- My thoughts on using the budget friendly Sony RX100 Mark 1 from 2012 in 2023 for your photography. If you're looking for the short answer: leave your phone at home and pick up this camera for your photography instead.

Long live the RX100 Mark 1!!
My all time favorite compact! I became a hardline GRD guy but caught on to the RX100 a couple of years ago.

@@OneMonthTwoCameras do you have any settings suggestions? Like turning of all the artificial sharpness or something like that? (If it's possible of course)
@@skullerhead6150 I shoot raw for color and my settings for black and white are at 11:36
I would go for the Sony RX100VA ! You mention in your heading the Contax T3, a future Camera I will love to see is a compact digital Camera in style as the Contax T (first version) and/or the Minox 35ML !
I have always been ambivalent about the RX100. I think the sweet spot, if there was one, was the Mk III, with the faster lens at the 70mm end and an EVF. Call me old-fashioned, but I live in a country with very bright sunshine much of the time and some form of viewfinder is really useful. For a Canon P&S, the S95/S100/S110 are fantastic little cameras.
I was so sad to loose my S95 when I was last in NY... Alas.
I sold the mark1 for the mark 3. Love both. I use Fujifilm for my work but mark iii as a travel camera.
The faster lens on the later versions is definitely a benefit. The main advantage of the MK1 besides the price is IMHO that it's the smallest of the bunch with later versions getting bigger as features were added.
@@Max_Mustermann Yeah I got my RX100 mark i really cheap and sold it for double. I enjoy everything accept images over ISO400 and the depth of field.
Fantastic, you kind of got my rx100 back to life again - and I agree, the flash is really nice! Also love that the Mark 1 is a little smaller than the rest of the rx100 series.
Me too! I didn't even mention that but it's a definite benefit.
I think the pictures you took with the rx100 look fantastic and makes me continually want one from that series. I'm also sad that advanced compact cameras are a dying breed, I honestly think it's the best type of camera for everyday documentary type photography. I've warmed up to cell phone photography a bit but it still doesn't beat a good camera.
I think it is so great to have a capable phone camera but I love, nay NEED, that experience of a standalone camera. Thank goodness for these old point and shoots.
@@OneMonthTwoCameras Have you tried either version of the Panasonic LX100? That's what I've been comparing the Sony too in my head for my future compact camera. I mainly shoot an old Panasonic GH2 and I think the Leica lens on the lx100 would be enough for my needs.
@@ledheavy26 I have! I actually have an LX100 Mark 1. It's very much in the review pipeline. I like it a lot but feel I get more out of the Sony files. That said, I haven't given the LX100 a run out yet so it's a little unfair for me to judge quite yet.
Nowadays mid to high range cellphones take good pictures but there's too much algorithm and not enough straight from the camera/lens, image. Pictures looks nice but they lack character, they're kinda too perfect, almost as if it's just a rendition of what you saw at that moment rather than a rendition of what you wanted to show of that moment. Of course you can always post process and use filters, but imo it takes off the charm of taking a pictures with some settings and seeing the end result on your screen.
Ricoh is a thing
I love this camera. Out of all of the ones I own this is my black and white dedicated camera. At 1600 iso the grain is GORGEOUS. And it's sharp as a tack at 1.8. So glad you talked about this one!! Also, I'm pretty sure I was the person who said this is the Contax t3 but digital! If anyone is lusting for that camera I recommend this because the t3 is NOT worth $3k. And I can confidently say that because I owned one!! Anyway...this was GREAT. Really love this channel!
YAY!!! It totally was you that made that comment (and I realized I accidentally said G2 which makes no sense as the RX is not interchangeable lens based). This camera truly slays. Loved it so much.
@@OneMonthTwoCameras HAHA! Yeah I make those mistakes all the time. Part of being a camera junkie. Also, might I add for anyone reading this, The One Month Two Cameras Lightroom Profile works AMAZING with this camera!
@@denniscahlo Awww thank you for sharing!
You make me want it now😂
Prove it in court 😂🤣
Watched this video 24h ago. Immediately hopped on eBay and got myself a Mark 1 in absolute mint condition. Already love it so much!
