Stuck at home now babysitting my 2 month old daughter...... who's sleeping now and I was curious how the full auto mode of my camera's work.
So here's the Full AUTO point and shoot ......shootout between the Canon 550D with 18-55mm kit lens vs Canon S90 vs Olympus XZ-1. Everything including focal point is decided by the camera. Shot jpeg and resized to 1024. The 550D decided to pop the flash but I closed it to keep things equal and I accidently kept the S90 at the wrong image ratio 550D » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « XZ1 » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « S90 » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « |

bro sniper..IQ wise i cant differentiate much la but 550d better sharpness, xz-1 comes close second and s90 the last..and S90 color a bit warmer than 550d and xz-1, xz-1 shot seems a bit brighter from others..(from my notebook monitor point of view)..please correct me..thanks for snapping this comparison shot.

there are 2 pouch which i find to fit xz-1 nicely,one is from kata
http://www.kata-bags.com/productFRM2HS.asp...0&Version=Photo the df series from kata is of very high quality and the size feels like it was designed to fit xz-1 in mind,and its uses the erm...how to say..the bulu bulu lekat type to close the pouch,has no zip to potentially scratch your camera(which i always been paranoia of),but its a bit expensive on most places,shasinki sells it at quite reasonable price though at 60+ another one i'm which i'm using is one from vantage(sort of ayam brand),its very cheap,i got it for 40(in a rush,din survey around),the quality is inferior to kata but the fabric uses for its construction is hard type and padding is quite thick,initial use xz-1 would have to squeeze through the opening a bit but will loosen up later. it too uses the bulu-bulu lekat thing for closing the pouch,which i always prefer,as the kata it too has an extra compartment for battery.i'll try to post some picture of this pouch later when my streamyx restored |
