  • Here is a quick look at my favorite pocket camera, the Sony RX100Va. It's the camera I always have on me and since it has a EVF it's a blast to shoot. The camera does have its short comings, but overall it is still a great camera after all these years.
    Also, at one point I said EVMS, which is a Medical School here and I guess I had work on my mind when I meant to say EVF lol. Sorry about that.

    You can be the first guy to make a vid on how to get that film look on a Sony camera. There’s literally no videos or blogs on it. We need your information. Is this a film setting?

      Guess u need to shoot raw and use post processing to achieve film look. Can't tell cuz I don't own a rx100 so idk probably no function for film look

    Hey Jason, just wanted to say that I've watched a bunch of camera review videos over the years, and they often don't have very good image samples. Your photos are great. I like your delivery style too.

    Thanks Jason. I found you on Instagram and enjoyed your pictures from your Disney World experience. Picked up your preset pack Thank you - perfect for me as I shoot, Fuji, GFX 50 R, but also still use the original Sony RX 100 that I bought back in 2012, and it still takes great photos now. Looking forward to trying out your presets with the files from those cameras.

    Great synopsis! Stumbled across this video while I'm waiting for mine to come in the mail, 3rd party from KEH! You basically articulated exactly the reasons why I was interested in pulling the trigger on one.
    I've wanted something pocketable with an EVF that I can haul everywhere, everyday for so many years and this fits the bill perfectly. Smartphones are obviously capable, but a viewfinder is so crucial to the imaging and composition process for me.
    Thanks for sharing your thoughts on it! Also love the travel charger! Putting that one on the Christmas list!

    I had the rx100 IV. Took it to Colombia as my only camera and it did such a good job! I sold it to help pay for some upgrades. I miss it now though. It was a great balance of being able to shoot great photos, quick video etc. Hard to beat such a powerful pocket camera!
    Nice video and great shots!

    I am very interested in RX100 III to RX100 VA because they all have the F1.8 24-72mm equivalent lens, because in my experience with handling my father's DSLR during the holiday is that I can't really focus on having fun when lugging the camera and batteries.

    @SteveMillerhuntingforfood 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I charge the battery in camera with the micro USB cable.
    Not sure how long you've had it, but mine developed an issue where it would not turn on/off with the power button. It would power on/off with the EVF (a selectable option) so I could still use the camera.
    I sent it to Precision Camera for repair, $328 (ouch) and they replaced all the electronic boards, plus a cleaning and calibration. Now it's as good as new.
    It's a very capable camera. Battery life is weak though. So I have 4 batteries.

    • @twohourphoto
      @twohourphoto  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yeah, the battery life can be rough with this, especially if you are shooting a lot or doing video.

    Very nice photos.
    I have the RX 100 III, but I'm not a fan of it at all. I prefer my older Olympus XZ-1 for a compact point & shoot. But, my daily carry is a small Micro 4/3 camera - also an Olympus.
    For things like concerts, I use a Panasonic Lumix GX8 and a few different prime lenses (Olympus 45mm f 1.8, and 12mm f 2.0 + Panasonic 20mm f 1.7 and 25mm f 1.7), and I love the results I get from that setup.
    I'd love to get my hands on a Panasonic GM5 for the evf on a very compact camera body with access to tiny interchangeable lenses, but it has become far too expensive for my taste.

    • @twohourphoto
      @twohourphoto  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I have the RX100 VII. It’s similar. When mounted on a tripod, it shoots better video than my iPhone 15 Pro. The iPhone stabilization crushes the Sony though. It takes better selfies than my phone too. That said, I carry it less now and don’t have as much use for it as the iPhone camera has improved so much.

      There’s no real wrong answer here. If you want a zoom lens and evf, get the Sony. However, if you want a bigger sensor and fix prime lens, get the GRIII. Both are pocketable and about the same price.

      Maybe, the newer ones have a longer lens, but aren't as fast lens wise. I think it depends on how far away you are then. If you need the reach, get a new one. If it's darker and you're close, I'd say get this one because it lets in more light.

      V is 5 if you didn’t know. It’s a Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 VA or DSCRX100M5A/B depending on the listing. It’s all the same though, unless you are looking at the older non “a” model. The refreshed “Va” model gains a newer processor and various firmware tweaks.
