The '''Diana Instant Square''' is an [[instant camera]] from '''[[Lomography]]''' styled to resemble and function similar to the [[Diana]], but using '''[[Instax film|Instax Square film]]''' format. The camera is notable as it is the first Instax camera which can use an external flash unit (either the Diana F+ flash unit or any hotshoe flash). It also shares the interchangeable lens mount of the Diana F+, allowing it to use any of the Lomography Diana F+ lenses. It however does not support the original Diana F+ Splitzer. Like all of Lomography's other Diana series cameras, it is fully manual and lacks any metering. Unlike the Diana F+ the camera has a detachable viewfinder, which can be replaced for different lenses.
