It's the first oneinch sensor camera slim enough to fit in a top pocket
It's the first oneinch sensor camera slim enough to fit in a top pocket, Responsive and intuitive touchscreen controls, Highly detailed shots possible, even in very low light, Useful compnion app for WiFi control, Well executed variable lens collar dial,
No viewfinder, Few physical controls, relying mainly on the touchscreen, No 4K video support, The zoom lens is only 3x magnification, The monitor is fixed with no articulation
This slim and stylish compact is capable of remarkable detail and clarity, even in very low light, thanks largely to it's 20.2MP one-inch sensor. It's a pity the monitor is not articulated, but the touchscreen menu is convenient, giving fast access to som...
I'd have loved to see better battery life, nippier performance and slightly more to grip onto on the front of the camera. However, the concept is so strong that these drawbacks pale into insignificance. This is a camera that no one could complain is too h...

Slim design and good looks, capable autofocus system, good image quality to ISO 1600, dabbling with the future in touchscreen-based controls

Slim, pocketable design, Good image quality from 1in sensor, Well-implemented touchscreen
Unambitious lens, Limited physical controls, Unreliable autofocus in low light
