Agree that that this is currently the best P&S. Just upgraded from the HX9V as well. It won't quite replace my 5DIII, especially with my 50mm 1.2 or 85mm 1.2. But I will likely end up using the RX100 more, simply because I will have it with me all the time. You can perform AEL by assigning this function to the center button in the middle of the control wheel. Alternatively, the left and right buttons on the control wheel can be assigned to this function. Enjoyed your review. Thanks.
In addition to touch-focus and flip out screen, I would certainly want a front-side grip (like on the HV20) for ease of hold and avoid the risk of damaging when it falls.
Tougher than it looks huh :) As folks will find out, different coatings are used and some are friendly and some are not. The coating on the Sony LENS is not a friendly coating and it is hard to clean. I found that out real quick. I had to use my SensorSweep to get it done. I know, I am plugging my own stuff, but this sucker was hard to clean, and fogging it with my breath (no spit please) and using the SensorSweep was how I finally got it clean. Use the PeterGregg site link below to see it.
Hi Mr. Gregg, Well now I am a fan. Your vid was really well done and now it is time to get my Sony. Sold!! You are very clear and of course informative. I have read about this camera and I believe it also is ready to hunt bear all from your pocket. 'The best camera in the world ,I have heard it said, is the one you carry with you! "Thank you, Mr. Gregg
As xohmer said below, I added AEL to the LEFT button and moved the DRIVE mode to the Fn button. Now, I use the AEL lock to lock in exposure and then select my own focus point using the center button to activate the Flexible Spot and then use the arrows to move the focus point around. I am also adding grip (Google RX100 grip) and the brown or black Gariz case (Google Gariz case rx100). It has a metal base plate and moves the tripod screw to the center of the lens where it should be.
Thanks! A very entertaining review. I just ordered it yesterday for $408. Not the RX 100ii (can't justify the extra $ for the pivoting panel and a hot shoe I'd never use).
Great video, thanks. I sold my NEX6 and lenses when I switched to a Sony RX10 as I shoot stage productions and fumbling around in a darkened theater to switch lenses on the NEX6 was a pain. Also wanted a "take everywhere" camera and a backup to the RX10. Previously had sold my Sony HX9V, so thought I'd try the Pany ZS40. Image quality was awful compared to what I was used to from Sony, so sent the Pany back and just ordered a "new, in box" used RX100. Can't wait to get it. Also ordered White's guide to the camera for my Kindle. I like his guide books. Wish me luck. Love your videos! Thanks!!!
Bought this camera. Like it. Replacing my Canon S100 because the Sony RX100 is better in both clarity and sharpness, period. Each camera has pros and cons, but the Sony is the hands-down winner for image quality in my opinion. My new compact backup for my DSLR (D700).
hey peter thanks for the video. learned a lot. would you suggest me to wait for a new version of rx100 hopefully by next summer or fall when they work out the kinks of a first gen.
spot on review - wished it had the shoot to touch as well but hardly no cameras have it - and not always spot on like I have seen in the OMD but still a nice feature - as far as a flip screen - maybe a bit to much to ask for given the form factor - I would be afraid that it would make the camera not so sturdy - it needs to be as it will be in pockets and purses so it will take more beating then your OMD for example as it will always be in a camera bag for the most part. but an awesome gem
Awesome depth of field! You lean back and boom you're out of focus. Loves that. Good video, unfortunately the RX1 is way to expensive, not for what it delivers but for the average consumer. I think Sony has got too many different models in the same price range, That's confusing.
Hey Peter... Nice review... One quick question, What did you film this video with? Really nice and Sharp and Love the contrast... WOuld you mind saying what you filmed your (this) video with... Looks really nice. Your lighting set would be great to know also if you do not mind...Thanks again
Hey thanks, that worked well :) I put it to the LEFT button on the circular wheel and put the drive mode into the Fn button. Works well for me. I would also like to know if there is a short cut to put the focus point back to the center when it is far off center? Peter
hello, did you already find a solution for the focus and recomposition?? CAN you do it with this camera? With my dSLR, I do that all the time actually..... tnx.
I disagree! Peter points out what the RX100 is good for. It's for people who just want high image quality without carrying around a bulky photo device. Peter knows what he is talking about, he's a professional photographer.