Such a relief as a professional photographer to be able to use this compact thing everywhere and anytime.
Thanks for your insight, got me hooked from second one!
I've never heard of the first version being called the Mark 1, but I suppose that is what it is. I used this camera the other day to take pictures of a play, indoors of course. The images looked decent, but I fixed the noise with free trial software of DxO pure raw 2. Images came out great after that, and it was nice not having to carry a big camera with a long telephot.
DXO Raw is truly incredible
There is a version of Capture One Express that is available for free for SONY cameras as well as some other brands. I've been getting great results with it from the RX100.
It's the first one, what would you like to call it? #9
Everything you said about the Sony is exactly my feelings about the Canon S90, but the Canon is smaller, better battery life and I do like the CCD output of BW more than CMOS by a touch. The biggest upside of the Sony for me is that it's nice to have 20MP instead of 10 in the S90 and better ISO performance, but the size of the S90 is just a big win to me and with DxO DeepPrime, well, you know. I am on a business trip back to San Diego and left my M240 home because I wanted to really put the S90 thru it's paces and been LOVING doing street with it. And since f/2.0 on the smaller sensor is like f/9, manual focus at 28mm to 2m and I just go snapshot mode, and pop over to slow-sync flash quick and easy.
I might have to try the OG RX100 as it's been a few years since I used one (I remember it being "heavy' for some reason), but I have my eye on a Ricoh GR Digital IV instead. :P
Here’s a wild confession, I did not like my Canon S 95. I mean I loved the manual control but I really didn’t like the files. But I feel like maybe I got a bad copy and I need to give it another try. Can’t wait to see what you make with the S90!
Definitely get the grd iv. I got the s95 last week and I already have the iv. The GRD has so much soul in comparison to the S95. You’re gonna really love it! I will never ever sell mine. I also got the RX100 mk1. And straight away I knew that the s95! Is Going back on eBay. The controls are great though apart from the clicking lens ring. 😅
The s90 definitely has better ergonomics when compared to the RX100 with being easier to operate one handed and having bigger buttons. But the better high ISO performance of the RX100 IHMO makes the camera a lot more versatile for various lighting conditions and indoor shooting. Plus the images have a certain 3D "pop" that is more reminiscent of a DSLR than a compact point and shoot.
I also love my original RX100. It is very capable for the age and size of the camera, and I also find that since it can be charged via USB it is a great no-nonsense travel companion. Mine got a little ‘dust bunny’ on the sensor. I very carefully took it apart, cleaned the sensor, and viola! It is as good as new! I love it. I do wish that it had wifi connectivity to transfer photos wireless to my iPhone. But hey, you can’t have everything! Thanks for the great video.
Sony RX100 mark 5 was my pocket camera between 2019-2020. Lovely point and shoo camera to use to walk around my university. Sadly i need to let it go for funds, but i replaced it with a Pentax K200D this March. It's not top of the line like the RX100, but i am loving it because of the CCD sensor.
You made me take out my RX100 M1 out and dust it off. Had it since 2013, and it was an investment back then, half of my salary went for buying it, and I never regretted it. I started travelling the world with this camera and was a great companion and memories saver. It's the OG.
Half your salary? 😂
it is good for selfies?
I'm a sucker for a ring on a point and shoot that let's you customize it such a cool feature. And those raw files! Very awesome. Also I have to say I dig your shirt💮✨
Thank you Archie! Always a pleasure to see your name here :)
@@OneMonthTwoCameras thank YOU. Always love coming back for a new video!
I had the m5a version of this camera which is arguably the most desirable model as it has all the features of the m6 version with the faster 24-70mm equivalent lens of the earlier models.
I got some fantastic photos with that camera which offers incredible performance for its TINY size.
My one complaint that ultimately lead to me not using and eventually selling it was the shooting and user experience. I am a Sony shooter and while the menu and layout is tolerable on the full frame Sony bodies I found it much more frustrating on such a small body that required you to dip into the menu system frequently to change settings. Over time the users becomes tired of the Sony menu nightmare and just resorts to shooting in P mode as basic point & shoot, which the camera is great for but if you enjoy more control and traditional shooting experience I’ve found the Fuji X-E line of cameras to be a good fit. Sure they’re a little bit bigger than the RX line but still fit into a coat pocket with the 27mm pancake lens attached and you’re getting a much larger ASP-C sensor. Obviously you lose the zoom function of the RX but I was ok with that as I find shooting a standard prime more enjoyable.
