? I have a 300 and a 200, both with problems in the lens assembly part, so this would be a modification I could make. But I am reluctant to do it just for the joy of modifying as I have two fully functional 100 too and if the picture quality becomes no better than with the original lens I for myself see no point in the effort.
hi sean, i circumvented the circuitry and turned the Instax shutter release into a motor button. It cycles the film through the rollers. But the timing is manual.

None are available with the point and shoot Instax Wide cameras.
You won't miss these functions, if you're not aware or don't care.
With my setup, I'm using glass as opposed to plastic lenses. And I hate flashes or flashes that fire by default in low light.
If none of those things matter, and none of those options even occur to you, I would agree, don't change the camera.
Fuji has a lot of smart folk who have optimized the camera for a baseline user and they work day in and day out perfectly.
I'm not saying my mod is better than stock. But I prefer it.
I'd just like to know what you did about the circuitry?
