"It has a sleek futuristic appearance, with a wrap-around back panel and a flat, almost featureless front unlike anything else in Fuji’s extensive camera range. At just 18.6mm thick it is one of the slimmest cameras on the market, while its front dimensions are smaller than a pack of cigarettes. The main reason for its compact size it the non-extending 3x optical zoom lens. Although Fuji was somewhat vague about how this actually works, the most likely explanation is that it’s mounted vertically inside the camera and looks out via a prism, rather like a periscope."The Z1 is available in either matt black or flat metallic silver for about £220. The review seems to conclude that the camera, while very good looking and very fast, does not produce the best quality images. So if you are fashion conscious, perhaps this camera is for you, but read this review to find out more about the problems with image quality.
