The XZ-2 iHS is a point and shoot camera. Its main benefit is a very small size: the photographer can even put it in the pocket. The XZ-2 iHS is equipped with different automatic modes but you won't capture pictures of the same perfect quality in comparison to DSLR cameras.

The XZ-2 iHS has a 1/1.7' (7.44 x 5.58 mm) sensor which means that the camera will make pictures with not so high quality as cameras with bigger sensors but instead it is more portable. But if you want to shoot pictures of the best quality check Nikon D810A.
The XZ-2 iHS has max shutter speed of 1/2000 sec. It is an average shutter speed which will be enough for making action pictures of a satisfactory quality. The XZ-2 iHS has tilting LCD that will let you to make high quality selfies. The XZ-2 iHS shoots high quality videos in Full HD resolution.
The lens is fixed and you can't switch it. The lens has 4x optical zoom.
The XZ-2 iHS battery life will be enough to capture approximately 340 pictures.
