The [Fujifilm](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fujifilm-xt5) XQ2 is an all-new [high-quality compact camera](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/panasonic-zs99) that aims to give picture-snappers the ability to take high quality images without having to lug a heavy DSLR around.

This camera brings together a 25-100-mm equivalent lens and an X-Trans CMOS 11 sensor. One of its highlight is its speedy Autofocus ability.

The camera offers a healthy [ISO](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/safet-range) range of 100 to 12800 which helps ensure high quality images under any lighting conditions. The camera also offers a good maximum burst speed of 12 frames per second, and is capable of recording Full HD 1080p video footage at 60/30 frames per second.

The Fujifilm XQ2 has a 3-inch monitor with 920,000 dots. It is equipped with built-in WiFi which makes it extremely easy to share content online and on social media.
