Quote from the review/preview:
“Despite the very compact size of the Fujifilm FinePix Z1, a mere 18.6mm thick, the camera is equipped with a 3x optical zoom and an image sensor from the 5th generation stable of Super CCD HR’s. Besides the fantastic result achieved by the design department the power from the engine isn’t bad either. The Fujifilm Z1 distinguishes itself from its predecessors because of the Real Photo Technology. This newly developed technology links a high quality Fujinon lens to a new blazing fast RP image processor which together combine to a perfect working combination. The first impressions showed by our Japanese colleagues are extremely promising. During our visit to Fujifilm Netherlands, a large format poster was shown, created by using the Real Photo Technology and no suspicions arose of dealing with a small digital compact camera. In short, a promising technique! “
