XS-1 vs FZ200 informal test...

They had such a well balanced product - FZ150, so why did they feel the urge to downgrade it?

• The Sensor: it is noisier in the shadows, which is visible in the RAW. That implies less DR headroom in RAW PP.
• JPEG Image processing: higher levels of noise means more NR. That translates to color bleeding the in shadows.
• Lens: Yes, there is that f2.8 thing. But was achieved at the expense of the some resolution loss - especially at longer FLs - compared to FZ-150, that even on comparable apertures.
