QUOTE(sniper on the roof @ Jun 28 2015, 06:12 PM) You strobist ma... different story la  For the average joes who doesn't use flashes or need beefier raw files, there's not too much difference between a 1/2.3" sensor phone and a 1/1.7" sensor camera especially if he or she have to fork out $$$ for the camera. I hardly even bring my RX100 out these days unless its a night out and I don't want to carry a bag for my fuji. Miss those days when every picture coming out from XZ-1 gives us surprise. Nowadays people hardly care about image quality. The blue with graduation look and the tonal rendition of the XZ-1 is something smartphone can't do. |

The blue Then again, its never all about image quality. My wife takes so many photos of the kids and food with her phone that she's gotten a lot better in composition. Better than what I could come out with.... so that's never a bad thing. |

Anywhere that I can send this baby to for repairs? The Zoom motor is skipping and Oly says out of production model and CANNOT service.
