The XZ-1 is the flagship compact digital camera from Olympus. It stays compact despite packing in the image quality and manual control of entry level DSLRs, plus a host of other nifty features.
The XZ-1 is a 10-megapixel high-end compact with 4x optical zoom from 28mm to 112mm (35mm equivalent). It records HD movies, has a 610k dots OLED display and features 6 Art Filters that can be applied to movies recorded. The camera comes in black or white and retails at S$748 (incl GST).
Hopefully these photos will provide a better idea of what the camera can and cannot do.
