Отзывы о Фотоаппарат Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100

I've owned numerous point and shoot cameras throughout the years from various manufacturers (Sony, Canon, Nikon, Olympus, etc.). Although I have been fairly satisfied with their results, I've been wanting to upgrade to a camera with better picture quality (larger sensor), but have resisted getting a heavy, bulky DSLR. For the past year, I've been considering the line of 4/3 format cameras such as the models from Olympus and Panasonic, as well as the Nikon 1, but still felt these cameras were not as compact as I would like. When the Sony DSC-RX100 was introduced, I was immediately impressed with it's specs (20MP 1" CMOS sensor, F1.8 Zeiss lens, 1080p HD video, etc). After reading all the rave reviews from professionals and consumers alike, I decided to order the camera. It arrived a day before my vacation trip to Cancun, so I didn't have a lot of time to become familiar with the camera's functions. What I found was that the camera was incredibly easy to operate despite the vast assortment of functions and shooting modes. It's bright, hi-res 3" screen is easily viewable in direct sunlight. The controls are well placed and easy to access. The camera's size and weight is well balanced - definitely pocketable! The fit and finish is very high quality. The RX100's most impressive attribute is its picture quality! The camera produces very crisp and detailed pictures! As I reviewed my photos during my trip on the camera's screen, I could tell the pictures were brighter and sharper than those I was accustomed to with my other point and shoots. However, when I returned home from my trip and downloaded the pictures on my PC, I was floored by the sharpness of the pictures. I was amazed that I was able to crop some pictures to a quarter of their original size and still maintain sharp detail. I also took some 1080p 60p video which looked amazing on my HDTV. My only complaint is that the camera's aluminum case makes it ease to slip out of your hands. It would have been nice if Sony had included a textured grip or surface on the front side. The easy fix is to use the included wrist strap.I'm so glad I held off for this incredible camera. I highly recommend it.

Camera technology is advancing at a staggering pace. We've reached a point where amateur users can pick up a compact point and shoot camera and take shots rivaling those of a fullsized SLR of just 5 years ago. The RX100 is that camera. I myself was lugging around a Sony Alpha A57, which is a current generation SLR. I found that as a casual user despite the features and detachable lens capability I just didn't want to carry a camera bag around with me everywhere. I even left it at home on a trip to europe, opting to take shots with an iphone instead, how sad!The RX100 is a close to perfect camera for someone who wants SLR quality photos without having to carry around a large camera an several lenses. In my opinion the best features are:Picture quality-20 MP and a 1" sensor makes for really nice pics.Lens-The zoom is impressive for a camera if this sizeShooting mode-The intelligent auto+ mode takes any guesswork out of most shooting situations, picking the best mode.Control-The camera will shoot in manual mode and raw format if you're not an entirely casual user.Video-1080p, the quality is very good.So, cons? There are a few:Price-Yes, you're paying a premium for a pocket point and shoot, the price of an entry level SLR camera in fact.Size-Yes it's a 'pocket' camera. If you're wearing baggy jeans. If you're a skinny jeans wearing hipster forget about it, or forget about putting anything else in your pocket. Goes fine in a jacket though.Flash-Not that the flash doesn't work, but it's a popup that's right where your left index finger will sit when taking shots. A little annoying.Charging-No external charger for the battery, really Sony? I have to plug in the camera to charge a battery? What if I want to leave one charging while I'm out and about?Other than that it's hard to find fault with this camera. It takes better pics than a camera this size has any business taking. I just wish I had this camera a few months earlier and saved myself the iphone shots around Prague.

I've been taking this everywhere I go since it fits so easily in my bag. I can even carry it in my coat jacket without feeling like I'm lugging anything around. Super light camera and pretty good 20MP sensor. I just wish it was full frame, but then you'd probably be stuck with interchangeable lenses.

Awesome camera.Let me start by saying that I am a chronic review reader and gear nut. I love my gear almost as much as my photographs. I am also not easy to please, given my other two kits are a 5D Mark II and an OM-D E-M5.This camera produces the best image files (by a country mile) of any camera remotely close to this size. ISO 125-400 is definitely the sweet spot for the little guy and with enough light, i.e. outdoor shots, the resolution rivals the 5D II. I know that sounds crazy but it is true. Sony hit a home run with the lens / sensor combo.Keep in mind, it cannot perform miracles in low light or for fast moving subjects. Also anything above 800 ISO starts to look a little rough, although I have not had a chance to play with the RAW files in LR4 (waiting for adobe to release an update). The f/1.8 is only available at the very widest focal length but it is still very helpful to have, and f/4.9 is not terrible for the long end. The focus is quick and accurate. Colors and Metering are also great.The only feasible addition that would have made the RX100 even better and warranted a 5-star rating would have been touchscreen focus and touch shutter release. Changing focus points is not hard, but that would have made the camera even more transparent. I cannot understand why Sony did not include this given the touch focus already exists on the NEX-5n. I guess they are saving some tricks for the next generation.Also, the size takes a little getting used two. It's TINY!!!! This is great for pocketing the camera but not as great for keeping it steady. I will also say the in-body stabilization on the OM-D is much better than the Steady-shot on the Sony RX-100. Still, it definitely helps.Overall, the RX100 makes a great, easily pocketable camera for sightseeing, landscapes and well lit conditions. Thinner DOF is much more attainable than any previous ultra compact. It performs admirably in lower light conditions, given what it is; a camera that is credit card sized and ways next to nothing. I humiliates the likes of the S100, LX5, etc. Just don't expect to get the performance in low light that you can get from a larger sensor (M43, APS-C, FF) and brighter, bigger glass.Thanks for reading, hope this is helpful.

