i'm a professional photographer and shoot with a mark iii and all L glass. i preface my review with that so that's it known that this is not a cute little camera i got to shoot in auto. i shoot fully manual and this thing does not disappoint. i'm hard pressed to differentiate a portrait from this vs my mark iii. the sharpness, clarity, contrast and colors are incredible for such a small toy! i got it so i don't have to take my big camera and all my glass to the beach/zoo etc, and so that my husband can use it. he shoots in auto and the auto is better than any point and shoot i've seen. the 1.8 lens is killer, at 1.8 it's razor sharp. highly recommend this little toy. now that i have it, i couldn't live with out it.

I want a camera that takes great photos but prefer not to carry around a dSLR, so I started to buy into the hype surrounding this Sony RX100. I have taken 50 or so shots and, in all fairness, the camera is fast and takes good photos. However, I did not find the pictures to be as "clear as a bell" as those previously taken with a Canon S110, which is approximately half the price of this Sony. Unfortunately, the S series Canons have had some lens error issues, but other people have also commented about their very good point-and-shoots taking better photos than the RX100.Since this purchase, I have read several comments from photo experts and others stating that the images from this Sony RX100 tend to be soft, and sharpening needs to be done either in the camera or with photoshop, etc. So what is the point of paying double to fiddle around to (maybe) get photos as good as those from another camera without the big price tag? I don't know if many people who are blown away by the RX100 are comparing it to run-of-the-mill point-and-shoot cameras or what. I may continue to try different settings before returning it and getting one of the Canons or something else. Suggestions that are not rude or condescending are welcome. I had high hopes and would be glad to keep this camera if the image quality actually matched the price.UPDATE: Several months later, I tried a Canon S120 but was unable to get photos even as good those from a Canon S110. The Sony RX100 is $548 now (January 2014) here and elsewhere, so I threw in the towel and got one which hopefully will work out this time. I plan to do a bit of in-camera sharpening and get to know the camera better, perhaps with the help of Gary Friedman's online book. I added a star to the rating, based on what I have seen so far with the camera I now have.

I've had this camera for a few weeks now and it has become my go-to camera, even though I have three DSLRs, four video cameras, and a bunch of lenses. Why? The answer is simple. It takes great photos and video, has every kind of manual setting you can think of, in both photo and video mode (except maybe audio level in video), a fast 1.8 carl zeiss lens (and not just any zeiss lens, it's a sonnar with a t* coating), and is pocketable. For most pics and video the quality might be marginally better but not really noticeable, so why lug around my large DSLR and lens combo? After reading other reviews here are some quick points about this camera:PRICE - look, a Carl Zeiss vario-sonnar t* with a maximum aperture of 1.8 would cost more than the entire price of this camera, so no it is not over-priced.DOCUMENTATION - yes, it should come with a manual or CD but if you're in the market for a camera like this you must know something about photography so using it for a couple of days should make you familiar with all the featuresRAW - support is coming, so no worries hereCANON EOS-M - oh wait, it's coming soon so should I wait? Probably not. The reason: It will be thicker with the pancake lens on it, so not great in the pocket. The Canon pancake lens is not close to the quality of the Zeiss Sonnar t* but the sensor (APS-C) is a lot larger on the canon and will make up for the diminished quality. Can't zoom with the pancake. If you want to zoom you have to buy an adapter to use other Canon lenses or buy the one they made for this camera which is about $300, oh btw that makes the cost of the camera over $1,000 and no way can you then put in your pocket, might as well use your DSLR right?One final thing. No one is really talking about the snapshot mode during video, whereby you press the shutter while recording video and it records a photo. Well, when I purchased the camera, Sony promo said that you can take 17mp stills during video. Yes, you can but at much lower quality. I should have realized that basically the camera is just doing a capture (freezing a moment of the video). So I was a little disappointed with this feature, however in average light the stills are pretty good, unless you super magnify them. They look great when printed 4x6 and very good on a big screen TV. It's a neat feature if you're having a family event and want both stills and video and have just one person to do it. Most camcorders and some cameras (including most Sony compacts) have this feature but the quality of the stills is usually not good so it's almost a useless feature on those other cameras.Bottom line - Great Quality Photos and Videos, Full Manual and Auto Controls, Super Versatility, a feature set a pro would be proud of but a novice could use.

