Zeiss has clarified its position in the photography market and soundly denied allegations that it is leaving the photography industry. That said, don't expect a follow-up to its Android-powered ZX1 camera.
According to a new report, Zeiss appears poised to fully exit the photography industry this year and will cease production of cameras and lenses.
The Zeiss ZX1 promised "intuitive" photography that mixed a standalone camera with smartphone software. But now that it's marked as discontinued, is this finally the end of the Android camera?
The $6,000 Zeiss ZX1 compact, fixed lens, camera originally released in 2020 has been discontinued. While Zeiss still has web pages for it online, its only two authorized resellers have listed it as no longer available.
The Zeiss ZX1 Android-powered camera has received a new firmware update that brings a new version of Lightroom, face-detection autofocus, and more.
Announced in 2018, we're finally starting to get a look at the $6,000 Zeiss ZX1. The camera is designed to be a photo capture, edit, and share device, and as such runs Lightroom Mobile right on the rear LCD.
Announced nearly two years ago, Zeiss' compact Android-powered fixed-lens camera finally has a price: $6,000. While this is likely more than most thought Zeiss would ask for the camera, Zeiss seems to be banking on the value of an all-in-one experience.
Zeiss made waves back in September when it announced its new ZX1 full-frame camera, which has Adobe Lightroom built into the camera itself. The company just released this 2-minute video that's the first hands-on look at the upcoming camera.
Zeiss has announced the ZX1, a new full-frame compact camera with a fixed 35mm f/2 lens. It's the first-ever full-frame camera by Zeiss.