I love this camera. I will never go on vacation without it. It takes excellent quality pictures, and still fits in my pocket!

I actually find myself taking BETTER photos with this then with some DSLRs. Fantastic quality. Great bokeh. Easy to use. Love the HDR. Great battery life. I really can't find a con about this camera really.

Overall, it's a pretty cool camera. There are a lot of options to choose from for a beginner photographer like myself. It's compact and takes good pictures (even better pictures if you know what you're doing). I highly recommend.

I've had many cameras over the years, from film to digital, including the Canon 20D, 40D (L lens 24-70), and, currently, Nikon D300 (2.8 24-70). I wanted a capable camera I could carry around anywhere, anytime. I got the Canon S100, and was happy with it -- even though I found the shutter lag to be frustrating. I lost that camera while on vacation, and replaced it with the Sony RX100. This Sony is my favorite camera ever.The RX100 menus, and customizable buttons and dials, seem to provide much better access to functions than does the S100. I use the movable spot focus a lot. Sony allows you to assign that function to a specific botton, for quick access. Maybe the S100 does as well, but I never found a way to do it. Instead, I had to go through several button clicks to get to the movable focus spot. While the S100 did allow you to link the movable focus spot and the spot meter, the RX100 does not seem to have a movable spot meter, linkable to the focus spot or not; it's fixed in the center. But it does allow easy AE lock, again by assigning that function to a specific botton. I'm sure I never learned the S100 as well as it can be learned, but I've had this Sony for less than a week, and I already feel more control over my picture taking than I did with the S100.The autofocus is great. Really, really sharp. Overall, I'm very happy with IQ, from focus, to exposure, to low light performance.On the downside, the camera is a bit slow to start up, and even slower to shut down. It is slow in writing images to the SD card. But for speed from click to capture, it's been great.UPDATE -- 8/15: Just returned from vacation. This camera did not disappoint. The controls allowed me to set the camera as I wished quickly and easily. I especially like using the center spot meter to lock the exposure as I wanted, then to use the movable focus point to focus on my intended subject. There was hardly a dud among the nearly 1000 photos I took. Image quality is great. I'm very, very happy with this camera.

I purchased this camera in hopes of two things. Image quality and pocket-ability. It fits both criteria very well.The lens is sharp, while having some major distortion at the edges compared to the LX5 I own. It is faster and with much better DOF control than is available on the LX5 though, so that helps. On the long end of the zoom, it's barely passable as it has so much in focus that you cannot tell its even got aperture control. Sony would do well to have a max aperture lens that is around F2.8 - F3.2 on the long end for the next round of this lens.The body is sturdy, albeit with plastic bits where there should be metal. The fit and finish is nicely done, although I found it a little slick to hold. Have applied gaffers tape where my fingers touch/hold it. As mentioned, the flash is pretty flimsy feeling, though it offers the ability to use a finger to tilt it back and bounce the flash. That part of the flash is very cool for a P&S. Well done Sony for innovation.The sensor and resulting image quality are quite frankly, astounding for a P&S. If like me, you want the IQ that comes from an APS-C sized sensor and lens combo, this is as close as you will get in any P&S, IMO. Since I wanted the best available images, this is very pleasing to me. There are a slew of fun to use image effects and they actually look pretty good in some cases. The painted image is one I like (see the portrait of the girl in the gallery, with a before and after).Lastly, it goes in my pants pocket and is only marginally larger than my iphone with a case on it.This is the camera the new LX7 will be struggling against IMO. However, with an F1.4 - F2.3 lens that covers about the same range as the RX100, I would guess that you can get better looking images from the long end of the LX7. ?? We shall see soon enough.Overall, the RX100 is a keeper and will likely serve me for some years to come as long as Sony built a lasting product...