I cannot advocate this camera enough!Great compact size. Solid beautiful construction, nice metallic feel. But please use the wrist strap, i get scared to drop this 700$ camera! Extremely portable and can fit in pockets. I used previous canon powershots (which were big and bulky)Photo Quality: Amazing, AMazing, AMAZING photos. My previous canon powershots had barrel distortion, none can be seen on these photos. The color and shadow detail is spot on and very sharp images. I use this for both recreation and in the operating room (for educational purposes). The ability of this camera to correctly and faithfully reproduce colors under harsh lighting conditions in the OR is amazing. Every time i see images on the screen, I am almost always amazed at the photo image quality on my computer. I never get let down. Low lighting starts to suffer, but i find using the flash still provides a very natural feel to photos and colors.Zoom: i typically don't zoom on photos, because i can generally crop. But this morning i used some zoom and was extremely happy with the results. It does have an optical zoom to help prevent serious image degredationEffects: At first i thought this was an odd addition for such an afficionado camera. But i came to find the "high contrast" and "rich" b/w options to be a lot of fun. Sony really did a wonderful job with their in camera processing to create some great photo renderings. These B/W options also look great once the ISO increases or ambient lighting decreases, it gives the camera a "FILM" grain and can have dramatic effects.Panoramic: i used this recently in park city UT on the slopes. Great and simple panaromas. Beautiful stitching and not a whole lot of distortion. One of the simple benefits of having a new camera system.I hope u guys do the right thing and get this camera. Way better than the canon's i've used before. I used to be a big canon fan boy (5d mark II and Powershots). I think sony gets a bad name b/c when they first started their product was only "so/so".

A friend who had owned this camera for a few weeks showed me the great variety of options this new Sony offers and since I was looking for a new, small camera for an upcoming motorcycle vacation it seemed like everything I wanted. I went on amazon after comparing prices and purchased it. I had it by the time of our trip and for the first week and 200+ pics I was very happy. But then, the camera "froze" with the lens out. We tried the suggested restart to fix exactly this problem but nothing worked and the literature said to mail it back to a SONY Repair Center. There we were, half way thru a scenic wonderland vacation with a new camera that stopped taking pics. The best part of this review is about Amazon, not SONY. When I called Amazon they didn't skip a beat after hearing my story. They said how sorry they were and that they would send me a new camera and email me the prepaid postage label to return the broken one. I was so impressed that I can not imagine ever receiving better, faster service. So far, so good with the new camera. Beautiful pics and fun "painting" and black and white options. My friend said he read the freeze up of the lens has been an issue with this model, so I will keep my fingers crossed and post again if it repeats the problem.

Please understand they do not really compete with one another although they could one uses a aps c sensor while one uses a 1" sensor.There is no argument at ~$1000 the coolpix A does in fact have a larger image sensor than the ~$600 rx100. Using the Coolpix A what really bugs me is the lack of actual zoom on this thing and the slow autofocus on this thing as well. Lastly there is an annoying thing where there is a little switch on the side to switch to between: macro, auto focus and manual focus. The lack of image stabilization is another bad thing the RX100 lens does have image stabilization.RX100 advantages does have faster auto focus, in superior auto you do not need to physically hit a switch to go in between macro and auto focus. (it does what it suppose to do auto detect that its a macro picture or other scene options) The Macro on the RX100 is also significantly better as well, I prefer the macro on the RX100 as I can get a closer shot to the object before the focus does not work anymore.But do realize in real world situations a faster auto focus, image stabilization will generally snap you a better picture than a camera with slower auto focus especially when you are using auto mode on these two cameras. Where the RX100 shines is the faster auto focus being able to snap multiple pictures at once and choosing the best picture of the bunch it snaps. To me if you want an all around camera the RX100 would be the definite choice but if you are maybe just taking pictures of landscapes or non moving pictures on a tripod the Coolpix A might be a better choice.If you google rx100 vs coolpix a you'll find spec comparisons and reasons why you might wind up falling in love the RX100 over the coolpix A. I also recommend trying them both in person I bought the rx100 first and then bought the coolpix A seeing if I would replace the RX100 but winded up returning the coolpix A.

