I bought this camera for a 4K video camera and the possibility of a single travel camera. I also have the Panasonic GH4 and Canon 5D MK2, the issues I have had with removable lens DSLR cameras are sensor spots, I do clean my camera sensors and getting sensor spots on photographs is no big thing, an...

Photography is my hobby, I recently downsized from a full frame SLR as it was too heavy and awkward to carry. The Sony RX10ii is not my first bridge camera but will be my last. I was hoping for better quality for ￡1000+.

Superb Quality For Type

Bad Battery Life; Complicated Controls; Lens Knock; Not Good In Low Light

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX10 II ($1,299.99) is an update to one of our favorite premium superzoom cameras , the RX10 . Like its predecessor, it sports a 20-megapixel 1-inch image sensor and a fixed 24-200mm f/2.8 zoom lens.

Sharp f/2.8 zoom lens; 1-inch image sensor; Very fast autofocus; 12.5fps burst shooting; Tilting rear display; Excellent EVF; Solid control layout; Wi-Fi and NFC; High-def slow-motion mode; 4K recording

Autofocus inconsistent in HFR mode; Shorter zoom range than others in this class; External battery charger not included; Pricey

What can I say, this camera is a video workhorse! 100mbps 4k(uhd), 1080p 120/60/30, and slow motion 240/480/960! I regulary use RED cameras, and I have to say I am VERY impressed and please with the video quality that comes out of this camera.

The Sony RX10 II is a high-end bridge camera that uses a larger than normal 1-inch sensor to achieve superior image quality. The sensor itself is an upgrade over that in the original RX10, as despite being the same physical size and 20.2MP resolution, its new Exmor RS design features a stacked...

It's a decent camera I only use it for video It was cheap it has Slog and built in ND filters records at broadcast rates which makes it even more useful if you can't afford a real video system then this is a good alternative.

travel main use at this time
good flexibility
love ability to capture stills during video
hate not being able to read card outside of body

Easy to Use; Fast Shutter Speed; Good Battery Life; Large Clear LCD; Take Pic During Video

Auto Focus Slow At Times; Bulky; Full On To View Images; Hood Hard To Use; No Auto Pop Up Flash

Enjoyable camera to use that rewards with lovely images. Love the 2.8 aperture throughout. Only two grips - it's very slow to turn on, and connecting to a smartphone isn't easy or intuitive.

Nice,but charging problem

Sony's Cyber-shot DSC-RX10 might have the shortest focal range - 24-200mm - in this shoot-out, but it uses a much bigger 1-inch image sensor compared with the 1/1.7-inch image sensors used by its peers.As a result, the RX10 is as heavy and bulky as a DSLR camera, due to the big sensor and huge...
