There is a Kickstarter project to produce a back for Hasselblad V series cameras that uses Fuji Instax film. The Kickstarter goal was $20,000 US dollars. They hit their goal in 2 hours! They have now collected over US $250,000! Looks like there is still a fair amount of love out there for the old V system!
The price of the back in US dollars appears too be around US $230. It looks like fun! And heck, who doesn't like to just have fun with their photography from time to time?
It looks like the project is close to completion and that the prototype is working.

Am not sure where this one is at but if I had access to a Hasselblad, I would want to use the bigger area.

Or use it on a Mamiya and get the full area.... :)