I like taking photos of my toddler but all I know is using auto mode of cameras. My review is therefore, based on my experience with this new camera compared to Canon G12.Cons:- The pop-up flash & battery lid look like they can be broken easily. I don't know how I can keep them from being broken in 1-2 years!!- It's annoying to me that videos & photos are from separate replay menu.- Its zoom is a little less than the Canon G12- Every time I started to video my toddler after taking some photos, the screen says that it's recording my photos to the camera, so the videoing has to be delayed & I lost some seconds that I wanted to video my toddler! Even I don't know anything about cameras, it is slower than the Canon G12 at this point.- I feel the Canon G12 can take moving photos of my toddlers better than Sony RX100 (I noticed this when taking her photos playing with the balloons & bubbles outside)- I don't like using iMovies & Iphotos to download videos & photos from the camera to my laptops. I feel strongly that it took more time than when I downloaded photos & videos from Canon G12. & it's much easier to edit photos/videos by using Canon software.The software "WirelessAutoImport" suggested by Sony website for Mac can't be installed to my MacBook nor MacAir even mine meet the requirements of the software. I have no idea why. I posted this question in the forum but no answer yet.- I think with this price, Sony should provide a DVD to customers.- I don't like the way the camera is charged now & don't like the spend more money on the charger that will be in the market this Sept.- Battery of this camera is exhausted much faster than the Canon G12's.- The leather-like case for this camera is really expensive compared to genuine leather case for the expensive Fuji camera. But I bought it because it makes this camera easier to be carried around & it protects the camera much better than others.Pros:- Sony RX100 is very small compared to Canon G12 so I can easily carry it everywhere while chasing my toddler & take her photos or put it in my purse without hurting my skinny shoulder bone! :)- Its videos & photos are VERY nice! I'm very pleased (I only use auto mode as said).These 2 pros made me decide to keep the camera & give it 4 stars because all I care about is the beautiful photos & videos of my daughter :)I hope this review is rather helpful for people who only know use auto mode like me. I would appreciate if people who know more about cameras can teach me to benefit more from this camera! Big thanks in advance for your time!!UPDATE:- Just read advices of commenters. I appreciate your help & time. Will take time to learn more how to better use this camera. Thanks again!!

I'm sure others have gone into all the specs, etc, so I won't bother. I bought mine last August, after reading lots of reviews, and took it on a trip to Europe soon after. I've had great luck with it, getting street shots really quickly. For a long time, I just stuck with the auto settings and got great shots. It does work very well in low light.It is true that it'd be nice if they shipped a full manual with it. However, the on board hints are good, and you can do well with it without knowing all that much about how the camera works. A while ago, I decided that it was time for me to really learn all about my camera, so I bought a book, http://www.amazon.com/Complete-Guide-Sonys-Cyber-Shot-RX-100/dp/1300294760/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1370145847&sr=1-1&keywords=Gary+L+Friedman. I got samples of ehis and another book from the Apple iBook store and chose Friedman's book. I've been happy with it, and am learning more about my camera. I've found it helpful to have the book in ebook form, as I could dowload it to my iPhone and have it handy to refer to.As others have commented, the pop up flash is a bit flimsy seeming. I always shoot without flash, so it has not been an issue for me. One thing that has been annoying for me is the placement of the recod button, as I tend to hit the button by accident, and find myself recording when I don't want to. However, this is a pretty minor complaint.I purchased the Blachttp://www.amazon.com/BlackRapid-RPB-1BB-Snapr-20-Black/dp/B004WDIV8E/ref=sr_1_27?ie=UTF8&qid=1370146431&sr=8-27&keywords=black+rapidkRapid Snapr 20 case for the camera, and have found it a good choice.

I've had the camera for 8 months and can say that like many Sony cameras, the menus are laborious and take a while to manage. After using Canon G's for a long time, this was a tough let down. Having knobs and such ready to change quickly is much more manageable. However, there are ways around those troubles that Sony has thankfully used - like allowing for focus ring customization and such. But, again, you have to face that steep learning curve.All of these things you can forgive - because if you had researched the camera etc, you would know. But the use of AVCHD video files has been, for me, the biggest drag. They're extremely difficult to manage compared with .mov files and here Sony again makes it more difficult with their file writing system.I've used many format techniques, converters and so forth in an effort to manage these files but the truth is they're a pain. If you plan on shooting video with your point-and-shoot with any regularity, I'd seriously consider using a Canon. AVCHD takes so many loops to jump through to get to a useable and shareable file it's seriously detrimental to the whole idea of shooting video to share. Is it lovely? Yeah, it's okay. But, there's easier ways to get better footage. So, 1/2 Star off for the pain in the butt menus and NO Battery Charger! and 1.5 Stars off for using AVCHD. And making even than more difficult that it needs to be

