This is a great overview with fantastic production value. Thanks for not only telling, but showing the ins and outs of this camera. I've been researching for weeks, and this was very helpful.
Tony & Chelsea Northrup Why you guys stop reviewing DJI and would you review GoPro 7? Again In the days we are living, please someone let Sony knows we need 4K 60 fps, stabilized, and touchscreen, well done for the 1” and the articulated screen( but only in for 1’? Is that a joke?) . Sony = Tonto!
OMG WOWOWOW Ladies & Gentlemen This is "THE'" Best review of Sony rxo you wont gona find the excellent review in excellent quality anywhere else and as usual this comment is before watching the video now let me grab my snacks sit back and enjoy the video
I love your style in your presentation. You were able to highlight all the sophisticated features of the camera while remaining humble enough to not loose the layman like myself.
My first gut reaction is this is *almost* the perfect vlogging camera for action sports content creators. It's much more robust, waterproof, and shock resistant than a RX100 and much smaller. I say almost because they really need to get AF-C on this and 4k exporting with IS. Though, if Sony was reading my comment, I'd ask them to take the RX0 body and shove the x3000 internals into it as a prosumer version of an action camera; the RX0 Sport. Wide angle RX0 that has the smaller sensor but OIS + the fancy digital IS if needed. The super long form factor of the X3000 made it annoying for POV because it was always in the way.
Reality is that it suffers serious rolling shutter and when using stabilization it zooms in! Bad AF as well? Trust me a Gopro or even a smartphone could do just as good a job if not better. this camera is not meant to be moving around.
@@robert7622 with the 1" sensor, for sure. What I'm saying is they should take the body and processor of the RX0 and put the optics and sensor of the X3000 in it. Smaller sensor would resolve the rolling shutter, and OIS would take care of most shaking. Having an extra digital IS option would be great for smoothing out the footage a bit more if you'd like. That setup would even have no need for AF, less to process so could run cooler or have more shooting options. This is why I feel they should have two versions. The RX0, and then a RX0 "sport" with different sensor optics made for different use cases.
Once again, a great review of the product. You've got the best reviews of products. I wish I could afford the things you review... Keep up the excellent work.
@@ethaningoa7461 but worse stabiliation... and the one inch sensor is really mostly obvios in low light, and most people dont use action cams in lowlight :)
Very thorough (yet compact) review, excellent production and editing. I have to say the thing i appreciate most is the "grading". There seems to be an obsession with the "log" look among many video folks, with the delusion that muddy and flat somehow looks like "film". I have no idea where that came from. I did not shoot much movie film in my 30 years or so as a photographer before the dawning of the digital age, but I shot a ton of still film and, as said, I am baffled. You do not seem to have fallen into that trap.
What are you talking about? Which trap? There is no trap. Either you didn’t understand the reason to shoot flat, or your sources are rubbish. People who know what they are doing do not shoot flat “because” it looks cinematic, but rather “in order to” make it look cinematic. Which is entirely different. Shooting flat means that you don’t get the processing done in-camera but rather in post (where the “cinematic” look is achieved). It is the analogous equivalent of shooting in raw for low-end video cameras.
Yeah I'm not sure this is $240 better than the FDR3000, I guess you have to ask yourself how bad you need a flip screen because it pretty much does everything this RX0 II does.
Nice review! I appreciate someone who knows what they are talking about, knows how to put together a good video, AND has a sense of humor. What more could you ask for?
Me: I can't wait to go to bed now but let me check TH-cam first reaaaalllll quick iPhonedo: *uploads* Me: *screams internally* I JUST WANT TO SLEEP! Granted it's my fault I'm 3 hours late BUT STILL
