Rated 5 out of 5 by from Useful little pice of kit This is a great little convenient camera. So easy to carry rather than the Mirrorless Full Frame camera and lenses that I gave up in order to make my photography easier. Good quality photos produced and a nice quick camwra as well. I have found the buttons a little fiddly but that is partly because of my sausage fingers and transitioning from a large Mirrorless cameras. I'm still trying to get used to the whole camera setup and menus as it differs somewhat from my previous Canon camera. The menus maybe could be a little easier and with better terminology in the user manual. One thing I'm struggling with is the vignetting and image distortion when using the short lens lengths. Even in post processing doesn't always eradicate the problem in my images.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Many problems This camera is surprisingly complicated to use. The digital display of date and icons to tiny and not enlargeable. The on/off button is very sensitive such that the camera can be turned off and on accidently. All in all, the camera is not really very practical or useful.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Brilliant peice of kit Upgrade from M1 to this camera, for extras including the telephoto lens. So easy to use, the burst capacity is fantastic to get that picture you really wanted. The best camera I have ever owned.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Super long range and eye focus. Unfortunately the supplied cable on my 2017 Mk5 gave way and the screen bounced off. Still could use the eye viewfinder but this was uncomfortable for editing.. every camera shop wanted £50 to send the camera to Sony and then all suggested minimum £250 repair but possibly more and all suggested buying second hand! Decided to go for the extra telephoto 130mm reach of the Mk7 and its new minimum touch screen features. The new animal human eye focus is super but does take time in switching to spieces to attain that feature. The extra reach and of course the option for 20MP extra focus editing does have some limitations at full focus range as the quality does seem to get noisy. This noise is also present in the fact that for the extra focal length there’s a lesser aperture in comparison to the MK5 which also has twice the nighttime iso range. Otherwise a great pocket go to and the new only slightly larger size and weight is imperceptible to the hand and I actually managed the movie function easier than the MK5 when using the eye viewfinder. I just hope that the new camera cord supplied doesn’t sheer as the last did. That would be another area for improvement by opening the cast lugs so that metal rings could be attached for greater security and more durable straps.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Incredible little camera After just a week with this camera, I’m astounded by just how capable it is. It’s truly pocket sized and I take it wherever I go. In fully automatic mode it takes great pictures but the semi automatic and manual modes are easy to use and allow much more creativity. I’m delighted with it

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Lovely little camera I wanted a camera small enough to take with me in my pocket but which would give good quality imagse. I'm pleased with the quality I've managed to get, even in the dull light we've had for the last few weeks. The 'expose for highlights' setting has proved particularly useful, although of course the images then need some post-processing to bring the shadows up. Impressive amount of detail in th eimages with or without zoom. I had a quick look at a video online before I visited the shop to have a look at the camera - it's pretty intuitive but I hadn't owned a Sony before. It's been quick and easy to pick up and navigate the menu.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Misleading Cash-back Offer and poor customer servi No problems at all with the camera. A good bit of kit. But I purchased with the £100 cash-back offer and Sony seem to use every excuse possible for not honouring the offer. Firstly I had to send a pic of the camera showing the serial number. Then they wanted a pic of the box. The latest is them wanting a pick of the camera, showing the serial number and being hand held- this is quite tricky to to with a mobile phone. SO BUYER BEWARE

Rated 5 out of 5 by from LIke a mini full frame A7Riii Perfect for the camera enthusiast who wants to leave their full frame camera at home. I'm blown away with the number of options in the menus (Very close to my A7Riii). The focus is amazing and the frames per second is awesome for action shots. With the optional thumb grip accessory it's comfortable to hold and easy to grip. Highly recommended

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Lovely Little Camera! So far the results have been stunning. I was worried the zoom would not be long enough but so far it has been more than adequate. Early days but very pleased I have not used video or flash yet. I will be buying the additional hand grip. You will need to download the full manual

