Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 VII Digital Camera

First off, it's not a low light champion though passable. Had a RX 100 M3 and this is much better in overall color science , picture sharpness and response. Even at high ISOs around 3200, you can get an usable picture , the grain and noise is well controlled. The lens is sharp throughout the zoom, but especially at 4.0 to 5.0. Battery life is ok , can last a day if you do not shoot 4k videos. And do get a high speed card , the writing speed improves. Impressive dynamic range and color tonality, not very good in dark conditions where an iphone or Google pixel can take better pictures with computational photography. Itching to take it while traveling. Cannot lug around my 7D after buying this. Returned the order for the Canon G5 X Mk 2 , I feel this is an overall better camera. Do not use it as as iphone for shooting, it's far more talented !

Overall its a good product. would by again. The reason for 4 stars is battery live is ok. The battier gets the job done but should have an extra one close by.

Ok, so to keep it simple. As I stated, its worth the price of $1200. Why? Because it is a 20MP pocket camera, that has 4k recording with audio input. As well as an awesome focal range. Starting at a wide 24mm to a 200mm telephoto range. Whats not to like? Its awesome. Don't expect bird photography though. Now the lengthy part... I'm coming from owning a fair share of cameras as a professional photographer. As of this review, I have a Sony A7m2 with the kit lens, but also the 70200g f4 lens, plus other various lenses. The Sony a6000 + nex 5n, RX100m3, Fuji X100F. Further down in the review III will be the RX100m3 and VII is the one the review is for.Why does this become part of the review? Its because I can put this camera against some stiff competition before writing this review. As far as usefulness, I think this camera is 10/10. I used to carry the RX100m3 along everywhere with me because of its size. I kept it, for the fact that it has f1.8 at its widest vs 2.8 of the RX100m7. Now I carry the III and the VII everywhere. However, the one I have used primarily these past few weeks have been the VII because of its reach. I know 90% of my photos never exceed the range of 70mm. Found this out a 3rd time because of a 2 month trip to Viet Nam and Japan where I took only the III and X100F. During that trip I only encountered maybe 5 times max where I wish I had 200mm reach. Well, now I have that, and more. I'll upload photos later after this review. Build quality: 10/10 Is basically the same as you can expect from Sony and its previous RX models. Same high quality. Image quality: 8/10 I love it. Obviously it won't compete with the bigger cameras I have, but in good lighting (always a key) the image quality is amazing. The range this camera provides helps in making better bokeh portraits compared to the 24-70mm range of previous models (not including the VI). *my opinion you may not agree Video: N/A Honestly, not much a video person. Having an option to add a mic really pushed me to buying this camera. That was the selling point to me. Otherwise I wouldn't have bought this since I didn't buy the VI either. Where does this camera fit in? As expected, I can see this camera fit perfectly in my travel kit. Where 90% of the time I would use it while traveling, only pulling out the III when I go walking around at night or poorly lit conditions. If you know the limitations of this camera it will not let you down. Just, as explained earlier, it isn't going to be good for wildlife, but as a portraits and everyday camera. I think it nails it. What I wish: Weather Sealing! C'mon Sony, you pulled through with the mic input. I want to use these cameras in raining conditions. I'm a firm believer of what these tiny guys can do.

This little camera from Sony is an awesome imaging device. Though it is sold as a point-and-shoot camera, it has full manual controls over settings. Some interesting facts about this camera are - 1. It can shoot even in RAW-only mode. 2. Impressive colour reproduction and dynamic range, particularly if one considers its small sensor size. 3. Auto-focus system is very quick and accurate . 4. Very high burst mode suitable for BIF or sports photography. 5. Very handy zoom range for shooting any kind of photography, except wildlife. There are some cons as well. They are 1. High ISO performance is not so good. 2. Menu navigation for changing settings sometimes can become cumbersome. 3. Buttons are too small to find out quickly, though its not a deal breaker. 4. Price is a little high. Anything around 60K would have been appropriate. Overall, this pocket camera is good for someone who is starting photography and who travels a lot.

This camera has had so many online reviews so I thought I would add to them. I have to say, this camera delivers on all of the positive reviews I have read so far. Is it perfect, no, but for someone looking for a great travel option or looking to improve their image quality beyond their phone, this camera does it in spades! I won't go into all the things I love about the camera, image quality, focal length, size, weight are outstanding, however I will share 2 items I hate :-). The batteries suck, but there are a number of off brand batteries out there that work fine and are reasonably priced. They won't last the whole day so make sure you have a couple on standby. The second, is the location of the movie button. Honestly I would like to meet the fellow who thought this was a good idea. The beauty with this camera is the ability to use it with one hand but if you reposition your thumb to hold it firmer, you will press the video button by mistake and start recording, it drives me nuts! Beyond that, the rest of the camera is fantastic and highly recommend it, whether you are new to photography or a seasoned vet, it's a terrific option.

This little pocket rocket is a fabulous camera. The autofocus is world leading - it is difficult to get an out of focus shot. Such a big zoom in a tiny camera - it's perfect for travel photography. I am very happy.
