Very portable and very capable little gem
8

One of Olympux premium compact cameras. Combines XZ-1 form factor and fast lens with very good BSI CMOS sensor. Additionally it has tilting LCD, larger battery and more refined UI. I have XZ-1, XZ-2 and Stylus1s. All three of them are great travel cameras, but XZ-2 is perfect for that role thanks to its size and very good RAW image output. Then it depends if I need low light capability and direct USB charging = XZ-2 or long reach with 28-300/2.8 = Stylus1s.

I can recommend both.