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Does it all from manual to automatic. Pretty compact considering you get a pop-up flash, pop-up viewfinder and an adjustable screen. Really needs to come with the stick-on grip, which is cheap and makes the slippery camera 100 times better to hold and get out of a case. Fully auto modes lock out a fair few manual features, but there are degrees of manual functionality as you go through certain modes. The menu is clear and easy to navigate with help information for each option. They can be adjusted in a number of ways and via the quick menu you can customize, so once you're used to it you can select exactly the right settings very quickly. Great picture quality, very fine detail and metering is pretty accurate. You can set colour space and plenty of effects to get images just how you like them. Very good focussing, down to selecting left or right eye on face detection. Lots of "gimmicks" that are actually useful, such as taking a picture when it detects smiles. The ultra high speed photography (up to 1000 fps) is limited in video length, but can deliver awesome footage. Focus/zoom ring is exceptional for manual modes. If you want a small compact camera that's going to be near SLR quality images, this is your best bet.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A lovely very compact camera Love the fact that it fits in a very small camera bag or a pocket. The lens has huge versatility. Even outside of the bigger sensor size that 200mm zoom makes it much more versatile than say a high end phone camera. The menu system could be easier to use. However I found an excellent video from one of the Sony Imaging Embassadors with an excellent guide on how to set it up for Portraits, Action and Landscape photography. Early days yet but I'm looking forward to putting this little beauty to good use.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Small camera on packs a punch I bought this camera recently and have been experimenting with it. so far I’m very happy with the results. It has many powerful functions and I’m not sure I’ll be able to enjoy all of them, but it will spur me to be a better photographer. My two chief annoyances are that the screen is not touch enabled and the ergonomics are not the best. This camera should have a grip, because it’s small and could easily slip given the material of which it’s made

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Review for RX100 VII Negative - Expensive for a travel camera - no geotagging - more advanced features than are needed for type of camera - Lack of grip requires separate purchase. Lack of touch facility to select menu items. Positive - advanced camera in a very small package - well made - good lens - good image - many advanced settings if needed.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from lovely little pocket camera lovely little pocket camera delivering good quality photos. I mainly use it for photos when on holiday. There to many compacts for just blogging!!! Some of us just want to take good quality photos so this camera is a god send for photos. I did try a quick video but it took me a while to fing the folder with the video, thats why I gave it a 4 star review, all my other cameras have put the videos in the same folder as images.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Camera with Outstanding Sony Quality I purchased this camera about 1 year ago and have been using it since. In December of last year, our family went to Italy for 2 weeks and I used the camera extensively. I really like the wide angle to telephoto range (24-200mm). I got some great photos and have posted to the photography forum I use online. Many compliments. I highly recommend this camera.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Misleading warranty info In the Sonry camera RX-100 M7 box, there's a paper says that if we register, it will extend the product warranty from 1 year to 2 years, but after I registered the camera, the warranty webpage still shows only 1 year warranty, so apparently the paper in the product box lied to us. Sony needs to fix this, otherwise your reputation is going to be very bad in lying to customers!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A great compact camera This VII is replacing a V and I wish I had upgraded when the VII was introduced. I was waiting for at VIII to come out, but happened upon someone who had the V11 and this made my mind up to purchase. A great zoom facility on such a small camera and the quality of photograph is excellent. The camera allows beginners to just point and shoot, whilst for professionals it is a great tool to simply fit into a pocket.

Am i glad i did Yes and no, Its a fantastic camera, very well made but i am disappointed with the image quality.I know it has a one inch sensor so cant expect it to be as good as a full frame but would have liked more detail and less noise Its not all bad though the lens has good reach and importantly for me it fits any of my pockets

Rated 5 out of 5 by from LCD articulated screen developed blotches I bought my Sony RX100 V7 camera in March 2022, with an extended purchase protection warranty for two years from Asurion, both purchased on the Amazon website. The camera takes excellent photos and I was happy with it. Until two days ago. Two days ago, I turned the camera on and discovered blotches all across the back screen. See my photos taken this morning. I had no idea what caused them as the camera was just sitting on a shelf. I had been really careful with the camera and even had bought a glass screen cover, which was on the back of the LCD lens from day 1 so the problems weren't on the outside of the screen. The camera lens also was clean so it wasn't the lens either. After doing some online research I learned that THIS CAMERA HAS A DESIGN FLAW. Search yourself under "Sony RX100 v7 - LCD screen - blotches - adhesive". The adhesive that holds the digital screen fails after a couple of years and those blotches appear on the LCD screen. You cannot get rid of them. The articulated screen needs to be replaced. I checked my warranties and (1) the original Sony warranty was only for ONE YEAR and (2) my purchased ASURION two-year warranty has also expired in March 2024. Then I remembered that I have a credit card that adds another year to the warranty so I figured that maybe I was still within the three year warranty period. Nope. What the credit card warranty covers is a year after the original manufacturer's warranty so my credit card covered the same time period as the Asurion warranty I had purchased with the camera (2 years from March 2022 so March 2024). But no longer. In other words, I wasted my money both buying the camera and buying the extended warranty! I am posting this review here because this camera is still available for purchase. Do not buy it unless you get at least a three year warranty from SONY that covers manufacturer's defects including the glue adhesive bubbling behind the articulated screen. Even better, buy a different product. And, if you have a credit card like mine that does offer another year of extended warranty protection, the protection is only on the original manufacturer's warranty, not on any secondary warranty so don't buy the second warranty. It doesn't help.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Almost perfect This is by far the best compact camera I have ever owned. I found adding a stick on grip to the front made it easier to handle. The only thing I would change about it is the fact that when taking photos in landscape mode, if you are wearing polarised sunglasses, the screen appears black. (In an earlier model I own, this occurred when taking photos in portrait mode. As I take more shots in landscape mode, I would have preferred Sony not to have made this change.)

