I just received this tiny camera and put it through some paces. It is a very capable shooter despite it's small sensor. No, you won't get the full quality of an APSC DSLR, or micro 4/3 camera. However if you are like me, and looking for something that fits in your pocket that you can carry all of the time this camera is well worth looking into. I have my DSLR and Micro 4/3 for the "heavy lifting", and this is for the shots I've missed when those weren't with me. The fast f1.8-2.7 lens is what gives this Olympus it's remarkable image quality...even in relatively low light. I was delightfully surprised at the Bokeh produced as well as the sharpness of the images. Image stabilization is excellent. To sum up, it's a 7.8 oz. camera with a 150 lb personality.

everythink about this camera is good except the low light quality: controls are well designed and the full manual controls are excellent low light is its weak point - better than many but for example significantly poorer low light quality than the lumix lx3

The Olympus XZ-10 Digital Camera is a compact point-and-shoot camera that features a 12 megapixel 1/2.3" High-Speed backside-illuminated CMOS sensor and TruePic VI image processor to produce high resolution imagery with exceptional low-light quality and sensitivity. It supports full HD 1080p video recording at 30fps as well as a continuous shooting rate of 5fps for working with moving subjects.
The built-in iZuiko 5x optical zoom lens provides a 35mm-equivalent focal length range of 26-130mm, covering wide-angle to telephoto lengths to suit working in an array of shooting situations. The lens also features an f/1.8-2.7 maximum aperture for greater low-light abilities and more control over depth of field and focus control. Dual IS image stabilization also benefits working in difficult conditions by correcting for the appearance of camera shake to render sharper imagery.
For image composition, playback and menu navigation, a 3.0" 921k-dot touchscreen LCD is integrated into the design to give an intuitive means for controlling and selecting camera functions and settings. Additionally, a hybrid control ring is also built around the lens to give further efficient control over a range of customizable settings, including aperture and shutter speed. For refining the appearance of imagery even further, a wide array of camera effects, filters and modes are available, including Art Filters, Photo Story mode, High-Speed Movie and Backlight HDR, for fine-tuning the look and feel of imagery.