I want to like this camera, but the one I got has a serious flaw: the battery drains when sitting still. I noticed after a week that every time I tried to use it the battery was dead. After observing it for awhile, I noticed that it would turn itself on without being touched or moved in any way. First the viewer turned in, then the lenses popped out and the whole thing fired up. I tried to figure it out but finally decided it was just broken. Unfortunately I waited one day too long to return it to Amazon, so had to send it back to Sony. That was three weeks ago. If I get it back soon and it works alright I'll figure I just got a dud and will upgrade this review. If it still has a problem I'll downgrade it to one star. But from what I read from other reviewers my problem is not unique.Update: after 3 weeks, I got the camera back from Sony. The tech did not read the letter explaining the problem, tested the battery and pronounced it good, then returned the camera without actually fixing it. Useless.Update 2: After giving up on the useless Sony technical support, I took self-help and foisted the turkey back on Sony at their store. The replacement so far has not exhibited the same problems. I took it on a 10 day trip to Rome and did not have to charge it once. The pictures I took came out well. What I particularly like about the camera is the size. I LOVED being able to carry it in my pocket knowing that it can take as good a picture as most of the massive DSLRs I saw other people lugging around. I LOVED being able to take pictures in any light without a flash. The controls are easy to operate. Frankly, though, I care much more about the artistic aspect of photography than the technical. I found it laughable to see yet another person using their expensive camera to take yet another picture of the Colosseum, as though something novel might be revealed. A good picture is unexpected, and depends more on the eye of the photographer than the equipment s/he is using. The size of this camera makes it discrete, and that helps capture the unique moment. The sophistication of the RX100 makes it possible to do that with technical quality as well.Overall, a big thumbs up to the camera, and a big thumbs down to Sony service (hence the 4 star rating not 5).

It took a while to purchase a good point and shoot camera that would equal at least or close to a DSLR camera when it comes to IQ. There are times I dont wanna bring my dslr because of the size and in some occasion I wished I had a decent camera with me. I was looking at M4/3 and even the Sony NEX's but bringing a lens or combination of lens is somehow a hassle. So, a fix lens or something that slips into my pocket is the only right choice but looking and reading the Specs on most point and shoot cameras are dissapointing...the downside is, small sensors. I dont care what everyone says but Im not a firm believer that a sensor smaller than an inch yield high quality pictures, There are some cameras that are exceptionssuch as the G series of the Canon line and well known brand like Sony. Then the Nikon V1 came out but still it didn't convinced me strong enough to pull the trigger. I know it's a good quality camera and the technological advances it packs in such a small form factor camera but I needed something with a fix lens. The G1X and G15 of Canon are good candidates but they are still big as a pocket camera. Then Sony RX100 came out, read the specs, and finally oredered it from Amazon. My first reaction when I opened the box like a kid opening a box of toy was the size. This camera is packed with technology in a small form factor which I really want. I like the feel, its solid metal and it doesn't feel cheap. Overall construction is superb and the lens..my favorite, Carl Zeiss lens with a "T" designation. It takes stunning picture and it beats my T2i with kit lens attach. Sony's color, clarity,and contrast is hard to beat. Im still a Canon fan and uses Canon 5dII and few L lenses and one of which is the 24-105mm IS USM L. As I have mentioned earlier, its just a huge gear to pack all the time. Now, Im a Sony fan specially when it comes to their compact cameras. I highly recommend this camera to anyone who wanted a professional camera in a point and shoot size body. Just amazing. Love it.

