QUOTE(sniper on the roof @ Aug 13 2012, 03:02 PM) You can use AEB for 3 shots... then use various software like photomatix etc to combine. But due to the limited dynamic range and for bigger contrast like the pic above... then can manually shoot more than 3 shots. oo meaning instead of the auto 3 shots thingy, we just manually take say 10 shots each with different contrast then use the software again to combine and adjust ka?

Because xz1 wont go below 1/2 sec, i use manual to shoot 5 exposures at -2ev, -1, 0, +1, +2ev

I'd like to upgrade to a cmos sensor for better low light performance.. Saw my friends rx 100.. Delicious! But this zuiko lens is hard to compare.. That's the main reason I got this camera, brand not withstanding..

Seems like Nikon already announced P7700. Not bad with the F2-F4 28-200mm lens but no more OVF. When will Olympus announce XZ-2?

Lol i think it has a decent zoom & max aperture and the amount of dials is just insane.

from the looks alone, the amount of controls is alot for a PnS. the articulating screen also lends lots of flexibility to the shooting angle.. low light? lens? not sure about the rest of the cam till it is released into the wild.. plus its a nikon.. the abilities of a nikon is legend... see below for its AWESOMENESS!!
