Fujifilm XQ2 vs Olympus FE-25

Here, we will be evaluating the Fujifilm XQ2 versus Olympus FE-25, both Ultracompact digital cameras by rivals FujiFilm and Olympus. The image resolution of the Fujifilm XQ2 (12MP) and the FE-25 (10MP) is relatively well matched but the Fujifilm XQ2 (2/3") and FE-25 (1/2.3") posses different sensor sizes.

The Fujifilm XQ2 was introduced 6 years later than the FE-25 and that is quite a large difference as far as tech is concerned. Each of the cameras feature the same body design (Ultracompact).

Before diving into a step-by-step comparison, here is a short summation of how the Fujifilm XQ2 scores against the FE-25 in the way of portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Following is a preview of the gallery photos for Fujifilm XQ2 & Olympus FE-25. The whole galleries are provided at Fujifilm XQ2 Gallery & Olympus FE-25 Gallery.

For those who are intending to lug around your camera, you're going to have to take into account its weight and dimensions.

Do not forget, the weight of an ILC will differ based on the lens you have attached at that moment. Below is a front view measurements comparison of the Fujifilm XQ2 compared to the FE-25.

Using size and weight, the portability grade of the Fujifilm XQ2 and FE-25 is 92 and 98 respectively.

In many cases, it can be tough to imagine the gap between sensor measurements simply by checking specifications. The photograph below may provide you a greater sense of the sensor sizes in the Fujifilm XQ2 and FE-25.

To sum up, both of those cameras feature different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The Fujifilm XQ2 using its bigger sensor is going to make shooting shallower depth of field easier and the Fujifilm XQ2 will give more detail using its extra 2MP. Higher resolution will also allow you to crop photographs way more aggressively. The younger Fujifilm XQ2 provides a benefit when it comes to sensor innovation.
