Field Test: Olympus XZ-1 by ortega

[phuncure]

Hi all,

Just wondering about the video focusing problem i saw on some youtube videos. Even with slow movements the camera was trying hard to find a focus. Do any of u have that problem? Thanks.

Hi all,

I find the OLED display is patchy especially for dark areas/scenes (still photo). But the downloaded photo is ok.
Not sure if my display is faulty. Anyone has this issue?

Thank you.

Yes, very impressive for a P&S camera, not sure is it possible to &/or will it(XZ-1) be able to fit with any/original-Oly adapter...to enable the use of filter/s...?

then it is money and time down the drain, if not then it will benefit everyone, wish me luck this weekend

 

[ortega]

here it is, and it works and fits well

this is with a 52mm ring and a cokin p holder

i will find some time to bring this setup out and take long exposure water shots

 

[ortega]

with camera off and lens retracted

with camera on and lens extended

this screw thread gives you the 52mm thread to attach filters or other accessories

this thread is to screw on to the camera

this is the screw thread on the camera that the lens adapter attaches to

Do you guys have a battery drain problem? If I leave the camera untouched , the battery drains slowly.

I believe that happens with all batteries
