    Olympus Olympus Stylus 1

    Thanks for the reply and comparison, that is basically what I figured. I think I'll keep the XZ-2 for close shots, indoors, low light and wait and see what the upcoming 2/3-1" new cameras that are expected to come out by the end of this year. I just need something that has more reach than 112mm...

    Olympus Olympus Stylus 1

    I just upgraded from a Canon G12 to a XZ-2 and I'm extremely happy with it and much better IQ I am getting from it. Has anyone owned the XZ-2 and now the Stylus 1 (1)? If you have, can you tell me if the 1 has the exact same IQ as the ZX-2 or better or worse? I would like to have the longer...

    Olympus Olympus Stylus 1 and Flowers

    @swandy... I just upgraded from a Canon G12 to a XZ-2 and I'm extremely happy with it and much better IQ I am getting from it. Since you owned the XZ-2 and now the Stylus 1, (1) can you tell me if the 1 has the exact same IQ as the ZX-2 or better or worse? I would like to have the longer reach...

    Canon G1X Mark II - reviews

    Now that more reviews are out, the G1XmkII seems to have way too many issues with it. I got an Olympus XZ-2 and saved $500 and probably a lot of aggravation, and the images I'm taking look just as good as what I've seen from the G1XmkII. Right now, I think the XZ-2 is the best bang for the buck...

    Camera testing going on here; comments and suggestions need

    Thanks for all the comparison shots, but now that the G1XmkII is out, there seems to be way too many issues with it. I got an Olympus XZ-2 and saved $500 and probably a lot of aggravation and the images I'm taking look just as good as what I've seen from the G1XmkII. Right now, I think the XZ-2...

    Olympus Why no love for the XZ-2, it is a great camera!

    I just tried that link, but it did not work. I did a search for the xz-2 and it looks like they want $599 for it? Search results for: 'XZ-2' | Olympus Cameras, Audio & Binoculars snapshotrepublic.com

    Sony New to the Compact Camera thing

    Have you taken a look at the Olympus XZ-2 yet? The IQ and zoom range is in between the RX100 and TZ60, but the handling is far exceeds them. It was released at $600 two years ago and can now be had for less than $300. I traded in my trusty old G12 for one 2 months ago, and I'm finding it to be a...

    News Two New Compacts From Olympus: Serious Enough?

    Let's hope Fuji's rumored X30 comes with a new and improved 2/3" sensor and a fast 24-200 mm high quality lens. Right now, the rumored Nikon P8000 is the only camera with the specs I am looking for. I hope Nikon perfects it before they release it and puts a bit of the RX100mk3 and G1Xmk2 in it...

    News Two New Compacts From Olympus: Serious Enough?

    Every time I see a camera that has this: 16 Megapixel – BSI CMOS 1/2.3”, I immediately dismiss it. They can give it 9-axis IBIS, Full HD 120p, 1200x zoom, etc... There is just NO WAY a sensor that size crammed with that many MP's is going to have good enough (IMO) IQ. I don't know of one now...

    Olympus Why no love for the XZ-2, it is a great camera!

    How much are you willing to spend, what do you think it is worth? I picked one up at B&H for $299 and got about $50 of free accessories. I see it is back up to $599 right now, that's crazy! It's only $291.89 & FREE Shipping on Amazon right now.

    Canon I just sent the G1X MkII back -- here's why

    Jock, just for the heck of it, if you could take 2 more pictures of the same location with the G12 and G1X2 to compare them, that would be great, thanks!

    Olympus Why no love for the XZ-2, it is a great camera!

    Thanks Biro for the link, I think I may have something to do with that thread being locked. I was trying to explain something to "dougjgreen", but for some reason, he was just not able to understand and got hostile. That is why I started this thread since I find very little written about such a...

    Olympus Why no love for the XZ-2, it is a great camera!

    I just upgraded my Canon G12 after 4yrs to the XZ-2 and ‘I’ think it is one of the (if not) the best P&S’s ever made! I got it for $299 two weeks ago with 4 free accessories at which I felt was a very fare price. The G12 was a very nice camera, but I felt after MUCH research, the IQ, handling...

    Canon Canon G1 X Mark II Announced and Looks Amazing

    Nippa, you are correct, the original link I posted was moved. I think Canon saw it and paid them to remove it, but they only moved it. キヤノン Canon PowerShotG1X MarkIIの徹底レビュー フラグシップ・高級コンパクト /monoxデジカメ比較レビュー That is the new location. Go about 80% of the way down the page. If anyone on this...

    Olympus so whats wrong with the oly xz-2?

    Ok, no more arguing, just the facts. You are correct; there is a Micro 4/3 section on the site. The issues is that you are currently posting in a forum called: Fixed-Lens Cameras - Sensor Size < 1" - Olympus (Wrong Forum) 1st issue: you were comparing XZ-2 with E-PL5 and 4 separate lenses...

    Olympus so whats wrong with the oly xz-2?

    Doug... I I believe the E-PL5 + 12-35mm + 35-100mm f2.8 lenses costs $3,000 (or more) right? The XZ-2 with it's much faster 14-112mm lens cost $300 (or less) and it's much smaller/lighter with that focal range, right? How can you compare (or try to) a fixed lens camera and a system camera with...

    Canon Canon G1 X Mark II Announced and Looks Amazing

    I dismissed it because the lens is crap! After reading this review and many other, I found the lens is very soft/blurry at F2.0, wide open. http://www.monox.jp/digitalcamera-sp...g1xmk2-04.html About half way down the page, you can see proof that the lens can't even resolve the 2 year old...

    Fuji Fuji X20 at $599 or X10 at $379?

    Tony... I just ordered a XZ-2 yesterday as an upgrade of my Canon G12. I also looked at the x20, can you tell me why you traded your x20 for the ZX-2 and why? If you like it better, can you tell me why and if it has better IQ and sharper images? Thanks!

    Olympus so whats wrong with the oly xz-2?

    I agree, after reading every professional review on the XZ-2 and using the Studio shot comparison (from DPR) and comparing it to my G12, I bought one yesterday from Adorama. They had one XZ-2 left with 16GB mem, cleaning kit and bag package for only $299, I could not pass it up. If you compare...
