Leica's hybrid instant camera — digital screen with instant print capability and 28mm equiv lens.
The Leica SOFORT 2 was released approximately 2023 as Leica's second-generation instant film camera, updating the original SOFORT. Uses Fujifilm Instax Mini film format, sharing film compatibility with the Fujifilm instax Mini range. Fixed lens — no interchangeable mount.
Instax Mini film format (credit-card sized prints). Fixed lens. Manual and automatic exposure modes. Self-timer. Electronic viewfinder. Multiple shooting modes including portrait, macro, landscape, and party settings. USB-C charging. At approximately 270g. Fixed lens — no interchangeable mount.
The SOFORT 2 adds features absent from the original SOFORT, including USB-C charging, a self-timer, and additional shooting modes. The Instax Mini film compatibility means film is widely available at standard retail prices, unlike Leica-proprietary instant film formats. The Leica SOFORT branding positions it above standard Fujifilm instax Mini cameras in aesthetics and finish.
On the used market the Leica SOFORT 2 is a premium instant film camera using Instax Mini film. Condition checks: shutter actuation function (test with live film), film ejection mechanism, USB-C charging, lens for marks, exposure mode selector operation. Film cost is ongoing; Instax Mini film is widely available. Fixed lens — no interchangeable mount.
