Art of Photography reviewed Xperia 1 and gave a lot of praise. https://youtu.be/TrZAb4dUfHQ

Pixel Peepers is back with a low light camera show down, claiming dxo rating is BS. https://youtu.be/9ZJYbhriaCc

And the short film shot on Xperia, Taste is out https://youtu.be/2CLqN1vyOrY

I know they probably used a hundred accessories and post produced it into oblivion but damn, it looks fantastic. There's also a blue phone towards the end I couldn't identify. ( guess it is the purple X1)

You're welcome xpr. I thought we should support these. And I think it's important that photography channels are reviewing the phone. There is at least 2 people who said they got to know about X1 from art of photography's video.

It's good to see sony finally taking marketing seriously.

Is there anyone else but me who has issues with the auto/manual focusing on their Xperia 1?
I can hold my hand infront of the camera and about 95% of the time the camera doesn´t adjust focus to it. It also has focus hunting issues in macro photography and landscapes are out of the question. When trying to shoot landscapes i get out of focus images about 98% of the time and adjusting the focus manually doesn´t help either because sliding the slider up to infinity in manual focus mode gives me out of focus images if like the camera looses focus adjustment to that distance.
The auto focus is a frustating issue for me and has been since the phone was brand new, i even exchanged it for another one the day after because of the issues and that one has the same problems! For a premium phone the camera is a low blow given it´s hardware!

@Tjobbs - sounds like either you have a defective camera or your expectations for performance are beyond what is reality. not sure what your photography background and experience is, but no camera is going to focus on your hand if its too close to the camera lens, unless that lens is a macro lens. regarding landscapes, you aren't going to get perfect detail on somethign that is too far away to get an accurate focus on.. hence the infinity. which basically means the focus is set to the maximum possible and you just have to use it to its potential.

sounds like you are having issues with macro shots and landscape shots. you have not mentioned issues with things within near distances, for example, a portrait shot of someone or some thing. if you're unable to get a clear focus in normal ranges then it sounds like you have a defective camera. if you can, then maybe you just need to alter your expectations or educate yourself on the limitations of the X1's camera.

note - i am not trying to make assumptions or insult you. just trying to help.

there is a minumum distance the cam requires to focus.
For the main camera, it maybe something like 4 or 5 cm at least.
