The $6,000 Zeiss ZX1 compact, fixed lens, camera originally released in 2020 has been discontinued.
, its only two authorized resellers have listed it as no longer available.
The Zeiss ZX1 had an extremely long development cycle, even by camera standards. While it was finally announced as coming to market in the fall of 2020, it had been announced publicly, meaning that Zeiss had been working on it for even longer. The photography industry climate changed quite a bit between 2018 and its eventual launch time, which may have affected its desirability.
The ZX1 provided a somewhat unique value proposition in that it provided a smartphone-like workflow inside of a dedicated camera with a larger sensor and higher-quality optics: 37-megapixel full-frame sensor with an ISO range of 80-51,200 , a fixed 35mm f/2 lens, a 1,920×1,080 pixel EVF, and a 4.3-inch 720p fixed rear LCD touch display.
The camera ran a version of Android that allowed it to natively run Adobe Lightroom. The camera also included 512GB of onboard SSD storage since it didn’t have a card slot. The exclusion of a card slot was a curious decision, but the built-in storage would have very likely been required no matter what in order to store the camera’s operating system and any installed software.
