Abstract: Fujifilm announced its point-and-shoot XQ1 and its mid-tier X-E2 earlier this month as two products that help expand its popular X Series. This past week, Fujifilm attended PhotoPlus in New York City, and lucky for us, they brought bot the XQ1 and X-E...
Abstract: As well as announcing the X-E2, Fujifilm has also launched the XQ1, a premium compact camera that shares the same 2/3in X-Trans CMOS II sensor and EXR Processor II as the X20. Featuring an ISO range from 100 to 12,800, the sensor does away with the nee...

Below average auto whitebalance, Strong edgesoftness, Some optical distortion, LCD not ExposurePriority and incorrect LiveHistogram, Does not wait for autofocus to lock, 2s Filming delay, Very short batterylife, Poor tripod mount placement

Small size, physical lens ring, solid build quality, decent image quality, effective image stabilisation, competitive aperture range