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Quality in a Small Package I previously had an RX100 M1 and loved it but it stopped working after dropping it. I then went on to an a6000 which is a great camera with interchange lenses. However, it is small but it is very easy to start adding and carrying gear including lenses tripods filters etc and before you know it you have quite a big bag. While I am keeping the a6000, I wanted something small but with similar quality so bought a new RX100 M7. I find that I am getting similar quality images with the RX100 M7 as with the a6000 and that includes that I have the 90 mm macro lens which is very good. With my first RX100 I was mainly shooting auto but now it's mainly manual with occasional use of 'scene' for flowers. I am delighted with the new camera and especially the image quality and often get my shot first time which was not always the case with the a6000. The fact that you can virtually carry it anywhere further adds to its appeal and there is no excuse not to have it with you.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Exceptional Image Quality The image and video quality is exceptional. Unfortunately you need to purchase Sony's "stick on grip" to make the camera useable, it would be very easy to drop without this. Have taken about 900 photos with no issues however last time out it froze and I had to remove the battery. Looking on the internet this seems an issue. Using a SanDisk Extreme Pro cards.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A Little mighty Camera - Sony RX10 MVII I Bought this camera as a travel camera. I already have a Sony RX100 MkIII which has a longer-reach lens but its bulkier and gives one away as a tourist when one is desperately trying to mingle with the locals! It is a brilliant camera and takes fabulous photos. If you have experience of the Sony 1" chip sensor then you'll appreciate its capability already. Buy this camera if you want a camera that takes good photos in well (to nearly well) lit environments. You can put it in your pocket, on your belt or in a hand bag. It weighs 300g approx. so it's light. If you buy this camera then you MUST consider buying a "grip" for it as without a grip you're more than likely to drop it. It is not Tactile. Sony should have included this in the original design but haven't and that is a shame on such a resourceful and innovative conglomerate company.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A quality DSLR in my pocket I wanted something that did more or less what my Canon DLSR does, but I needed it to be smaller and more portable, as I have got to the stage where, often, no longer pack my DLSR and additional lenses when I go out hiking because I don't want the additional weight and bulk. Basically, I got to the stage where I would think "I can take decent RAW photos on my iPhone". What I was missing, though, is the creative control you have with a DSLR. I did dome research and discovered the Sony RX-100 VII. It truly is a pocket size DSLR. It has a focal range of 24mm-200mm and gives me virtually all of the control that my DSLR gives me i.e. aperture and shutter priority, depth of field, focus control, exposure control and exposure lock and so many more. The picture quality is excellent. It also has a host other photographic auto modes that deliver fantastic JPEG photos for times when you just need to snap something quickly. Then there are all the video capabilities. One more thing I will mention, it has a pop up viewfinder, which lets me use the camera the same way as I use my DSLR for most shots, although the Live View screen on the back of the camera is excellent as well. I could go on and on about this camera. It is a photographic gem and it goes everywhere with me now.

