| There’s been a lot of talk about Fuji Instax cameras of late because Instant photography is making a comeback! But for now we say, “less of the chat more of the Cheki on Cheki combat!” It’s ON. There are 2 new Cheki cameras in the Lomography ring this time. Let us introduce our two contenders: the razor-sharp Instax Mini Cheki 25 and the smaller but totally savage Instax Mini Cheki 55i. We have set team Cheki 55 and team Cheki 25 a total of 4 challenges to complete. But first let’s take a look at their vital statistics. |

| When you are in the thick of the action – there is no better companion than an instant camera. But how did these Chekis do when they were challenged to get the best action shots? * The Cheki 55’s consecutive shooting function was the clear winner here as it allows you to get 2 sequential shots, one after the other. |
| Chekis are perfect for documenting crazy things you have seen and done. So this challenge is a simple evidence gathering exercise. We told our Cheki teams to go out and bring back proof of something unbelievable. *It’s a tie – both Cheki’s have proved the King is alive! |
| Find me someone who doesn’t like to take a self-portraits and I’ll show you a big, furry fibber! Now that we’ve got that straight, the best thing is when you can get all your friends in on the shot too. We challenged our teams to see how many people they could fit perfectly in the frame, as well as themselves… *The Cheki Mini 25 did very well in this challenge due to its unique self-shoot mirror. |
We challenged our Cheki teams to a race. Who could move the camera 100m without using their hands. CHECK OUT THE FULL CHALLENGE CHEKI GALLERY |
