Sony RX100 III review: a fantastic point-and-shoot, but it'll cost you

 

At $800, Sony's RX100 III is averyexpensive point-and-shoot, but it's an excellent buy if you have the cash to spare.

Excellent image and video quality ; Integrated pop-up EVF ; Dedicated camera controls ; Good battery life ; New XAVC S codec for improved 1080p video

No touchscreen ; Limited WiFi control ; Expensive

When Sony launched its first RX100 back in 2012, we were very impressed. The camera offered tremendous functionality in a pocketable package. Then, when the RX100 II came around last year, Sony added WiFi along with a full-size hot shoe (which can...

Review: Sony Cyber-shot RX100 III

 

Sony latest version of the RX100 takes one of the best pocket cameras in the world and makes it even better.

Pound for pound, the best pocket camera available now. Outstanding photo and video quality for its size. The ultimate blend of features for any level of photographer. The only pocket camera with an electronic eye-level viewfinder

Costs as much as a DSLR. Tighter zoom range stops short of ultimate portrait territory. A step back in battery life as compared to previous models. Needs a certain storage card to use its best video mode

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 III Review

 

Few compact cameras have garnered as much attention as the Sony Cyber-shot RX100 and RX100 II. Sony had managed to squeeze a much bigger sensor into some cameras only a little larger than the Canon S-series enthusiast compacts. And, in common with the...

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 III Review

The new Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 III is the best compact camera that we've ever reviewed, period. We were impressed by last year's Mark 2 model, but this third iteration takes several big steps forwards, most notably thanks to the inclusion of a...

Sony RX100 III Review

 

It was clear from its heritage that the Sony RX100 III would be an exciting camera, given that both its predecessors earned our Pocket Camera of the Year award, two years running. But that level of success also meant some mighty big shoes to fill.

Pocket-friendly design; Popup electronic viewfinder; Bright lens across the zoom range; Great performance with very fast autofocus; Very high resolution gives lots of detail in good light; High ISO noise levels much better than most pocket camera...

Feels a little unbalanced without an accessory grip; Not as much telephoto reach as its siblings; Noise processing is heavier-handed than in earlier models; Quite pricey for a fixed-lens camera