Easy to carry around for general shooting on holidays etc. Excellent features similar to the Alpha but with the addition of latest face and eye AI for humans and animals. Mainly shoot in Aperture priority but the scene modes work very well. The 24-200 focal length is very good as is the focusing. Only limit appears to be the maximum f11. Downloading of photos is a bit confusing but works very well using the Imaging Edge Mobile app. once sorted. Video not fully tested yet but lots of choice available and tracking feature is excellent. Menu can be a bit confusing if you are not used to the Sony system.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Pocketable power This was the very pocketable camera I was looking for to compliment my a6400. This albeit expensive compact digital camera is very powerful and has a lot of the same menu functions as the larger one. It is so easy to learn as a result and can go where I need to travel ultra light or in crowded environments. The picture quality is outstanding and the ability to shoot RAW photos is a welcome addition. Although not the smallest or lightest in its class, it will fit in any pocket I have and be unobtrusive. I am very happy with my decision to buy the camera.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Probably my favourite of all the cameras I’ve own. I bought this a few weeks ago. I intended to use it for everything but wildlife, birds in flight etc, for which I have micro four thirds gear. But I’m so impressed by the autofocus that I may change my mind and use it for everything. Although it’s very ‘industrial’ looking, it’s great in the hand, thanks to its extremely light weight and comfortable grip. The controls are a little constrained by the camera’s size, but work perfectly well with a bit of familiarisation. I prefer having a lighter, smaller, camera than a larger one to accommodate more dials etc. Image quality is excellent, although I find the default (ST) Creative Look a bit intense. I prefer FL, which is pleasing and can easily be tweaked in post if necessary. I don’t find noise an issue. The camera is very responsive - especially the autofocus, which is the best I’ve ever experienced (having owned high end cameras from Sony, Canon, Fuji, OM System and Panasonic). In fact, the AF has to seen to be believed. I have only two complaints: the EVF could be larger with a bit more resolution and the rear screen would also benefit from higher resolution. Although both are perfectly useable. Battery life is excellent. This is probably my favourite camera of all that I’ve owned - a great balance of size, weight and performance.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Outstanding performance I was looking for a high quality, ultra compact camera for when I travel, and after exhaustive online research and trying various manufacturers and models in store, I chose the RX 100 VII and I am delighted with my choice. The auto focus is as good or better than any I have experienced on any camera bridge/mirrorless. Virtually every shot comes out pin sharp and perfectly exposed. The quality of the images this camera produces is outstanding. As well as being accurate, the auto focus is super fast and you can turn the camera on point and shoot in under a second! The camera has all the functionality you could need, and whilst navigating some of the functions takes some getting used to, with practice and experience it becomes quite quick and easy to change essential settings as you go along. I have had a passion for photography for over 40 years and have some very good cameras over the years, and I would go as far as saying this is my favourite camera that I have owned! If you’re looking for an ultra compact camera that packs an impressive punch and delivers images worthy of a much larger camera, then look no further!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Flawed product Bought this product 3 months ago and it has had to be returned to Sony for repair. For a product that is expensive not impressed, as it appears that it's failure to boot up is not uncommon

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Compact camera with extensive features I am still learning to use this camera having only had it a couple of weeks. It seems very capable, but not always straightforward to find exactly how it operates, even using the 600+ page manual. For example, although the manual may say how to turn on or off a feature, there is no explanation of what that feature may do... which for a novice is less than useful! With experience, I will learn how to use more of its options