Bought the RX100 as soon as it was available at Amazon. My copy was Made in Japan. Image Quality was stunning - rivaled the Olympus OMD EM5.Was constantly amazed that something this small could rival m4/3.Sony really knocked it out of the park.Sadly, after 4 months of ownership a very conspicuous dust spot appeared on the sensor - too big and too central to simply forever clone out - suggesting that either the seal of the lens was inadequate or debris was in-camera at time of manufacture.I kept the RX100 in a small Lowe Pro case with belt loop. I take care of my optical gear. I have owned dozens of compact cameras over the years and have never encountered a dust problem with a fixed lens camera.Was very disappointed - again, the camera is a marvel - especially at this price point.Despite the time frame Amazon graciously supported me (Amazon gets 5 Stars in this saga). I am gun shy to order a replacement RX100. Although similar complaints are few, they are out there. Reports of Sony support on this issue are varied.[...]

It's small, light, and portable. But the most important thing is that its picture quality is impressive even though it has a such compact size.

I am a lazy photographer. I don't want to think about camera settings to get a great shots. The Sony DSC-RX100 does exactly that. Put it on "Auto" and let it rip. Unlike most cameras on Auto, the Sony takes stellar pictures...consistently. I am delighted and my friends think I'm a really good photographer (I'm not). The camera is simply awesome especially in low light. It's pricey but it's also one of the very best pocket cameras available. This is an example of actually getting what you paid for. Highly recommended.

I replaced my Cannon S90 after a few years of delight -- this is such a step up! The image quality is remarkable. I've barely begun to explore, but even on auto this thing takes fabulous images. I'm traveling in Asia, and have been enjoying going to the markets with this - getting up close to piles of spices or mountains of rice. You can easily set it so the background gets nice and soft -- really pretty. Shoot FAST and sharp. I used to do pretty serious photography, but now I'm more in the well-composed-point-and-shoot mode -- I just want to be able to have my camera in my pocket, but still get good images.There are a LOT of settings on this, and it's not entirely intuitive. I suddenly had the screen showing a different view, and it took me awhile to realize the multi-button wheel has a display change option. My other complaint is the flash - it seems a little flimsy when it pops up on it's unfolding ladder. The rest of this camera feels SO solid. It's a good bit heavier and a little larger than the S90, but it feels great in my hand. As the lens extends, there is a smoothness that reveals quality and substance.So - had it for about a month now and I would highly recommend to anyone who wants great images with ease.

I love it and the pictures are great. Not sure about the flash. It is flimsy and could break easily.

I bought a Sony RX-100 9 months ago and it took great pictures. The camera stopped working for no obvious reason. When I sent it into Sony I was told it had corrosion damage (even though it has never been exposed to water or high humidity). Saw some other reviews on amazon mentioning the same problem. Would not recommend buying this camera. Spent over 2 hours on the phone with Sony Customer Relations and they would not replace or repair the camera.

Pros:- Image quality superb, better than a lot of DSLR (and m4/3) and light years better than compacts available (I've already had the flawled Canon S100, Canon G10, Sony TX100V, Sony HX9V, Fuji 550, Sony DSC-N2, Panasonic ZS-10). Sony created a whole different category.- F1.8 Lens amazing at low light, tele end f4.9 not so much- Tiltable flash with 90ş makes amazing indoor pictures.- The video is unbelivable, I burn AVCHD DVDs to play on blu-ray and it is better than my store bought blu-rays.- Full manual controls.- Microphone's position perfect for low noise during windy days.- Pocket size with a 1" sensor is amazing, 20 MP picture simply perfect at 100% crop, even at low ISO.- Super quick and smart focusCons:- Pop-up flash have to be manually closed.- ZOOM WHILE VIDEO IS REEEEALLY SLOW!!- COLORS ON AUTO MODE ARE WEIRD LOOKING (COLD AND DARK), IF YOU ARE NOT A PROFESSIONAL, PICTURES COLORS MIGHT LOOK A LOT DIFFERENT FROM THE POINT-AND-SHOOT CAMERAS... On P mode I set the colors to Landscape, they got a lot better! I also recommend using the soft skin effect for a smooth skin pictures.- FLASH IS A LITTLE OVER EXPOSED ON AUTO MODE, I set to -1.0 on P mode.- Not the best camera for Macro pictures, the closest distance is 5cm. Other premium compacts allow you to get as close as 1cm.- Not as wide as some other premium compacts (28mm vs 24mm like Canon S100 and Panny LX7)Still the best compact camera ever made!

