Although it might seem fairly restrictive, the reasonably wide-angle fixed lens means you can still capture landscape shots.

Shooting with the new Classic Chrome film simulation gives deeper tones and muted colours, which work well for certain subjects.

Even at incredibly high ISOs, if you're sharing the image at a reasonably small size, it's more than usable. This image was shot at ISO 25600.

If you want to shoot wide open at f/2.0 and still use a fairly slow shutter speed, you can activate the camera's inbuilt ND filter to make sure you don't overexpose the image.

You can activate the electronic shutter to shoot at faster speeds than the mechanical shutter allows. This image was shot at f/2.0 and 1/20000 of a second.
