The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX10 III marries an incredible 25x zoom lens to a large image sensor and delivers excellent images, 4K video, and fast autofocus. But it carries a premium price tag.

Sony's RX10 III is the latest in its line of high-end premium bridge cameras. It comes less than 12 months after the RX10 II was announced, but the company has said that both of the cameras will exist at the same time, offering two different options to...
There's a lot to like about the Sony RX10 III - but to be fair, for such an asking price, so there should be. That said, to get a body and a lens set which covers the focal range here, would cost you a lot more than the £1,250 asking price that the...

Superb quality 25x zoom lens ; Lens rings for aperture, zoom and focus ; 4K UHD and HFR movie modes ; Good Wifi and downloadable apps ; Hot shoe takes wide variety of add-ons ; Weather-sealed metal construction
Screen isn't touch-sensitive ; Screen isn't fully articulated ; No built-in ND filter ; Exposure compensation dial easily moved ; Relatively heavy

The Sony RX10 III is capable of 14fps burst shooting and high-res 4K video capture. But really, it's headline feature is the insane 24-600mm zoom lens. You need to see these pictures to understand.

The RX10 III is the third iteration of Sony's unusual premium bridge camera. It was announced not too long after the Sony RX10 II, but rather than being a replacement, it's said that both models will exist at the same time, giving a couple of choices...

The RX10 III is a hugely capable camera in almost every respect. It's expensive, but it's virtually in a league of its own
Excellent and fast 24-600mm lens ; Superb stills and video quality ; High quality EVF and tilting LCD screen ; Excellent high ISO performance
Pricey compared to the competition ; Poor autofocus at longer focal lengths ; Relatively large and heavy
The RX10 III's 24-600mm Zeiss lens, coupled with Sony's excellent 1-inch sensor, deliver class-leading image quality. Its 4K and HD video functionality is also superb. It's a large, relatively heavy and pricey camera though, and is let down by its...
