This is true if you line up the iPhone against every camera on the market. The ZX1 at least moves the camera UI from 2007 where most camera companies are stuck to 2017. The workflow for editing photos on a computer are insanely antiquated today. A lot of people here are clearly comfortable with that workflow but bad for business overall for the photography industry.
Zeiss’s biggest mistake was their camera partner - clearly someone new to the industry with little experience and no tech. The ui is forward thinking but the camera hardware is antiquated. Hard to justify the price for that experience.
Good point. Who actually built the ZX1 and wrote the firmware? Was it one partner or more than one partner, or did Zeiss do a some of this in-house other than the initial design( not very likely IMO). But again all very interesting to know I think.
Usual suspects?
Sony sensor ( maybe)?
European Sensor from CMOSIS and/or STMicroelectronics ?

Who might be the Made in China partners?
