Excellent Compact Camera

Excellent Compact Camera. I have Canon s95 and s110, Fujifilm x20 (all great cameras). Although I really liked my X20, I found it too big to fit in my bag, so I decided to get another compact camera. It was before XQ1 or S120. After playing around at a camera store and testing the XQ1 and the S120, I settled on the XQ1. The XQ1 is almost $100 cheaper than the S120 and also has a larger sensor. It's the same size as the S120, but the build quality is better than the S120. It fits in my pocket and sometimes I hardly feel it when I'm wearing loose jeans. The XQ1 works great in low light. I took it to bars and dinners and took great portrait photos. It's fun to play around with the filter setting. The autofocus speed is faster than the s120. The raw files came out great too. It also shoots decent HD videos. Wi-Fi and the Fuji app work well together. My only gripe with the XQ1 is the settings compared to my X20, which are easily accessed via dials, but "E-Fn" helps with some shortcuts. If you're looking for a very lightweight, portable compact camera with fast autofocus and low light, this is the one for you. Get an extra battery too and you won't regret it.
