X70. Ultimate Compact Camera | Ivan Joshua Loh

As a commercial photographer; street photography is not my element. With the arrival of the smallest and lightest X-series camera; I decided to take this small little wonder to the street. Not just just street but also bring it to the other world of landscape; architecture, environmental portraits, food etc….. Lets call the X70 Ultimate Compact Camera. (UCC). Here is what I gonna do; I gonna squeeze as much juice as I could from this little camera and see if this camera has what it takes to be the Ultimate Compact Camera. All pictures taken at set at 28mm. No digital zoom is used. I am not a real fan of digital zoom. Street Photography is probably why many would lust after this camera. Its fits perfectly into your pocket; almost. At 28mm wide; its a pretty comfortable focal length to shoot. But one needs to fill the frame. The extra advantage would be the tilt screen and touch screen. I use this pretty often, especially in corners, low or high angles. Of course the classic layout of aperture ring, shutter and compensation dial is easily within reach for that lighting fast adjustment………
