The Sony Cyber-shot RX100 is a 20MP point and shoot camera. But this isn’t just any point and shoot camera. The RX100 sets itself apart from every other compact camera out there thanks to a much larger image sensor, which measures the same size as th...
Given the sensor size the the solid performance of the RX100, I can’t see a better point and shoot camera on the market right now. The RX100 is fast and produces extremely solid images for a camera that easily fits in your pocket.If you can stomach th...

Sony RX100 review The Sony Cyber-shot RX100 is a pocket-sized compact with a large 20.2 Megapixel sensor, a 3.6x Carl Zeiss optical zoom, and a 3 inch LCD screen with 1.2 million pixel resolution. It has a bright f1.8 maximum aperture (when zoomed-out...
Big sensor, pocketable compact form factor, Programmable lens control ring, 10fps full-resolution burst shooting, Shallow depth of field, Raft of stacking modes.
Rear control wheel not customisable, Digital zoom can't be disabled in movie mode, No built-in memory and lack of 'No card' warning.
The Sony Cyber-shot RX100 is, without doubt, one of the most exciting compact releases in many years. That it comes at a time when other manufacturers - Canon, Fujifilm and Panasonic among them - are also releasing exciting compact models makes it all...

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 ($649) may look like just another compact camera, but if you were to pry off the lens and take a look inside, you'd see what makes it stand out from the crowd. That big feature is its sensor size -- 1-inch -- which is nea...
Excellent photo quality in a compact package; noise performance blows other compacts out of the water, Fast F1.84.9, 28 100 mm Zeiss lens, Ultrasharp 3inch LCD display, with good outdoor and low light visibility, Full manual controls, including RAW support; focus peaking feature comes in very handy when manually focusing, Intelligent and Superior Auto modes make pointandshoot photography a snap...
On the expensive side, Tends to clip highlights, with occasional (slight) underexposure, Redeye a problem, Needs a grip, badly, Other design annoyances: control ring around lens hard to get ahold of, HDMI port located on bottom of camera, can't access memory card or battery when using a tripod, Bare bones playback mode; can't view stills and movies at the same time, Internal battery charging isn'...
Conclusion While it's not perfect, the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 is the closest thing to having an SLR-in-your-pocket that I've seen yet. While Canon tried the big sensor in a fixed lens camera thing with the PowerShot G1 X, that model is ungainly, to...

An advanced compact proves powerful, in spite of its sizeWhat's hot: F/1.8–4.9 lens; 1-inch CMOS sensor. What's not: Priced like an entry-level DSLR. Who it's for: Sophisticated shooters who want serious controls in a pocket camera.Over the Past few years...
Sony's Cyber-shot RX100 is a worthy entry in the field of high-end compacts. Even though we feel that the camera's performance might have been better served keeping the pixel count down, we ended up with some great images.Moreover, the experience of shoot...

When the Sony RX100 was announced, its one-inch sensor and f/1.8 aperture seemed too good to be true. Near-DSLR power packed into a body the size of a compact point-and-shoot camera? What's the catch?AdvertisementTurns out, this camera is a significant ac...
There is a lot to like about the camera, but without question, the camera's focusing abilities are its best feature. In low light, bright light, near, far, or anywhere in between, images look great. The ability to pick up macro-level detail isn't easy for...
The product is nearly perfect, with flaws so nitpicky and minor that most every user would shrug them off. The biggest hangup, really, is the price. But you can find a few tiny technical shortcomings if you look hard enough, Advertisement, For example, th...
On performance alone, absolutely. This is a camera that 90% of the population can pull out of a pocket on a whim to fire off a few beautiful shots without much trouble. Still, this is not a camera for everyone.Lets say youre thinking of buying a DSLR or...
