Abstract: This is a small improvement on the much-praised RX100. The 20-megapixel sensor matched with the image-stabilised 3.6X Zeiss-branded zoom (30-108mm equivalent) i...
The JPEG image quality is very good and, for those prepared to go the extra mile, the RAW pictures are stunning
The tradeoff of the small, pocketable form is that the various function buttons are tiny, but the lensconcentric adjustment ring compensates
This camera in its Mark 1 version was generally regarded as one of the very best compacts. The lens, with its modest zoom range, is exceptionally fine both mechanically and optically. Features like the very high resolution and tiltable LCD make for a vers...

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 II delivers excellent photos, speedy performance, and a broad feature set in an attractive, compact package
The camera tends to clip bright highlights more than we typically see, and the slippery body lacks a grip. Plus, the lack of a manually triggered macro mode might put off some fans of close-up photography
The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 II's combination of looks, speed, flexibility, and photo quality makes it a great choice for enthusiasts who can afford the price tag....

It's worth re-stating that this is the best compact camera with an integrated zoom lens. You can find better performance with a fixed focal length compact like as the Ricoh GR for around $US800. If you don't mind bulky interchangeable lenses, the Sony NEX...

The biggest bugbear at the moment is the Sony RX100 Mark II's price, which will hopefully come down in due course. As it stands, it seems like a good idea for Sony to continue to market both versions of the camera at the same time, the original Sony RX100...

A great electronic viewfinder that doesn't increase the size of the svelte Sony Cyber-shot RX100 III is one of the camera's highlights. Plus it offers excellent performance, photo and video quality
The camera shuts down when you retract the viewfinder, the autofocus system could be more consistent, and it has poor battery life
The Sony Cyber-shot RX100 III is an overall great camera that delivers significant improvements over the RX100 II, but not everyone will think it's worth the extra cost....
Abstract: The lines between mobile and technology continue to blur and as a mobile site, we often need to look outside the mobile sphere to find the devices that can influence the next generation of mobile technology. The Sony RX-100 Mark II camera is arguably one ...
Superb image quality, great for video and very nice camera to carry around.
The buttons are a bit fiddly and the settings sometimes hard to access. It can be difficult to use and there's little good creative fun available
It's a definite hit for the purist photographer but it won't be the whole family's cup of tea because it's not a lot of fun. Sometimes enthusiasts need a little enthusing too....
