The Diana Mini is a plastic camera from Lomography styled to resemble the Diana, but shrunken in size. As a camera designed for 35mm film, it provides an automatic frame counter (rather than the red window of the original); and it discreetly hides a rewind crank on the bottom of the camera. The Mini has a selector to switch from 24×24mm square format to 17×24mm (half-frame) images.

The Mini has sockets on the top of the camera which can accept the same flash used with the Diana F+.