I can see the value in the older variants as great point and shoots but I’m not as sold on the more expensive recent models. I think a really interesting camera would be an RX with a 35mm equivalent prime lens, few more Nikon manual dials/buttons, and a simplified menu to compete against the Ricoh GR series. I would buy that camera in a heartbeat.
Great review! Looking forward to the next one 👏
I definitely agree the Sony menus were a mess (much better with their most modern cameras but that is a very new change). The one thing I do actually like about this Mark 1 is, as far as even the RX line of menus goes, it was still on the relatively simple side and shooting in manual, I just dial in the ISO and can change my aperture and shutter speed without going into the menus. But the XE line up is great as well! I had the XE3 and was impressed by its size and output but I did not like the touch screen gestures replacing the physical buttons which caused me to part with mine.
The imaginary camera you describe is definitely one I would buy!
I tried to do some research into why these older cameras specially these pocket cameras have such good colour output in the RAW files.
And I collected bunch of colour spectral graphs taken from these cameras by independent sources and noticed older cameras have much more trichromatic responses by that it means they have very near equal heights to the red, green and blue channel peaks while also having much higher red channel readings.
They see colours more equal, whereas modern cameras have LOTS of green in their channels with green peak almost always dominating creating a triangular peak, low blue and red but lots of green.
Interestingly the Sony RX100 VII actually has a lot more trichromatic response than the older RX100 does, the Canon G9x M2 also has very muted green output making a more trichromatic response, which would explain why these cameras seem to have colours more reminiscent of older cameras.
Canon 400D for example is a beast in its own right, and the terrible ISO performance makes it feel like you shoot slide film at ISO 100 - 200 but the colours are outrageously good, you can push them all day, my modern Samsung NX1 cannot be pushed nearly as much before colours start clipping.
WOW!!! This is amazing intel! Thank you so much for sharing. This is endlessly fascinating.
thank you, you made me buy the mk3 version for a reasonable price in new state. and I didn't actually "need" it... love your work. I have to stop watch your vids, because I still miss a micro4-3's in my collection. make more YTs :-)
i bought the rx100 vii as a pocket camera last year and it constantly surprises me with how good it is. it was funny seeing this video title, because i've referred to it several times to friends as a modern digital contax type camera. when i was looking for a pocket camera, all of the fuji options were tempting, but the rx100 was the only series to offer everything i wanted: viewfinder, flash, pocket sized and a zoom lens. it takes so much of the guesswork out of casual photography for me, and i frequently take some of my favorite images ever on it. i have multiple blown up poster sized images from this camera hanging around my house. such a gem! great video
Once again, you made me reach for my wallet and my spleen punched my gut. Anyway, I remember V1 of this camera. I used to carry it with me when training for bike marathons…and constantly stopped to take photos. I loved the sharp photos I always got. I also came last in the marathons because I couldn’t finish training.
Haha. Apologies to both your spleen and gut!
Chicklet packets… love!
Haha! DID YOU KNOW the Chiclets name is derived from the Mexican Spanish word "chicle", derived from the Aztec Nahuatl word "chictli/tzictli", meaning "sticky stuff" and referring to a pre-Columbian chewing gum found throughout Mesoamerica which was a pre-Columbian chewing gum was tapped as a sap from various trees??! MIC DROP.
Brandon Li made an early video with an original RX100, and Tim Kellner's early videos were made with a RX100 III or IV. They are surprisingly capable cameras. My choice is the Panasonic LX10, which has an even wider aperture and very decent 4k video.
Got the Mark IV. The EVF is kind of useable. I use it.
Great vid! I just got the mark 7 for stupid cheap and haven't seen many youtube photographers talk about this line in so much detail (especially the street stuff). Montevideo is so beautiful
That is awesome! The 7 must be blazing fast....
