Got mine a couple of odd weeks ago after a long wait too (as bad in the UK trying to get one of these puppies!). But what a camera it is. Image quality - blows you away, lens - superb edge to edge even wide open, the EVF is what you would expect on this camera - an "upper class" version of the RX100IV one (excellent clarity, bright, sharp, distortion free), very positive feel to all the controls, dials and switches, and you will not be wanting for features. It is literally an A7R Mk II in tiny dimensions, so Sony deserve credit for what is a marvel of miniaturisation: just like 35mm film compacts of old, and there were doubters as to whether a digital equivalent would be possible. Well, Sony proved that it is with the RX1 range, but this with the 42.4 Mpx Exmor R BSI sensor, incredible really. I was pleased this camera came along because I wanted to specialise and was geting sick of huge and heavy DSLR set ups to carry about, which was putting me off shooting to be honest. This makes me want to go out and shoot. Accessories wise I got a lovely Gariz leather half case dedicated to the RX1RM2, a Gariz full leather neck/ shoulder strap which is more comfortable and isn't emblazened with logos like the Sony one, and a Fotodiox rounded oblong vented hood and brass soft release, both were great value and high quality - every bit as much as the Sony offerings at far higher prices. Get loads of X batteries if you are thinking of one of these, you will need them (I have 5), and get a third party dual charger: it'll make life easier for you on that front!
The apps are good too. I recommend Sky HDR, and the timelapse apps. The Sony 360 degree sensing remote is a good, affordable accessory too. Haven't bothered with a flash yet!
It is scratchy sometimes, but it depends how tight/ quick you swivvel the focusing ring. Mostly it doesn't, not on mine anyway. I think it is possibly because everything is fitted so tightly (there is not much space in the lens chassis in which the focus ring has to move)
You don't need to push in the viewfinder before you shut it. It's designed to go in as you press down
Haha thank you, Learned that a few minutes after I posted this video.
I just got one few days ago and I'm absolutely loving it
Glad to hear that. I love mine, can't stop shooting with it!
Did you buy a filter for it or no need? I see people buying a soft shutter release too
So beautiful... Have a nice use...
Did you ever buy a filter for this? Soft shutter release? Do you still own it? You favorite camera?
Sold it about a year ago, did not get a filter. Shutter release was perfect. One of the best cameras I ever owned
@@AdonisArias why did you sell it?

@@AdonisArias I hear ya...I guess if I get it, I will limit doing vids and also buy 2-3 batteries
@@inquisitvem6723 absolutely. You'll get some amazing results out of video and photos. But just know that it is very limiting. So be prepared

couldn't agree with you more, just ordered a few extra batteries.

That’s the 3000 $ camera?
Some review please. That would be great sir. I can't wait to see it. Thank u in advance.
Would love to but just don't have the time, so sorry, By now there should be several reviews up on RUclips on this camera
I love that. But still expensive 😭
lens hood?
Its so damn pretty!
She's pretty good looking
is the lense not interchangeable?
nitto1320i it is not
Focus ring has scratch feeling inside
Don't think it's scratching any elements tho...