Dear Sir. I own a Nikon d600, which is terrific, but I am seeking to upgrade. Besides the 36 pixel resolution, is it a better camera? Am i getting more, like the shutter speed for example?
Thanks for the great review Peter. I just sold my Canon S100. Was thinking about a Nikon V1, but your review has got me thinking about this baby. :) By the way, I have to say that your presentation's video quality is one of the best that I have seen on TH-cam! Would you care to share the "recipe" ? :) I know you said in the video that you are using a D800....but I am curious as to what lens, aperture, shutter, ISO and focal lenght is it? Look forward to more great reviews from you. Cheers!
Good video, thank you! In AF-S mode you have two focusing options with the big center button of the control wheel. One of them is focus on the object nearest to the center....... But I have an advanced question: did anyone try to clear the dusty sensor manually? I love my RX100, but recently got a spot on the center of a ...sensor, I guess (it is inside Actually, I accidentally dropped my little Sony RX100 in the toilet, but the camera recovered....Miracle :)
What about the Olympus xz-1 and xz-2 both smaller and a better overall package .. the omd-em5 was camera of the year 2012 so it is time nikon and canon users start to respect Olympus .. After all They are the mac of cameras . Great Review and looks like a great little camera .!
Grrr how come I didn't come across with yr video before I bought the RX100 a couple of weeks ago .. I did watch a lots of TH-cam videos & ask my friend what he thinks .. I did have Panasonic LF1 .. and getting Sony RX100 is for my sister whom is going to USA for the first time next month .. took me a long time to decide rather I should just lead my Panasonic LF1 or Buy the drop in price RX100 or the RX100 M3 as I was thinking if I get the latest version then I might not need to get another one for years .. I even went to Sony Shop in Hong Kong taking photos with Panasonic LF1 & RX100 & RX100 M3 .. but then I found out that only the original RX100 was made in Japan .. so I thought .. just go for it .. anyway .. just wondering have u use the LF1 too? What do u think of all these 3 cameras pls? Thanks a lot! Regards, Joe
I enjoy your opinion and agree to the extent that this little camera is by far Sony's greatest small camera to date but you may have over looked to mention that for the size of your G10 and same or similar dollar value of the Rx100 we can step up even more with Canon's G1X, bigger sensor and many more pluses. And to be fair, the S100, may have a smaller sensor but it's almost another level smaller and not to mention almost half the price of both RX100 and G1X. My point being, I don't believe th
What are your thoughts on the RX100 M1 vs M2? I like the rotating screen on the M2, but I wonder if it's worth the extra 100 to 150.. any other reasons to go for the M2?
The 1 inch sensor in a super zoom is its claim to fame, and that is what I have in my RX100 (which I like a lot). It may be a very important camera for a lot of people. I haven't gotten to test it, but on paper it is really interesting.
Not to forget Samsung's EX2F! Sony designed a real compact camera with an excellent image quality, the LX7 and the EX2F cannot compete with because of their smaller sensor, but these two rivals have advantages of their own!
awsome review, but now the Sony RX2 and RX3 is out which one should i really good i want good pictures but not worrying about complicated picture taking i use AUTO mode alot....love to hear your reply, have a great day Peter....
melanie boothe-tersigni The RX100 III is better. For still pictures just a tiny bit and not worth it over the 1 or II, for video the III is EXTREMELY better and totally worth it :)
HI sir, I have Sony Alpha 6000 it's great camera and I loved one. But I want little bit tiny camera to day to day use and best image Quality atleast try to match my Sony Alpha 6000. Can you tell me which one of the Following camera should I buy --- I have 5 Options and the options are. Sony Rx100 mark i or Mark ii or Mark iii or Nokia 808 or Lumia 1020 I need best image Quality like DSLR
Panasonic Lumix GX80/GX85 (same camera depending what part of the world you are in). Another alternative with a built in lens would be the Lumix LX100. The cameras you listed don't qualify for your question. If you want a phone, then the Samsung S7 or S7 Edge, but the first camera I listed is your best answer to your question.