I've had a number of point and shoots throughout the years (lost count) and currently have a Canon entry level DSLR. While the RX100 will not perfectly match the sheer quality from a full blown SLR, it comes about as close as a point and shoot compact possibly can right now.The RAW format makes for some amazing photos. A few quick edits in Lightroom and photos are consistently superb. RAW allows you to adjust exposure and color balance after the fact so I'm not spending time thinking about setting the right levels while shooting. Very convenient. Don't know what RAW is? Not to worry. The RX100 produces great looking JPGs as well.Pros: Fast lens, large sensor, compact form factor (fits in my jeans pocket). How can you go wrong? Standard micro-USB connector is a huge plus.Cons: The lens ring does protrude a bit so it's not as tiny as some of the ultra-compacts (Canon Elph).Bottom line: RAW format capability, fast lens, fast focus, good low light performance equals a very capable compact with few compromises. Gets close to SLR quality in a take-it-anywhere compact format.P.S.: Earlier batches of this camera were produced in Japan while current production runs are from China. You may still be able to purchase the Japanese model if you try hard enough, but from all my research, it appears they've worked out some of the kinks from the initial Japanese runs. The China models appear to have a more consistent quality (smoother focus ring, more solid mode dial, no wobble in the lens housing) and less chance of dust on the sensor from manufacturing.

I have been using this camera since August of 2012. I think it's the best available compact camera in the market. But it has one big Achilles heel: It is not built with heavy duty parts, and therefore will start failing after a a year around the time the warranty expires. It will start not responding to the zoom lever, the mode selector, the review switch, etc. I sent it for repair just before the warrantee expired, and they had to replace the master switch. Unit was returned working in July, 2012. On December, 2012 the issues started again, and I have had to send it for repair again, now out of warrantee for around 120 dollars.So if you use this camera everyday, like I do, get an extended warranty from Sony because the switch is not built for heavy users.Since I am going on a trip, I have had to purchase another RX-100 (the M II). I'll keep my fingers crossed, that it's sturdier than my favorite RX-100.

I am a professional photographer and only carried this camera as a backup-It was carried in my bag. It stopped working when it was 14 months old...lens would not retract and it froze Sony wants to replace it with the same camera which I do not want for $330+ dollars...they have a better newer model out and I would prefer to have that if I am going to pay such a high price though I am not really happy with the camera....Dealing with the service center in the Philippines is a nightmere. I spent several hours during the week -many calls....on the phone trying to get through to the repair service . ....I use the wonderful Canon 5D mark III which I have had no trouble with. Canon pro is so easy to deal with and is very responsive....Sony needs to look at their service center and provide better customer service and repair for their cameras.

After my Canon S100 died of fatal "lens error", I wanted another point-and-shoot of similar size. Reviews of the Canon S110 revealed problems with that model also, so I decided to let Canon sort that out before buying another camera of that series.After using this Sony RX100 for several months, I'm not sure I would buy it again. It works, and the resolution is fine, but several things about it bother me.It can only display the electronic level OR the histogram; not both at the same time. When you adjust the exposure compensation, the histogram disappears momentarily. I have to cycle through the display options to get from one to the other.My Canon G12 and SX50 HS display both level and histogram simultaneously. I use both when I'm taking a shot. I know the S100 didn't have a level. I'm not sure about the S110.The "movie" record button is easily accidentally activated, since that's where your thumb naturally falls. I've almost gotten used to avoiding it.I wish it had a neutral density filter. I didn't check the specs before ordering it; my bad!When powering it down, it takes a long second, at least, before the lens retracts.This camera slows down my shooting. Sometimes that's good, but a point-and-shoot implies "hurry and get that shot".The Canon S100 was for me a perfect pocket camera! RIP

I bought this camera for a trip to S/E Asia, and it did not let me down. For its size, it delivers amazing pictures and the videos are excellent. Not the cheapest pocket camera by any stretch, but it does in fact fit in your pocket. The large CCD works well in relatively low light, and it is fitted to an excellent lens. The only downside is the menu and buttons, which I found required some time to figure out. The instructions are useless. Great hardware, but not the best documentation. I strongly recommend this camera for travelers, as it fits in a pocket or purse, and delivers near SLR images.

