Olympus FE-25 vs Zeiss ZX1

Below, we will be comparing the Olympus FE-25 versus Zeiss ZX1, former being a Ultracompact while the latter is a Large Sensor Compact by companies Olympus and Zeiss. There exists a substantial gap between the sensor resolutions of the FE-25 (10MP) and ZX1 (37MP) and the FE-25 (1/2.3") and ZX1 (Full frame) possess different sensor measurements.

The FE-25 was announced 10 years prior to the ZX1 and that is quite a big difference as far as technology is concerned. Both cameras come with different body type with the Olympus FE-25 being a Ultracompact camera and the Zeiss ZX1 being a Large Sensor Compact camera.

Before going straight into a full comparison, below is a simple synopsis of how the FE-25 grades versus the ZX1 in the way of portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Here is a preview of the gallery photos for Olympus FE-25 & Zeiss ZX1. The whole galleries are provided at Olympus FE-25 Gallery & Zeiss ZX1 Gallery.

In case you're looking to lug around your camera frequently, you will need to think about its weight and size. The Olympus FE-25 enjoys outside dimensions of 93mm x 62mm x 24mm (3.7" x 2.4" x 0.9") with a weight of n/a grams (0.00 lbs) while the Zeiss ZX1 has specifications of 142mm x 93mm x 46mm (5.6" x 3.7" x 1.8") and a weight of 800 grams (1.76 lbs).

Do not forget, the weight of an ILC will vary dependant on the lens you select at the time. The following is the front view sizing comparison of the FE-25 vs the ZX1.

Using dimensions and weight, the portability grade of the FE-25 and ZX1 is 98 and 67 respectively.

Quite often, it's difficult to imagine the gap between sensor measurements just by reviewing specifications. The visual below should offer you a stronger sense of the sensor sizes in the FE-25 and ZX1.

Plainly, both of the cameras have got different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The FE-25 using its tinier sensor is going to make achieving shallow depth of field more challenging and the Zeiss ZX1 will offer you extra detail with its extra 27MP. Higher resolution will also let you crop photographs much more aggressively. The older FE-25 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
