LCD resolution of the Zeiss ZX1

The rear LCD screen of the Zeiss ZX1 has a resolution of 2,765,000 dots and measures 4.3 inches across its diagonal. A high-resolution display offers a clearer and crisper user experience than a lower pixel screen, notably during live view framing and image review. While the physical size of the LCD is naturally limited by the space that is available on the back of the camera, the resolution of the rear screen has continued to increase over time, with new camera models often featuring nicer rear panels as one of the key arguments for a camera upgrade.

In terms of screen handling characteristics, the LCD of the Zeiss ZX1 is touch sensitive and is fixed to the body.

As can be seen from the rear-side image, the 4.3-inch LCD occupies a large part of the backside of the camera. For comparison, the diagonal on a standard credit card measures 4 inches.
