Zeiss ZX1

The Zeiss ZX1 is a full-frame (35mm) fixed-lens digital camera produced by Carl Zeiss AG. It was announced in 2018, released in 2020, and discontinued in 2023.

Features
It is the only camera with Adobe Lightroom Mobile built in and one of very few which used Android as its operating system. The camera was marketed as with the tagline "Shoot. Edit. Share." due to its ability to allow users to create photos, edit them, and share them on social media on the camera itself afforded by those attibutes.

Reception
The ZX1 received reviews with mixed conclusions. There was strong agreement that its lens and sensor produced particularly high-quality images, but that its minimal physical contols and design choices made in priority of its visual design compromised its usability - a particular point of criticism was the camera's viewfinder: its rubber eyecup, in contrast with those of most enthusiast-level cameras, is close to flush with the body of the camera, which resulted in the reviewers' faces coming into uncomfortable contact with the body of the camera during its use, and that the camera's reliance on its touchscreen for control of many features made it especially awkward to make settings adjustments while using that viewfinder.

While the camera’s use of the Android operating system was praised for its versatility and ease of use, it was criticized for its long, 24 second, boot time.
