I suppose they meant that it is not so easy to blur the background (which seems to be important in portraits) with compact camera. Well, the blur ain't everything and you have a wonderful example here.
 
They've turned out very good indeed.
 
that's the reason I like XZ-1 lens even more than EX-1. compacts are getting serious.
 
Wonderful portraits. I like more the second one.
 
Another example;

if you have (or can point to) some portraits taken with the XZ1, could you post them here?
I am curious to see the XZ1 DOF.

all three: XZ-1 f/2.5 @ 24mm (112mm) - the lens doesn't look sharp wide open at its longest focal length

on the other hand, the Japanese lady was shot at pretty slow 1/25 sec shutter speed. This Hungarian gentleman has a sharper look (again, XZ-1 f/2.5 @ 24mm) :

this is not a masterpiece but a sample shot, there are not that many of these around. in this particular case sharpness is the only thing that matters.