Fun fact: Sets whether to turn off the monitor automatically after approximately one minute without any operations by the user when recording movies. MENU → (Camera Settings2) → [Mon. Off dur REC] → desired setting.
Super review as always :).. Nice wheels.. (litterally).. I have that model for my "3" - they eagerly await replacing the wintertyres when the sub zero temp drops ceases... can't wait
I really have to say..........Sony seems to be actually listening to their customers these days, and actually taking note of what people are complaining about with previous products. I was thinking about getting an action camera and this could be perfect for what I want it for :)
The difference that you put to those amazing reviews is absolutely coming from your industrial design background! Awesome edit, and thanks for the honest opinions. Many greetings to beautiful sunny California!
This is a really tempting device - the price though, is a little hard to stomach, and I'm not convinced by the electronic stabilization features. Having to export the footage to a phone app in order to stabilize it seems like a hassle, and from what I see here it doesn't look as good as what the GoPro 7 can do in camera.
HEY HEY NOW Excellent review I been waiting for a new version of the RXO, I might use this as my third camera...built in 4k30 plus electronic stability great update!!!
I would like to take one Mountain Biking and see how it does with all the vibrations we get. Also skiing, No one they give cameras to ever tests them in tough conditions!
Sony was so CLOSE of getting pe perfect action camera , but i will still not buy this because : 1. lack of af-c is just STUPID (i saw that all reviewers have more or less out off focus videos with this camera), 2. image stabilization could be way better , 3. lack of touch screen (even my old Yi 4k has touch screen) , 4. small annoying things like the power off screen without the possibility of setting the power off time. Great review iPhonedo !
So, here's the one question I have... Is the stabilization worth its salt if you don't run your workflow through the App? Is there any other way to apply the gyro / accelerometer data to the video? I honestly don't mind the 1080 output, but adding the mobile device app into workflow to get reasonable stabilization may just be a deal breaker. Inquiring minds want to know...
I am torn between this camera and now the DJI Action camera. Since you reviewed both cameras then perhaps you can post your comments about the pros and cons of one over the other.
I have v1.0. I use it for stills, as an all-weather travel cam. Quality is surprisingly good. My only real beef is the form factor; it would better wider and thinner.
awesome little camera, I love'd the look of the first one it was just lacking too many features, the only disappointing thing with this one is the lack of AF-c. does anyone know if you can charge it up via usb into the device?
Seems they have listened to you: 1) There is an option on the new firmware to not shut down the screen after 1:10m, its called Mon. Off dur REC (movie) MENU → (Camera Settings2) → [Mon. Off dur REC] → desired setting. 2) Also they have a new option AF-S during movie recording press.sony.se/pressreleases/sony-releases-firmware-update-for-rx0-ii-adding-auto-focus-video-functionality-and-compatibility-with-rmt-p1bt-2951247 3) You can also adjust the brightness of the monitor by "fooling" the camera. Set it to 1080p, adjust brightness to level you want, set it back to 4k or 1080p/120 and put in a memory bank. Thats how I have mine setup.
Great video super informative! I just bought the Sony rx100v and it’s been amazing and compact for photo and videos. I was so happy with it...but THIS...omg Sony take my money! 💸💸💸 🤩
I think go pro 7 is much more practical and useful except for sensor. Even Sony fdr x 3000 seems to me more useful than this for its optical stabilization..
Best detailed review so far and I just watched 3 others that barely knew how to work it. Thanks for the good content
This is a great overview with fantastic production value. Thanks for not only telling, but showing the ins and outs of this camera. I've been researching for weeks, and this was very helpful.
Your intro could be an ad for the camera. Amazing ✌️❤️
Extremely underrated TH-camr.
The music on this one... Original and rocking base!
goforkranthi79 underrated? What? Where? How? He is the only one 😉!
Awesome review! Love the stop motion!