I bought the DSC-RX 100 for Christmas 2012. Had problems with the camera since it was new! The biggest problem is the flash would never flash( even in fill flash mode ). Have called Sony many times trying to resolve the issue! Finally I sent it in for warranty repair. It is 8 months old now. Sony called today and said it had been wet and would not warranty the repair!!! The camera was my pride and joy! It has never been close to water or moisture !! But Sony saying it got "wet" puts the problem back onto the consumer. Had a warranty problem with Sony in 2010 on an almost new camera. Same result! Would not warranty the problem! I swore back in 2010 I would never buy a Sony again! I did again with the DSC-RX 100 and got screwed again ! Buyer beware!! Sony is having major problems with this camera and is not wanting to stand behind it!! ( read other forums about this camera!! I am not the only one !!) Sad the government cannot force the manufacturer to recall these cameras, like they do the auto manufacturers when there is a problem! Sony and nobody cares......it is only a $650.00 camera, nobody is going to die because it is junk like in a defective automobile ! Beware !! Do not buy Sony! You have no warranty !!

I've had a Canon 20d for about 7 years now. Love the quality of the pictures and the control you get, but recently, having 2 young kids, the size of the DSLR was becoming an issue: hauling diaper bags, stroller and a hefty camera was becoming too much for me. I first just wanted to find a cheap point and shoot to carry around, but the more I read reviews and thought about it, the less I was willing to compromise on quality. In comes the RX100. I read a lot of good reviews and looking at the expensive pricetag (expensive=good, right?) I realized I might be able to get both good quality and small form factor.The size of the camera is good. I've had it in my pants pocket a couple of time without case and its manageable.A couple of my "photography enthousiast" friends are getting this a their travelling light camera.Pros: - Picture quality. I find the image quality outstanding and the only reason I can think of bringing out my DSLR anymore would be for sporting event to use the range of my 17-250mm. - High ISO. RX100 will not popout the flash as much in semi dark conditions. Acceptable noise at high ISO. - Useful features/modes. The auto mode generally goes from landscape to macro at the right moment. - Body feels solid and though (thankfully) I have not dropped it yet, the RX100 feels like it would not fall to piece in such a tragic event. - The main reason I liked DSLRs over point and shoots was the lack of delays on DLSR: There again the RX100 performs. Just click, click, click. No delay. I have a Class 10 SD card and can just snap away, without missing a the moment.Cons: - Weak optical zoom - The lens ring is not used for what I thought it would be for (zoom or focus), but instead it is used for selecting options on the screen. I was kind of unhappy about that. - The lens sticks out of the body a little (up to the ring), basically adding a third of an inch to what you would expect of a point and shoot. - The popout flash is great, though I fear it will eventually break. When it decides to open up, I usually have my finger on it. Also it looks like it needs to be retracted in a certain way, not sure if third-parties using it will be as careful with it as I am...Awesome work on this one Sony.

RX100 will not popout the flash as much in semi dark conditions. Acceptable noise at high ISO. - Useful features/modes. The auto mode generally goes from landscape to macro at the right moment. - Body feels solid and though (thankfully) I have not dropped it yet, the RX100 feels like it would not fall to piece in such a tragic event. - The main reason I liked DSLRs over point and shoots was the lack of delays on DLSR: There again the RX100 performs. Just click, click, click. No delay. I have a Class 10 SD card and can just snap away, without missing a the moment.Cons: - Weak optical zoom - The lens ring is not used for what I thought it would be for (zoom or focus), but instead it is used for selecting options on the screen. I was kind of unhappy about that. - The lens sticks out of the body a little (up to the ring), basically adding a third of an inch to what you would expect of a point and shoot. - The popout flash is great, though I fear it will eventually break. When it decides to open up, I usually have my finger on it. Also it looks like it needs to be retracted in a certain way, not sure if third-parties using it will be as careful with it as I am...Awesome work on this one Sony.

