Fujifilm XQ1 vs Olympus 5010

Its time to examine more closely at the Fujifilm XQ1 vs Olympus 5010, both Ultracompact digital cameras by brands FujiFilm and Olympus. The image resolution of the Fujifilm XQ1 (12MP) and the 5010 (14MP) is very well matched but the Fujifilm XQ1 (2/3") and 5010 (1/2.3") use different sensor dimensions.

The Fujifilm XQ1 was brought out 3 years later than the 5010 and that is quite a large difference as far as technology is concerned. The two cameras come with the identical body type (Ultracompact).

Before we go straight into a more detailed comparison, below is a quick synopsis of how the Fujifilm XQ1 matches up versus the 5010 in the way of portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Following is a sample of the gallery pics for Fujifilm XQ1 & Olympus Stylus 5010. The entire galleries are provided at Fujifilm XQ1 Gallery & Olympus 5010 Gallery.

If you're intending to lug around your camera often, you will want to take into account its weight and proportions.

Remember, the weight of an ILC will vary based on the lens you use at that moment. The following is the front view sizing comparison of the Fujifilm XQ1 against the 5010.

Taking into consideration dimensions and weight, the portability grade of the Fujifilm XQ1 and 5010 is 92 and 96 respectively.

Normally, it is very hard to visualize the difference between sensor measurements merely by looking at technical specs. The photograph underneath may give you a better sense of the sensor measurements in the Fujifilm XQ1 and 5010.

As you can tell, both of those cameras have got different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The Fujifilm XQ1 due to its larger sensor is going to make shooting shallow depth of field less difficult and the Olympus 5010 will give greater detail having its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will enable you to crop images much more aggressively. The more modern Fujifilm XQ1 should have a benefit when it comes to sensor innovation.
