The Awesomeness of The Olympus XZ-2

There are already many reviews about The Olympus XZ-2. It's a very powerful compact camera with a standard zoom lens with a bright maximum aperture of f/1.8-2.8 and metal body. It is a very great choices for traveller as the size is so compact and light while it has a very solid body and bright maximum aperture for shooting in dim light. But many competitors also have the same products which share the same specifications.

I'm not a reviewer who have adequate knowledge or tools to judge products. But i just want to share what I have experienced with. What to be underlined is this camera has a very great resolution and detail compared to its competitors in the same price range. Canon Powershot G12, Panasonic Lumix LX-7, Fujifilm X10, or the Nikon Coolpix P7000. It is only my subjective kind of taste, of course.


The photo above was taken with my Olympus XZ-2 at base ISO and tele end. The amazing thing was I used the 2x digital tele converter and crop it about 30% afterward. See that the detail still looks so convincing and the sharpness is adequate enough.

The weak side of this camera, at my copy, is the autofocus is sometimes difficult too lock focus at tele end indoor.