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Super technology makes this a worthwhile upgrade I bought this to replace an aging but very useable Panasonic LX5. I am really pleased with the IQ, viewfinder, first class focussing system and the reach of the tele lens. In fact the only aspects of this product I would say detract from it a little are its price, the fact that the small batteries require replacing or recharging fairly frequently and the fact that the accessory grip and a neck strap are not included in the package for optional use, at such a high asking price. The results are great, though.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Sony RX 100 VII I bought the RX100 M7 a month ago and it was my second choice as I was hoping to purchase a compact LUMIX camera with the 360mm zoom. As it was discontinued, the Sony was my next available option. I am so pleased with this compact and a recent trip to Spain allowed me to test its functions and picture quality. I am still very much a novice on its menu and all functions, but have downloaded a couple of manuals and watched a few YouTube videos on its operation. I would say there is a steep learning curve for this compact camera, however It has been well worth the time and patience to get to grips with all its various shooting modes. The analogue zoom can be extended with a “digitall extension” in camera software menu. Resolution suffers at the end of this zoom range but that is to be expected. Overall I am very pleased with the picture quality, raw and jpeg and video. The camera footprint is small but feels heavy and well made. I would recommend this camera if you want a compact zoom and video camera option for travel.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from In a relationship with this piece of kit. Well it's a bit early to judge, heck we had the last one for 8 or 9 years, but so far yeah, everything is great. The longer lens has been a bonus- a little unexpectedly, I didn't think we would use the extreme end too much. It's a great piece of kit, so solid and so small that it's ever present. We did add a bottom plate and grip accessory- last time we added the stick on grip which worked well too. Picture quality is very good for a sensory this size.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Third Eye Im visually impaired ( left eye) therefore I miss a lot of what is on the screen. The EVF on this little beauty has given me my love of photography back. I had been using another camera for the past year ( no EVF) sunlight was a huge disadvantage for me. I absolutely love the pop up EVF simple to use and helps me get much clearer views of my subject. I've only just begun to explore the numerous settings. I think to date, the one I use the most is the "clear zoom" getting me so much closer to my subject.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent compact camera The Sony RX 100 v11 is now my main camera that I use. It is very neat and fits into my pocket . It takes beautiful pictures. It has a lot of very useful features including very good cine . My DSL camera with all the lenses is now too heavy to carry around especially going on holiday . I do belong to a photo club and phots with this camera do very well in competitions.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Pocketable power This was the very pocketable camera I was looking for to compliment my a6400. This albeit expensive compact digital camera is very powerful and has a lot of the same menu functions as the larger one. It is so easy to learn as a result and can go where I need to travel ultra light or in crowded environments. The picture quality is outstanding and the ability to shoot RAW photos is a welcome addition. Although not the smallest or lightest in its class, it will fit in any pocket I have and be unobtrusive. I am very happy with my decision to buy the camera.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great little discreet camera This camera, for its size, takes excellent photos. The image quality and rapid focussing is everything the reviewers say. Some say the zoom is too long but I disagree, it gets you right up close and produces images you would otherwise not have got. It sets it apart from a Smartphone. It feels solid, but the buttons are small with little feel. It's also a little slippery, the Sony grip (which costs an extra £12) should be included as part of the package.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A brilliant compact! I used RX100 IV for many years with its versatile 28-70 zoom lens always helpful as a second and compact camera. I recently upgraded to VII. Its even more versatile 28-200 zoom lens and improved responsiveness, it is a fantastic compact to carry in my pocket and also accompany my main camera. Its features are excellent, beautiful rendering of colour, and autofocus speed sometimes it beats my main camera. I love it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A nice bit of kit Bought it to use with the Ronin Mini 3. Seems to be a sturdy piece of engineering. Well manufactured. My initial use confirms very fast AF but I haven't yet tried it in low light or high contrast. If everything else is as good as the build quality I don't expect to be disappointed.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great camera, Nearly there as the best in class Great camera, pretty much gives everything you would want from a camera this size. Could do with a built in ND Filter and an F1.8-2.8 lens to put it over the top as the very best in class.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A lovely very compact camera Love the fact that it fits in a very small camera bag or a pocket. The lens has huge versatility. Even outside of the bigger sensor size that 200mm zoom makes it much more versatile than say a high end phone camera. The menu system could be easier to use. However I found an excellent video from one of the Sony Imaging Embassadors with an excellent guide on how to set it up for Portraits, Action and Landscape photography. Early days yet but I'm looking forward to putting this little beauty to good use.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best compact ever until it broke If you have tried any other makes of the few compacts still available, you should know how much better the Sony Rx cameras are. However for a £1000 compact it broke with software issues and dust on the sensor so I'm very angry and unable to afford a replacement

