- This is my review of the Sony RX100 MIII. I purchased this camera for streaming, primarily, and it has been absolutely amazing for just that. It also makes for an amazing little 1080p cinema camera. This is the best budget camera for filming and streaming. Enjoy!

This video showed me it's possible to use a Sony RX100 III, thanks! I found out I didn't need a dummy battery. I just removed the internal battery and powered it via the micro-USB cable and it stays on for hours.
Hi! May I ask if you use AC-UD10 power supply unit or you just used the charger that comes with it?
thanks for this man! looking for a review of rx100 miii that is up to date. i dont want to make my decision on reviews that were made years ago.
Could you post the settings your using while you have this as a webcam? I was using it as my main but I couldn't get it looking as good as my 920 so I relegated it to second cam status.
But that camera has not a place for mic can you guys give the solution about that
Is this camera good in 2023 for use with elgato and obs for streaming on txitch for dj?
Helpful, thanks.
what cables do you need for supplying the power to the camera while streaming?
Ratke Gaming go on amazon and search for dummy batteries compatible for this type of camera.
dont you think the ring light you are using is too dim. 7:15 your stream looks very dim
I have the same camera, what microphone do you recommend to buy? Please let me know
What capture card do you use bro?
I got a rx100 mark IV, but its resolution for streaming with oms is much lower than video recording, it was like 480p on TH-cam streaming. Can you share your camera setting for streaming?
are you using a capture card with a hmdi cable or just a micro usb cable?.. I noticed that using just the micro usb cable limits the resolution to like 584 or something because usb 2.0 limits the bandwidth. I bought a cheap capture card for 20$ and using the micro or mini hdmi cable (can't remember which one I bought) and got the 1080p 30 or 720 fps ...
Buy a $20 HDMI capture card and you will get HD quality steams with your RX 100IV.
Hi, as it has no mic port how do you connect this with an external mic lets say the rode wireless?
You need stand alone voice recorder and then mix it on editor
A clapper may needed to cue in
Hi Tank you for the video! Hey I was wondering if you would help me with a question? I am using the Sony rx100 iii as device in OBS for webcasts. The issue is while I am using the HDMI output I cannont get the USB to charge the camera. So I am limited by battery life. How did you get the camera USB power while using the HDMI port?
Thanks for stopping by! I used what is called a "dummy battery". This is a fake battery that connects to a wall socket into your camera. Your camera thinks it's a normal battery, but essentially, it's just a battery that never runs out. They're fairly cheap, at around $20.
@@TechSummitTV Thank you for that info!! Much appreciated!
I bought a dummy batter that has a usb plug .. I plugged mine right into my pc and it works great!
Can you charge the camera while streaming? If you want to go beyond the internal battery's capacity?
You would want to use a dummy battery. Essentially, it's a battery that has a cable attached to it that plugs both into the camera and a wall socket. That's how it always stays powered.
@@TechSummitTV Yes, thanks!
how do you get clean hdmi on this camera for streaming ???
I just plug it into a capture card that also goes into my PC.
Can I know what camera are you using for this video?
I'm using the Sony a6400 to film this video.
There is NO touch function on the screen.
Has Clean HDMI out ???
Yup!
No...
I’m thinking about a used Sony a5000 for the wife for the upcoming vacation.
That's another great camera. If you can, I'd spring for the a5100, though. Either way, the a5000 is awesome for the price.
Tech Summit I would go for the a5100 but the price is still to high even used.
Get rid of the damn music. I am not going to struggle for 11 minutes trying to understand your voice with that unnecessary distraction.
I just found out about the RX100 mark 1, I was considering the Sony a5100 for streaming but I like the smaller size of the rx100.
I liked this video I think you make great and gorgeous content, but I am always surprised at videos like this. (Everyone seems to do it). This video is 11min of gorgeous footage that you made with a different (more expensive camera) and zero seconds of comparison between this gorgeous footage and the camera you are talking about. Can we see your exact setup A/B style just swapping the RX 100 camera in? Also your gear list seems to not mention that ring style key light shown (or which camera you used to make this video), can you clarify Thanks!
Hi, Can please tell me how to connect this camera to the computer? what kind of cable and software do you use? I have been looking around the internet but could not find sufficient information. Thank you in advance.
Hi! The simplest explanation would just be that you need a capture card like the Elgato HD60S+ or the Elgato Camlink and a Micro HDMI to HDMI cable to connect from your camera, to the capture card, back to the computer. You would need to download Elgato's software from there.
@@TechSummitTV Hi! I bought this camera 4 or 5 years ago and figured it would look better than my laptop cam for zoom conference. Would love to see a step-by-step guide on connecting the camera to the laptop, and whether an additional mic can added. With so many virtual meetings and online classes these days, i'm sure people are finding ways to use whatever is in hand to look presentable. Good video btw. Thanks!
@@melm1292 hi! any answers form your question last month? willing to learn also
@@Popesepe Hi. Havent found a step-by-step guide yet. The explanation given before is pretty straight-forward i guess, but buying an Elgato capture card would be like buying a new HD webcam for me. Did buy a cheaper capture card but havent tested it out yet... not even sure if it has it's own software. Lol. Let me know if you've found a good guide John. Good luck to us.
