Abstract: DateJuly 11, 2013 (1) Read later This compact camera has several unusual features. First, it has an APS sensor as used in DSLRs such as the Nikon D7000. Also, it has a 28mm fixed focal-length lens. And it has the low-pass filter removed from ...

Abstract: Let's take a moment and reminisce about the era of compact point & shoot cameras and the years when the only relevant number was the amount of megapixels and when only some of the enthusiasts cared about the size of the optic zoom. It was definitely a sim...
Great image quality, Small footprint despite large APSC sensor, Great build quality, Builtin flash
Hidden movie mode, AF is sluggish in low light, No viewfinder