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Feature packed pocket rocket of a compact camera Just took this to Athens with me and I love this little camera, it's so full of great features and incredibly convenient to carry around as my perfect travel camera. Autofocus is its strong point just can't fault it. What pleasantly surprises me is just how good the image stabilisation is compared to my A7Riii it's much better. I can take handheld shots at slower shutter speeds and video footage is way better stabilised. The power zoom is smooth and very good for video. The 24-200mm lens is perfect as a travel lens and retracts to a tiny form factor when it's put away. I would say any slight wind ruins the audio so this is the worst part of the camera however it does have a mic input so can be overcome but no mount for a mic so I will have to improvise. Battery life isn't great but they are small and lightweight so no problem to carry a couple of spares then will last all day which allows the camera design to remain compact. The camera feels solid and well made although it is too slippery and easy to drop so I added a Sony stick on grip and it feels much better greatly improves handing and aesthetics, only cost around £14. Video quality is excellent and photos are also very nice for its size. Not quite the photo image quality of my full frame which is to be expected however I am still very pleased with the photos this produces. An ND filter would have been nice, but overall a great camera.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great travel camera Much smaller than even the YouTube videos appear. My main camera is a Canon 5D mk iv so the size is proving to be a bit of an issue. Not much space between buttons so it can be awkward to press the right one when using the viewer or when you are trying to capture a shot in a moment. Great levels of menu settings but it’s getting easier to manoeuvre as I am learning how to configure the options to suit my photography style. Reviewing images is not the best quality especially if zooming in but I take RAW images and they are much better in LR and Photoshop. Great setting options to suit all types of photography. Zoom, f/stop - great for controlling depth of field, shutter speed and ISO. The scene modes are also very good giving great tones and strong colours. Used this camera a couple of times out walking and have some great shots. Would highly recommend for travelling and where a big camera with a large lens is impractical or intrusive.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Pocket sized super hero of a camera Last year I bought a Sony RX10 IV as I wanted a superb long range camera but without the hassle of separate lenses. This worked very well but was still a bit large and heavy to take on holiday, but I really liked the versatility. Now I have the RX100 VII which is almost an RX10 in minature. For holidays this is a superb camera taking sharp photos in a variety of conditions.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Compact quality and versatility I bought this camera as an upgrade to my original RX100 and the M7 has all of those characteristics that made that camera so good and a ton of very valuable additional features consistent with such an evolved line of cameras. Anyone who shares my love of small, dense Japanese product design will be happy with the hardware. Subtly curved surfaces and tiny details, positive button feel, precise screen articulation and a smooth lens ring. All of the tiny slack that was present here and there on the M1 are banished on the M7. One small gripe is directed at the covers to the ports. Stiff, nail-breaking flaps that resolutely want to spring back, blocking access to the sockets. They are loosening up a bit but some proper hinged flaps would have been nice. Displays are good and the tiny viewfinder is terrific for framing in bright light. The articulation of the screen is so helpful for composing shots at odd angles, a feature that I use a great deal. These two make the M7 a much more versatile tool than most. The zoom range is just what I want from a compact travel camera, especially at the long end, and lens quality is what I would expect from Zeiss. Picture quality is excellent across the zoom range with only slight distortions at the extremes. Noise is well controlled and easy to eliminate using the current AI tools. You can have a great deal of control in the setup if you need it and I found a good set of assignments that make managing the camera comfortable and convenient. Overall a very satisfying camera to use that returns detailed and attractively rendered images in all conditions, and is a pleasure to own. While I have other, more capable Sony cameras, I can see from my own results that the RX100-M7 goes a long way to being the only camera a lot of people will ever need.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent camera I purchased the RM100 VII as I wanted a camera that not only had the option to “point and press” and do everything for me but also that would give me the option of taking a photo in my own way such as using the aperture option in particular when taking a macro shot. There’s a lot to learn with this camera if you want to get more involved with the Sony system, otherwise it’s easy to set up and use to take a quick photo on the go. I personally found the surface of the camera body a little slippy but I purchased a Sony jacket to protect the camera and the problem was solved as the jacket has provided me with a good grip now. The images I’ve taken so far are clear and sharp and the colours are absolutely lovely. I’m looking forward to seeing just exactly what this little camera is capable of.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Extraordinary camera with no rivals. I bought this camera a couple of months ago and I'm glad I did. I wish I had bought it years ago. It has a 24-200mm lens (35mm equivalent) but yet is one of the smallest cameras you can buy. The lens is very sharp, all settings. Auto focus fast and accurately. It has excellent pop up EVF, nice to use. Taken some 3,000 (street) photographs so far. Very pleased with the results. An incredible camera with no rivals. Some flaws however. The camera needs a firmware update. I believe there has never been a firmware update since its launch five years ago. For example: Flaw #1. On MR settings 1, 2, and 3 etc, if you switch the camera off at 200mm zoom setting, the camera will return to 200mm when you switch it on. Not good, as 99% of the time you will wish to switch the camera on again at 24mm zoom setting, not 200mm. On PASM and AUTO settings the camera DOES return to 24mm setting even if switched off at 200mm zoom setting. Flaw #2. If you use exposure compensation on lens dial (or elsewhere) the compensation stays set even after you switch the camera off. Not good. Many images are ruined because I shot the first few frames (after switching camera off & back on again) with exposure compensation still set. It should always return to ZERO after switching off camera. If user wishes to have ALL images ALWAYS plus/minus compensation, then use the separate setting provided in Menu for this. Flaw #3. RAW files do not render in Photo Mechanic. I have used many cameras, all render their RAW files in Photo Mechanic. The Sony RX100 is a camera which will be purchased by many serious amateurs and professionals. I am a professional and I have used Photo Mechanic for twenty years. Every professional colleague I know uses Photo Mechanic. It is not good that RAW files do not render in Photo Mechanic. The only workaround for this flaw is to shoot RAW + JPG and view JPGs.