HI Sir, I am not looking Phone, I looking camera that is fit my pocket using day-to-day use which is best image quality. Why I put option Nokia 808 and Nokia 1020. Nokia company and Nokia Fans said in the Internet and advertised and reviews said that they are replacing DSLR they have the best image quality. after checking Nokia 808 and lumia 1020 and Samsung S7 S7 Edge they have the limitations of Camera options and settings to take photographs like RX100 ii, ii, iii and Lumix GX80 and GX85 and LX 100 they have more options in their camera settings. thanks to reply
Yes there is a difference, but i didn't find it worth going thru the hassle of upgrading. If low light is primary, then the Panasonic GM1 is the one to be looking at imho
PeterGregg Thanks Peter for suggestion - I had forgotten about the GM 1 - I bought the GX7 around the same time. The dilemma I see with the GM 1 is that the kit lens is slower then RX100M2 and with the lens it is not as pocket able and lens range is only 24-64 vs 28-110 on RX100/M2 - Lumix GX7 has faster lens at F1.4 vs F1.8 but it has a much smaller sensor. I do have a Fuji X20 and love it - it has faster lens then Sony at F2.0-2.8 but sensor smaller and camera body larger and not as pocket able - So RX100M2 still the smallest with best IQ - You did not think the ISO performance was enough to justify an upgrade? I suppose the tilt-able LCD is another good reason that I am thinking off - Sony says 40% better ISO performance - but I like to hear from people who have actually tried it and get their real life input - Your videos are great Peter - keep them coming
***** thanks for info - my understanding is that there is a different sensor - same size but the one in the RX100M2 is back-lit so according to Sony lets in 40% more light - so in theory should be much better in low light or ISO performance - that is the real reason I am interested in the upgrade not so much for the other stuff other than tilt-able LCD - just have not been able to find someone that says yes it is worth it as low light performance is much better - just want to hear from a real person ( not just Sony ) that it is worth getting because of that. Now Olympus have the Stylus 1 - smaller sensor but faster lens and longer zoom and viewfinder - but quite a bit more bulky - but it has a back-lit sensor and has impressive ISO performance for such a smaller sensor - my Sony HX50V with a smaller sensor has better ISO performance than many other cameras in that small sensor class as it has a back-lit sensor - So I am assuming that the RX100m2 is better in low light but just want a confirmation and an estimated percentage - as if it is just 5% then it would not be worth it but 10-20% or more then it would be worth it.
yeah it's cool, you just don't saw it. what about the peaking mode, out of focus and settings changes? WHILE you are shooting? that's cool. but no tap tap and shoot sorry.
Hi Peter, you're a funny guy, indeed, using your camera for secretly taking pictures of women around! :) Now the AEL question is answered, I may put another question to you: How to use a polarizing filter? Do you know of such a filter you stick to the RX100's lens? I appreciate this compact camera, easy to have with you wherever you go, and the RX100 is really great in image quality! Nevertheless I'd wish, it had the kind of handling and operating options, the new Panasonic LX7 has. Thanks!
What about audio quality? Hiss, wind noise? Why does every supposed professional omit the audio part as if audio did not matter at all when making movies?
Subscribe to my channel. I will be making a video in the near future explaining all the aspects of making a successful TH-cam video as i get many questions on this topic.
It isn't too bad, I have one of those still here. If someone wants to borrow a camera i lend them that one :) it has a great stabilization system and the images are very good, and so is the video. it isn't as good as the new ones today, but for a $100, which is about $110 here in the USA, that is a pretty good price. The bigger question is what else can you do with that same money? After you buy it, will you be sorry you didn't buy something else for more money? On the other hand, a young person or a teen would love to have this camera, so it very well does have its positives!

Started followin' few days ago while checkin out Nikon DSLR, i love your explanations & general delightfully funny spins on things. good stuff
I never owned a DSLR and I wanted to buy one but after this camera came out I changed my mind and now I want to buy the Sony RX-100 :)
I like your style Peter.. Looks like a great camera. I'll get one in the sales.
Uncle peter , you are the best , so easy to understand you and you make us smile and laugh , love from Canada

You're indeed a comedian when it comes to reviews :) Nicely done!