I don't mean this changes everything in the competitive camera landscape. I mean this changes everything for people. Especially if you have kids.I've had a Canon point and shoot which worked ok, but would always miss that critical shot. Right when my daughter is cracking the funniest smile, my compact P&S would take a second to autofocus (missing the moment), and then snap a photo either under/overexposed, blurry, or both.This Sony has really changed everything for me. For when you need to just capture those quick moments, you set to Intelligent Auto and just fire away. Shot after shot. This thing is QUICK. Most shots turn out clear, properly exposed, and properly saturated.For when you're searching for a really great photo, it has enough manual controls to let you frame things just the right way.The game changer is that you can have this camera with you far more often than your DSLR. I've had this for 1 day, and already I have more great photos of my kids than I got from a month with a compact P&S.Worth every penny.As for cons, I really wish it had GPS + tagging. Some of the UI is a bit counterintuitive and a bit finicky. The control ring could be a bit more responsive, but it's not bad. I hope some things will be improved with firmware updates.

This is an outstanding camera. I bought it as a travel/pocketable camera to avoid lugging or leaving a prosumer DSLR, and in that capacity, it gives me 90-95% of the functionality with 400% less hassle and weight. The intelligent modes work quite well. Macro is quite acceptable, low light is outstanding, and DoF is good. Having used it for travel, my only complaint is that I wish the lens went to 24mm or wider. In a couple situations, I found 28mm a little too long. Several times in indoor spaces, I found I couldn't get the full feel of a scene because I needed a little wider. Also, for some landscapes and some candid shooting, I love the Nikon 14-24mm on a DSLR. But that isn't a fair comparison in terms of cost, size or weight.In short, you have a triple constraint of cost, quality, and convenience levels with a given camera. This one gives you 95% quality and 95% convenience. Given that, I was happy to pay the cost. If you are even close to on the fence with this camera, I suggest you go ahead and get it from Amazon (risking only paying return shipping) and try it out in a real use scenario. I suspect you won't be returning it.

I am not a pro, just a grandma who travels and wants to take the best pictures of grandkids and low light European churches and museums with a camera that fits in my small purse. The Sony RX100 is that camera. I've used the Canon S90 for the last three years and have been very pleased, but the RX100 is even better! Others have reviewed that the screen can be easily scratched so I just put a BoxWave Clear Touch Crystal Screen Protector on my RX100. I ordered the screen protector for an Olympus Tough TG-810 which had almost the same dimensions as the RX100 screen. I had to trim just a little on one side for it to fit. I've used BoxWave screen protectors before and like the absence of bubbles and that they last a long time. After three years the one on my S90 is still good. Here is the BoxWave link: [...]

Doesn't the title say it all? It is, what it is. If you are looking for the best pocket size camera with near DSLR image quality, look no further.I was looking for a new, go anywhere, do anything camera. Started with the tried and true Canon, but the G1X was too expensive, too slow in performance, and above all, way too big. Also considered the Canon S100 and was almost sold on it, but after the recent Canon recall for the S100 due to the ongoing lens error, thought it was best to stay clear of it. Beyond that, no other manufacturer offered a pocket size camera with such a huge sensor.If you are looking for a new camera I definitely recommend this camera. Given the pocket size, you are more likely to use it and always have it with you...that is the purpose of a camera. Something to take with you, not having to lug around and distract from your event.But don't take my word for it, see what the expert reviewers have to say: (...)

1. Other Sony cameras had the battery life left indicated in minutes, not bars so one could know accurately when to change it.2. the camera is too hard to grip, making a wrist strap and 2 hands mandatory. Google 'camera grip for Sony RX100' for a solution.3. Lack of a manual (except on-line,) even on a CD, hides the versatility and depth of the camera's ability.4. For close-ups, the large sensor and longer lens that goes with it work against you, but they give you better cropping ability on normal scenes at higher image sizes (20mb.)Otherwise, a nice piece of hardware and software, my 1st choice to take with me (vs. my 2 other Sony's- an R-1 and an HX-9V.)

This is a great camera. It is suprisingly small with the lens retracted. It has many features that I haven't used yet but one of the picture enhancements is "Illustration." I took a picture of our vet's cat and Illiustration drew black lines around her whiskers, eyes, eyeballs, etc. It makes a very interesting picture. This camera has received top of the line reviews and I agree with them. It is truely a professional's point-and-shoot. It has a Zeiss lens which is extremely sharp throughout the zoom range. It has a metal body and is built like a tank.

One of the negatives of this awesome camera is that there is no complete manual excerpt on line.No longer true.Amazon will not let you post links but if you Google "Sony Rx-100 Manual" you will find it in the dpreview website as a pdf - as Sony should have done to start..

I have only had the RX100 for a few days, but I have already decided to sell my often used S95 and barely used LX-5 on ebay. The RX100 is NOT just marginally better than both, it is a quantum leap in image quality. My wishes for the next iteration: 24mm at the wide end and a paper manual... otherwise great job by Sony on this one!!Update: While the image quality of this camera was indeed excellent, I found that I did not like the day-to-day ergonomics of this camera. I have since sold it.