@@melm1292 Salamat!
How to connect the camera to the computer
you can buy a cheap capture card for 20$ and a mini hdmi or micro i can't remember...you can kinda get 1080 30fps or 720 60 fps .. 1080 60fps kinda skips frames ... it gets better with a better usb 3.0 capture card
Get the elgato cam link and connect the USB end to ur computer and the other end to your camera with the mini hdmi cable
@@chaneth1490 so u need the el gato just to use it as a webcam? and do u need to download the 4k capture utility?
@@jdmallday91 according to elgatos webpage, their 4k capture software is not compatible with rx100iii
Did you notice any lag within the video & audio feed? Any overheating issues?
Thanks for the video bro, could you tell me how to connect the camera to the computer? Greeting from Chile.
You need a capture card in order to connect this camera to your computer. I use the Elgato HD60S capture card and I just connected the camera to it using an HDMI to Micro HDMI cable.
@@TechSummitTV thank you. i thought it wont work as a streaming camera. mine was sitting collecting dust. now i can use it again :)
How do you turn on the clean Hdmi or does it auto do clean Hdmi once you plug it in ? Can’t find anything in setting to Change to clean Hdmi ?
@@jamesbailey3913 did you ever figure this out?
Hi! Nice video! I'm trying to get my RX100 III to stream with a capture card but I get the shot information around the frame, making my image smaller. Any tips on how to eliminate this? Thanks!
did you figure this out?
Dennis Mitchell yes,. To into settings, loom for HDMI settings and turn off HDMI display. What happens is your camera screen can show all the info but the output will be clean. I applied the same to my GoPro Hero3+ and now it can also be used as a webcam
@@clipsTL OMG I am so glad I found this comment!! Was searching for this answer and wasn't finding anything. Worked for me. Thanks for the update!
Which capture card are you using? 😊
@@applesaft I used a china-brand capture stick that does USB to HDMI; 1080P
Hi. We have the new IDOLCAM VlogStar V2 shotgun/Lavalier microphone in one, small size, perfect for vlogging with RX100, can we send you one to you to play with?
I was wondering if I could use my Sony RX-100 Mark II as a webcam on my pc ?
Does the autofocus is good?
yes
Any good reason why music playing in the background? good grief
Hi dude i have one but the quality of vídeos are like bad looks Blur or like bad quality even bad than a phone camera. Cna u help me?
Hi very descriptive video and I have the same camera, question on the dummy battery, do you power from the mains with this in and if so how? Cheers
how do you deal with the auto off/record limit when streaming?
You don't record when you're streaming. You just leave it on. And with the dummy battery (a fake battery yhayh connects from your camera to a wall outlet) the camera thinks it's charging all of the time so it never shuts off.
@@TechSummitTV Hello Friend. Does this camera get hot during streaming or does it happen to turn off for that reason? (Ps. I'm from Brazil and I love your channel) Abs.
@@TechSummitTV I bought a dummy batter for it and I'm able to plug it directly to my pc for power
What do you mean by the Mark4 doesn't have a clean HDMI output?
Is there a difference between charging with USB and the Dummy Battery?
Isnt a logitech 920 better as a webcam?
What’s better, this out the vz1?
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
hey how are you? love the review! Do I necessarily have to buy the elgato hd60s capture card or would elgato cam link work just fine(not 4k). Since there is slight price difference between the 2?(like $50) I'd much prefer the latter if they work the same
Thank you! And yes, it's compatible with the Cam Link too.
@@TechSummitTV actually nevermind! Everyone's price gouging cam link! lol I found used hd60s for $60. What power supply/battery do you recommend for rx100m3? Also does it overheat for long periods of streaming?
Good stuff man! I'm a content creator as well but I only use C920. What dummy battery do you recommend for Sony RX100 M3?
Thank you! I will leave a link in the description soon, actually, because I remember it being pretty tough to find.
@@TechSummitTV Please do brother since I'm currently trying to shop for one right now. Thanks!
@@jayxslayz1812 Hey, I found the dummy battery on Amazon and I placed a link in the description. But it says that it's no longer available. However, I left it there so that you have to option to at least keep an eye on it for now. Good luck!
@@TechSummitTV Amazing stuff brother. Thanks! Where do you connect the HDMI part? To your PC or just any charger would work?
@@jayxslayz1812 you would plug the HDMI port to a capture card like the Elgato Camlink or Elgato HD60S.
hey bro how can i connect this camera like webcam
Yes!
@@TechSummitTV yea but how i tryed many options can u make a video how to connect this cam like webcam ?
:DD
coould you do a set up for streaming video ??
Oh, do you mean a desktop set up for streaming?
Tech Summit yeah I have a capture card I can use but wondered what settings for the clean Hdmi exactly you use ? Do you use dummy battery etc, if you have time a video from what settings on the camera to plugging in and powering it would be great. Take a look on TH-cam there isn’t one for this model so would do really well I’m sure
Tech Summit one thing I struggle with is I find my way I need to turn auto focus off or I get the little lines on the screen. Things like that on a set up how you do would be cool
3:02 when you close EVF, press and hold the power button until EVF clicks, and it won't shut down.
Is the RX100 MIII better than the RX100 VII?
No. The MVII is way better.