A day is far to short to write much of a review, but I do have several comments worth noting. I ordered this camera over 2 months ago and have read every review on the internet I could find. Still actually having the camera with all the features seams overwhelming. I started with list in hand to set all the adjustments I knew I would want like picture size and aspect ratio, steady shot on both pictures and movies. I only use flash when I have to so I turned it off etc. Then I set it for JPEG/RAW. My goal was to Photoshop the RAW versions of those JPEG's that you just can't get the color or detail right. What I found is currently Photoshop does not support the RX100. That should change in a few months so I will continue to shoot that way on my next trip.Size matters and although it fits in a pocket I recommend a case attached to your belt. I was hoping it would fit into the case for my Cybershot but it's just a little too big. I'm currently using a case I got with some small binoculars 15 years ago and am still looking. My needs may be different from most. I need a small, quick to use camera that I can carry with me on trips. I shoot inside and outside at all times of the day or night and many times with little advance notice. When I return I spend hours turning the pictures and movies into DVD's to share with family and friends. What can I say, it's my hobby. I've found I won't watch hours of camcorder movies or look through photo albums but I will grab a DVD and of a trip and watch it.I too would like a separate battery charger and in the accessories mentioned in the literature with my camera Sony has one. Don't get too excited though. It says it will be available in July but so far they are not offering it on their website and neither is any other vendor offering one. I guess the camera is still too new.One day is not enough time to see how good it is in real life but I plan to take a 3 week trip through Russia this fall and will update my review then.It's day 2 and I'm finding a lot of interesting things. Buried in the menu is a large section of tips about how to set this camera for various shots. It's like the missing manual. They tell you how to make adjustments to auto to defocus the background, change the picture temp, change the ISO and vividness as an example. The more I play with this camera the more I like it. So far I've taken and deleted about 140 pictures just for practice. Some minor concerns. The battery life seems shorter than advertised and the door covering the charging USB seems fragile. These concerns should go away if they really bring out the separate charger this month.

Ужасно
Do not buy a Sony camera, 2 weeks after the 1 year warranty expired the motherboard of my DSC-RX100 camera failed. The camera had not been dropped or used in any extreme conditions. I have never experienced problems with any of my previous digital cameras, but then again I usually purchased Canon. The sony camera is feature rich but Very fragile.

My small and medium sized digicam ownership has run the gamut from Canon G3 through G11, ELPH S500 to SD980, and most recently a Fujifilm X100. I believe that the RX100 surpasses all of them easily in combining very high image quality with pocketability and ease of use.I have been thrilled with image after image that would have been lost to low light or poor focus in another camera. I have also been thrilled with the ability to bounce the built in flash in an improvised fashion by tilting the flash head. The focus is very consistent in its accuracy and the face detection feature can help win the day and is particularly useful in self timer portraits where the countdown does not begin until you enter the picture. This camera is very fast in startup and operation and that is what caught my attention when I first tried it in the airport duty free store. The only real limitation I find is that of the non-constant maximum aperture. As you zoom it declines from F/1.8 to F/5.6 creating some restrictions on distant low light or action shots (somewhat alleviated by higher ISOs such as 6400). Flare seems very well controlled and beach shots in sun blasted Cancun at midday look fine. The supplied battery does yeoman duty as I have not yet had to recharge during a day's worth of shooting and hundreds of shots. For enthusiast photographers there is plenty of control to allow innovation and once learned menus are easily accessed through multiple means. Image quality is good enough that this can serve as a DSLR backup or as a primary camera for a motivated and budget strapped photog. I now take this everywhere after the sale of my X100 which was simply too big and slow for my routine photography but made beautiful images.

Actually, this camera takes beautiful pictures. Unfortunately, it doesn't really do what I wanted it to do. The zoom feature is poor at best, and in low light it's just plain terrible. If you have any interest in using this camera to take pictures of anyone who is performing on a stage..... stop now and get another camera.

I bought it for my friend, who needed pocket-size camera with bigger than other compact camera's sensor and C.Zeiss optics, although I didn't recommend him this cameraIt is giving good quality of image, but I would never buy it for myself for few reasons:1. this is most important - camera doesn't have viewfinder! It means, you can't see what you are shooting under sunshine.Maybe it was designed for low light only. If so - you will have deal with noise, which any compacts have if ISO setting is higher than 800, or even 400. Also, if you use camera without viewfinder, you are loosing stability providing by position of the camera pressed to your face2. Camera is very small and therefor is not very comfortable in hands.3. Menus are complicated Unfortunately this crazy idea of camera without viewfinder is very popular between camera makers and beginners (amateur photographers).I am not professional, but very advanced amateur with 55 years of shooting, developing, enlarging and printing my images by myself (now using Photoshop instead of wet darkroom).I prefer to use Nikon's DSLR and Panasonic FZ200 cameras (the last one is very good for traveling when weight is critical). Both my cameras are giving me perfect images, both have perfect viewfinders, full manual controls, well designed menus and many more, while Panasonic also has perfect Leica 24x zoom with f/2.8 throwout the whole zoom range and perfect optical stabilizer.Maybe Sony RX100 will be good for some people, but I prefer tonot recommend it to my friends.
