Fujifilm XQ2 with Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX1 Overview


Let's compare Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX1 with FujiFilm XQ2. These models are included in the Ultracompact cameras. Sony TX1 was released in 2009, and Fujifilm XQ2 in 2015. XQ2 is newer, which is a plus. Cyber-shot DSC-TX1 6 years older.
The sensor resolution of Cyber-shot DSC-TX1 is greater than that of XQ2. However, the difference of 2 MP is not very significant. The more megapixels the camera has, the more detailed and clear the picture will be. The number of megapixels will also affect the maximum size of the photos, which then can be printed without loss of quality.
At the first camera (Cyber-shot DSC-TX1), the minimum ISO value is lower, which gives more opportunities for shooting in daylight. A larger maximum ISO allows you to take good pictures in the dark. At Fujifilm XQ2, the maximum ISO is greater by 9600. Both cameras have Optical image stabilization. Both cameras feature a 3-inch fixed screen.
Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX1 has 12.0 fps continuous shooting.