Just sold my 5D Mk2 for this Sony! Almost (for my needs) the same quality with quarter cost and weight
In addition to touch-focus and flip out screen, I would certainly want a front-side grip (like on the HV20) for ease of hold and avoid the risk of damaging when it falls.

@@PeterGregg Nokia 808 pureview is very capable camera, came closer to my Sony rx100 mark 1 🤔🤔
when does the iso get noisy enough to ruin the image ?
HI Sir, I am not looking Phone, I looking camera that is fit my pocket using day-to-day use which is best image quality.
Why I put option Nokia 808 and Nokia 1020. Nokia company and Nokia Fans said in the Internet and advertised and reviews said that they are replacing DSLR they have the best image quality.
after checking Nokia 808 and lumia 1020 and Samsung S7 S7 Edge they have the limitations of Camera options and settings to take photographs like RX100 ii, ii, iii and Lumix GX80 and GX85 and LX 100 they have more options in their camera settings. thanks to reply
Did I hear him right, zoom goes upto 100mm? If so how come and is it any good compare to any other camera with that zoom..?
If I remember all the info properly, the Sony RX100 lens is 28-100mm, f/1.8-4.9 Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* lens.
PeterGregg wow thanks man for the reply :)
have you tested the RX100M2 ? is it worth upgrading?? primarily for low light improvements
Yes there is a difference, but i didn't find it worth going thru the hassle of upgrading. If low light is primary, then the Panasonic GM1 is the one to be looking at imho

Your videos are great Peter - keep them coming
Yes MK2 has more features than the original RX-100, but it is very expensive and most of all, not made in Japan.

yeah it's cool, you just don't saw it. what about the peaking mode, out of focus and settings changes? WHILE you are shooting? that's cool. but no tap tap and shoot sorry.
Great review Peter!

to the guy with the stuck lens on this Sony, my rear screen is messing up on mine.
please help me mine is stuck and the lens won't open or close all the way what do i do????
So have you fucked with the wrong twin? Lol.
what
Marques !
yeah go to my channel n look ay the surfing video i did with the canon sx50 its amazing how well it came out with this bad boy
10:55 - D800E I think he said
tested it out against the other little boys.
Hi Peter,
you're a funny guy, indeed, using your camera for secretly taking pictures of women around! :)
Now the AEL question is answered, I may put another question to you: How to use a polarizing filter? Do you know of such a filter you stick to the RX100's lens?
I appreciate this compact camera, easy to have with you wherever you go, and the RX100 is really great in image quality! Nevertheless I'd wish, it had the kind of handling and operating options, the new Panasonic LX7 has.
Thanks!
It does not matter as a professional would use an external source for audio. Not the camera's
i love my rx100 is the best i buy it in new york
Dnot you mean it has a 22.3meg not 20 like you said
What about audio quality? Hiss, wind noise? Why does every supposed professional omit the audio part as if audio did not matter at all when making movies?
Subscribe to my channel. I will be making a video in the near future explaining all the aspects of making a successful TH-cam video as i get many questions on this topic.
guy,u missed another point,this camera is so small and really makes it hard to hold in hand.sony need to build grip for it
How would you compare this to the similarly priced Sony NEX-5T?
He said NEX-7 is a tap screen; it's not touch screen.
Sorry correct 20.9 meg
Good review but you took forever to get to the point..
Hi Peter, would you pay 180 euro today for a new RX100?
It isn't too bad, I have one of those still here. If someone wants to borrow a camera i lend them that one :) it has a great stabilization system and the images are very good, and so is the video. it isn't as good as the new ones today, but for a $100, which is about $110 here in the USA, that is a pretty good price. The bigger question is what else can you do with that same money? After you buy it, will you be sorry you didn't buy something else for more money? On the other hand, a young person or a teen would love to have this camera, so it very well does have its positives!
Thanks Peter for that quick response.
The camera was out of date when he finished review.
In image quality, the RX100 beats the "latest" Canon G9X and ANY of the "latest" tiny sensor gimmicky smartphones that cost 4X.
drax franky I have the rx100 myself and it is a great camera, but when you are given to much poor information you start to loose interest.
We know that he is peter and it is his impression so don't bothor us by putting those lines in front of us each 2mins
if that nikon is ur baby then who is ur son
