According to the brief list of features WX1 is very similar to the “average” W380: the same high-end optics G-series with a focal range of 24-120 mm and aperture of f/2,4 at a wide angle, the same display diagonal of 2.7 inches. However, the WX1 packs it all into a much more compact 90×52×20 mm body, with a proprietary Exmor R CMOS sensor instead of the usual CCD sensor.

Hence the logical technical advantages: better shooting quality at high sensitivities, increased speed 10 frames per second .
True, unlike newer models with Exmor R sensor, DSC-WX1 still can not record Full HD video: Clip resolution, as in simple cameras Sony, is limited to a value of 1280 × 720 pixels.
But the high capacity battery of this camera is enough for 350 frames. Software technology is on full display: there’s smart automation, face detection, self-timer by smile, and automatic quick panoramas in the WX1.