That's how you do a review, with all the important bits clearly explained!
"A tasteless horrible social media platform" That was funny.
Oh my goodness I’m deleting my video and just telling everyone to watch yours 😂
We like yours too tho!😊😊
Great device just price little too high, wish it was $499 not $700.
Wow. Sony is actually charging more than GoPRo for an action-like camera?
@@MrEye4get 1 inch sensor.. more light is let in and thus better quality..
@@ethaningoa7461 My bad, not an action-like camera; more an action vlogger-type camera.
@@ethaningoa7461 but worse stabiliation... and the one inch sensor is really mostly obvios in low light, and most people dont use action cams in lowlight :)
@@froznfire9531 use the companion app for gimbal like stabilization

That intro stop motion was sick af! Nice work man!
Your Steady Shot explination and demonstration is excellent. Feature I needed for our air to air productions. Thank you and well done!
The amount of effort you put in making a video is unbeatable.
The intros are😍😍😍
iPhonedo for TH-cam Rewind 2019 !!!
Nah, he's better than that trash.
Camera looks fantastic, almost as good as your production values, keep up the amazing work
I look forward to your videos above all the other channels I subscribe to! -
Sesiydi görünüsüydü bu işi bu kadar kaliteli yapan görmedim abi sen efsanesin ya.
You are the best !!!
this is a no brainer for me. I almost got the mark one version. thanks for the great review! btw
Did you get it?
Of all the reviews online today you’re the only one I would watch and trust. Great video as always
bu görüntü kalitesiyle bu ışıklandırmayla sykik bile kaliteli durur ben daha kaliteli video çeken bir kanal daha görmedim.Seviliyorsun Faruk abi...
hope they will make a new version of this
Your reviews are always the most enjoyable and informative I ever find on TH-cam! Great job!
Great camera but not for 700. I guess I’ll be keeping my FDR3000 for a while longer

Hey Iphonedo! Now I'm glad I've been too broke to buy the RXO mark 1 version!
When I need a review, this is the channel I go to.
Mate, your videos are some of the best out there
GoPro Hero 7 Black for my money. Thank you for another excellent review.
Dude, your intros are the best!!
Classic content. This is why we love you.
This little camera is sick
This guy has the best reviews! Actually all of his videos are awesome :)
Me: I can't wait to go to bed now but let me check TH-cam first reaaaalllll quick

Me: *screams internally* I JUST WANT TO SLEEP!
Granted it's my fault I'm 3 hours late BUT STILL
Man you’re production skills is killing everyone on TH-cam right now!
good to see you back making videos amigo! nice shot of the observatory in the hollywood hills. takes me back to when i used to live in venice CA :)
Wow, the dynamic range on that thing looks pretty good. The outside looks great while your driving down the road.
Looks like a really awesome little action camera
your intros are always impressive to me.
I just love your reviews man. This camera is amazing!
Fun fact:
Sets whether to turn off the monitor automatically after approximately one minute without any operations by the user when recording movies.
MENU → (Camera Settings2) → [Mon. Off dur REC] → desired setting.
Jason's Chronicles thanks. Considering this camera and not being able to disable auto shutdown would have been a deal breaker.
the best camera reviewer on planet Earth..
Great video man... very thorough review and very helpful.
Great review, very cinematic.
The video quality of the intro is out of this world! 🤯
Super review as always :).. Nice wheels.. (litterally).. I have that model for my "3" - they eagerly await replacing the wintertyres when the sub zero temp drops ceases... can't wait
I have been waiting for that :)
Thank You: This was interesting. I watched every second of the video.
Would you still consider buy this camera? I would love to put it on my FPV drone.
Great review and you're always entertaining. This is a great camera, with incredible features...
I really have to say..........Sony seems to be actually listening to their customers these days, and actually taking note of what people are complaining about with previous products.
I was thinking about getting an action camera and this could be perfect for what I want it for :)
Absolutely adore your presentation man 😍
Nicely done, oke of the ebst review of the RX0 ever.
OMG the opening line cracks me up so bad.
Dude!!! I love your reviews! This would be a great b camera. Totally want it now!
best tech channel
Consistently awesome reviews. Love it.

When you don’t care about the products and only here for his enjoyable content.
Great review..... was looking for this...

The intro is amazing! Great content!
What camera did you shoot the intro with? The bokeh is niiiiiiiice.
I am interested in the lens used. The flare indicates that @iphonendo used some Anamorphic lens. I bet on the 50mm Sirui anamorphic lens.
I am torn between this camera and now the DJI Action camera. Since you reviewed both cameras then perhaps you can post your comments about the pros and cons of one over the other.
im interested in the same comparison too! you can find the rx0 II for 640 euros and the osmo action for 380 euros....
Nice it has a microphone jack unlike my RX100V !
Ilk kez bu kanala denk geldim ve daha ikinci cümlede Türk aksanı ya bu dedim. Videonun sonundaki "hoşçakalın" konuyu kapattı:-)
Will probably buy one or two of this for my wedding shoots.
Great review and the camera is very impressive.

Great review brother!!!
if they could fix the overheating and monitor turning off, these would make some killer live streaming cameras
It looks amazing
Why don’t you have a million + subscribers yet 😱 your content is always top notch! 💁🏻♂️
I think go pro 7 is much more practical and useful except for sensor. Even Sony fdr x 3000 seems to me more useful than this for its optical stabilization..
Nice review!
Great review 😍 sounds like a next purchase!
Why is Gru from 'Despicable Me' doing reviews?
Should I go for this or the Rx100 v used for 550 or 600? I'm looking to do car reviews hooked to the window.
