'This is a great step-up camera for anyone who feels shackled by automated settings as well as a great on-the-go camera for anyone accustomed to a DSLR. '
'brilliant camera'
'It has a host of new specifications and features that should make it a superior camera to its predecessor. '
'The grip-less camera feels surprisingly good in the hand, thanks to thoughtful ideas like a small but well placed thumb rest on the rear panel.'
'carry-anywhere all-purpose camera'
'The best part about the Olympus XZ-1 was the fact that its image quality backed its hardware, and the camera proved itself a well-equipped tool that excelled when it came to manual controls.'
