New Olympus XZ-1 is a 10-megapixel camera featuring a compact premium 28-112mm equivalent f/1.8-2.5 zoom lens ultra-bright, high resolution OLED screen 3-inch and 1/1.63 inch CCD imager with sensor-shift image stabilization.

innovative but extremely compact automatic 35mm camera from 1979, Olympus XZ-1 is actually a proposition offers manual control is much more serious control over the process of shooting. Similar in both size and weight for Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX5, the-XZ 1 are quite slim but the affair made from a combination of metal and plastic. Camera grip was surprisingly less well in hand, thanks to wise ideas such as a small thumb rest, but also placed on the rear panel.
Design work to be functional and classy at the same time, with the front plate remains almost minimalist which includes dial click-stops are very useful around the lens housing, a plate of hot shoe displays, power button, shutter release, mode dial and zoom lever, and a rear panel is dominated by resolution, high gorgeous OLED screen. Important element of design is the rear wheel controls about four-way pad, which is used to set the shutter speed in manual mode, exposure compensation in a number of other modes, and can also be used to navigate menus. This camera is a little too large to be carried comfortably in your pocket or jeans, but will be happy to go into a small belt bag or jacket pocket.
Subjects insulating side, the greatest benefit from super-fast lens - combined with sensor-shift image stabilization - is the ability to take hand-held pictures in low light, without having to dial in a crazy-high ISO settings for sensitivity. This is important, because 1/1.63 "CCD - although larger than the imaging chip is built into most-point and-shoot - still very small compared with sensors that can be used on DSLR.
Another major attraction of the Olympus XZ-1 is a full manual exposure mode, complete with live histogram and raw file support. This mode is very well applied in the XZ-1, and therefore tend to be the preferred shooting mode for advanced users. In M mode, the button click-stop housing encircling the aperture control lens, while shutter speed can be adjusted with the scroll wheel around the four-way pad. To avoid accidentally hitting this wheel, you must first press the Up button on the navigation bar before you can modify the shutter speed settings. Histogram of life - and helps grid composition - can be activated by the Info button. Fly in this ointment is that the camera does not offer direct-access buttons for ISO sensitivity settings. You must enter a menu function - called "life control" by Olympus - to do that. It was embarrassing, especially considering that there seems to be just enough free space for dedicated ISO button on the Playback button on the four-way pad.
Art settings on the mode dial lets you choose from a half dozen filters Art that includes Pop Art, Diorama, rough film, Soft Focus, pinhole and Drama Tone. Optimum shooting settings programmed for each filter, and you have very little control over the final look. Because of this, it's worth shooting RAW + JPEG, because the raw files can be changed later if you do not like the effect. You can see some examples of this filter works of art in the Image Quality section of this review.
Perhaps more interesting is the setting for serious shooters Custom Mode, denoted by "C" on the mode dial. This allows you to retrieve saved settings, which is great if you often find yourself shooting in the same condition. To save your current settings, go to the setup menu, select Mode Custom Setup, and press Set.

Olympus XZ-1 terbukti kamera kecil yang hebat, menyediakan akses mudah ke aperture dan kecepatan rana dalam mode manual. Start-up cepat untuk kelas, dan begitu juga fokus otomatis di sebagian besar keadaan. Histogram hidup terbukti menjadi aset yang nyata, dan, besar tinggi resolusi layar OLED adalah sukacita yang akan digunakan untuk framing dan meninjau gambar yang sama. kritik utama kami khawatir tidak adanya tombol ISO dan fakta bahwa kamera akan menarik kembali lensa terlalu cepat setelah memasuki modus pemutaran. Singkatnya, kamera mendapat hal yang paling tepat di departemen penanganan, dan telah meninggalkan kita dengan kesan keseluruhan yang menguntungkan.
