This new compact has been garnering a lot of attention from enthusiasts because of it being well-specced. But how does it perform in real life on-the-street shooting? Watch the video to find out...

    I am watching this video 10 years to the day and considering purchasing a pristine RX100 for approx. 130USD. I like old gear that works and this little camera does.

    I have owned several Compact cameras over the years.
    of which I must then say, that in 2012, the compact cameras began to reach such a good level of quality that even if you buy one that are a couple of year old( or in this case 9 year), you still get a very good quality camera.
    such as Rx 100.

    Wish people would stop rattling on about his bloody accent, Kai was born in the UK (Norwich, Norfolk to be precise) to HK parents, not exactly rocket science is it but then it does explain the level of intelligence of some TH-camrs out there.

      In most places it's generally OK if they're in a public place, though it is considered polite to ask. It depends where you are really. Hong Kong is very much a photo friendly place as are many big tourist locations.

    • @snooze3100
      @snooze3100 10 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Whilst in a public place, you can photograph anyone or anything, without their permission. Though, if they ask to not be photographed, you must respect them, and not include them in the photographs. That's how it works in Finland atleast. I suppose it wouldn't be much different in other countries.

    I was looking to downsize my DSLR kit which had become a travel burden and cumbersome to shoot on the streets. I wanted a large 1 inch chip that would fit in my pocket with decent glass lenses. The RX100 Mark2 answered this need.I must say the whole world of camera manufacturers need to learn more lessons about user interface from smartphone technologies. The directness and speed of shooting and uploading images to the cloud or other devices is still terribly lacking with these cameras and all DSLR for that matter as well. But its getting better so lets celebrate and then continue to innovate.

      When I see his videos the first time I though the same but than I imagine he spent a lot of time in UK and now he's back at home.
      BTW why you guys always insult on youtube comments?

    Great review Kai..
    I've had the camera a week, it needs a viewfinder more than a tilt screen...
    I'm trying to rig an eyepiece. it's hard to see this in very bright settings. Granted, i got it for it's low light capabilities. Aside from some quirks, this has been a joy to play with. My needs are specific, and fitting it in my pocket was a major reason to get this. I get the bokeh shots without trying. i never know how good this thing can be. it just pulls out some beautiful shots.

  • @pe1pq
    @pe1pq 12 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    As always a great review, good job Kai. My only issue is that, this camera should have a tilt screen with touch focus and shutter. I have been in the market for just such a compact, and I was hoping that this was it. At twenty megapixel and a zeiss lens, wow. I can only guess that in one or two years Sony will regurgitate this same camera with tilt screen and touch focus with touch capture, or one or the other. thank you Digital Rev.
