Got this camera because most music venues don't allow removable lenses. If your pretty close to whatever your taking pictures of it actually takes really beautiful pictures I love it.

Sony's pocket rocket is a compact with almost no compromises

Excellent image quality; 4K videos; Brilliantly fun HFR mode; Pocket-sized

Prohibitive price; Limited zoom range

The camera has been awesome so far! We were looking for something they was going to be a siginifjcant upgrade from our iPhones , but didn't require a full camera bag, multiple lenses, and a lot of in depth expertise. This so far has hit everything.

I bought this camera to fit in my pocket for everyday use instead of carrying around my big pro camera. In particular I wanted to use the raw format to shoot a concert that I attended recently.

The main reason for buying this camera is its absolutely excellent picture quality - the sharpness, the colours, the contrast are very impressive. It's other best features: - wide maximum aperture lens for low light or out of focus backgrounds - full manual control if needed - the tilting screen -...

Very good! I bought this just for the video mode in 1080p / 120fps. Becomes extremely good quality of the films, I must say. I pull then down the speed in FCPX it will be really good slow motion. Ang stills, I have not much to complain about there, it is like other RX100.

I bought this Sony RX100 IV for girlfriend's Christmas gift. She's really love it and now we're on the vacation using it to record and take pictures for our best moments. It's easy to use. It's a good and valuable camera.

The RX100 IV takes superbly vivid, crisp and striking images that can match up to and in some cases surpass even high end DSLRs. It shoots real 4K video and is the world's first camera to have a 1.0-type stacked CMOS image sensor.

4K video shooting up to 960 fps; Super slow and super-speed shooting; Great bright condition & low light condition shooting; High speed continuous shooting at 16 fps; 180 degrees tiltable LCD Screen

Poor auto-focus system due to lack of touchscreen; Poor battery life; Unable to shoot in raw in certain camera settings

There is one area where the new camera has gone slightly backwards, and that's battery life. The RX100 IV is quoted at a fairly lacklustre 280 shots compared with the Mark III's (albeit not that much better) 320.

High-resolution viewfinder; Tilting screen; Large sensor; 4K video

High price; No touchscreen; Limited raw functionality

Sony keeps upping the ante with their RX100-series of premium compact cameras. Now on its fourth-generation model, the Sony RX100 IV introduces a host of performance-oriented improvements and new features, including 4K video capture, 16fps continuous burst shooting and a very fun high frame rate...

Vastly improved burst speeds with deep buffer; 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 rivals; High-quality 4K video with uncompressed HDMI out; Super-fast High Frame Rate video;...

Pricey for a compact camera; JPEGs can look over-processed at higher ISOs; Lens doesn't offer as much telephoto reach; Battery life not as good as predecessor; 24-70mm-equivalent lens can feel limiting