I had the mark vii and still have the mark i... It was ahead of its time. The dynamic range still impresses me.
I was really surprised!
Fantastic photo examples. They are really selling me this camera
I would like to recommend the mark II version. As far as I know, it is the only version with a hot shoe. I do not use the hot shoe for flash. I use a thumb grip and added the Sony rubber grip to the front of the camera. I enjoy portrait/vertical images and the ergonomics for one handed shooting are a pure joy.
I have the original RX100 but I don’t use it as much these days as my iPhone 14 has taken its place as a carry around Point & Shoot. For those who upgraded from the original RX100 to a more recent version do you see an improvement of picture quality?
Thanks!
I had the OG RX100 M1 but sold it when the M3 come out. Great little pocket camera. I installed the Sony hand grip on mine for better grip as it can be slippery. Just upgraded recently to the A7rv but the RX 100 M3 is still my fav and great video btw 🥰
I have the RX100M2 and it's amazing how the colours hold up compared to my A7IV.
First gen RX100 user since the get go. Still love it today. I added the Sony stick-on grip. Highly recommended.
RX100 VII is better in almost all ways, but the RX series has been discontinued since company cameras are replaced by smartphones.
I had the Mark II for some time and like it really as well. But since then I switched to the Canon G9X Mark II as i did get a good deal at B&H on it together with a real good waterproof housing. Since then I bought for almost nothing the more or less identical Mark I version as well. It is even smaller than the RX100 series, my definition of a small camera actually: If fits together with a medium sized smartphone into your pants front pocket. It’s also a great companion if used together with a Canon DSLR as bit bigger a travel kit.
I have this camera since its released, and it gives me no reason to get another point and shot. I still use it when I travel, it's great for street photo, once I used it for Northern light capturing, when the A7r battery gone flat at the crucial moment. It's true it's not the most ergonomic camera out there, but the "slipperiness" is a perk when you want to put away and retrieve the camera quickly.
Loved the video. I assume you have your Canon Powershot by now, but I worry that you may have bought one with a dead sensor. I had my A620 from 2006 to 2011, so that was fair use, but I do miss that camera and look forward to seeing your video.
Oh interesting! I’ve had mine for a few months without issue but was that a common issue for the A line beyond plain age?
i love my mkI! i’m devastated that the flash doesn’t work anymore. such a convenient little guy
My Rx100 isnt turning on and i tried charging it but so sign of life can somebody help me ?
Bought it new in Feb 2013. Still have it. Never bought one of the newer versions. Great camera!
👏🏼👏🏼
excellent video!! just curious, do you use DRO when shootinc SOOC black and white?
Thanks for these insights! Always appreciated!
I see a video from Ali: I click "Like" first, then I watch the video after.
Hahaha! Hero.
Yes indeed!
I can get my hands on a M1 for 220 euros or a M3 for 450 euros, and I'm just not sure which one to get! *aagh*
With the M1 - I think they are getting to that age where many will be starting to fail mechanically. I got one handed down which failed a few years ago (I think the lens motor died), and I picked one up second hand quite cheaply - that also broke down a few months on.
Still an amazing camera - if you don't need the phase detection autofocus (which you shouldn't unless you are taking photos of "in motion" subjects) or the viewfinder in the newer models. Have now replaced it with a Rx100 M4 and having that viewfinder might seem like a small difference, but was a gamechanger for me - made it more of a more compact bridge camera/pocketable DSLR rather than a "point and shoot".
Oof yeah I've heard these early Sonys were prone to lens failure as well
Ali ... cant believe i didnt figure out the flexible flash pointing upwards on this and the XE1. Thanks for my double DUH moment.
LOL! Yay!!!
Have the Rx100, the RX100 M3 and the Gr3. Use the Rx100 the most. Just trow it in the pocket and you have all you need. Shooting On full auto and BW on P. It is just perfect
😍
great review. I just got the camera in excellent condition. Question, where did you get the wrist strap. The side strap lugs are really small.
again great review of a very nice "pocket rocket."
Mine came with the camera, but this should work! a.co/d/941YELu
Thanks, just placed the order.

THE MK1 has a non BSI sensor, 20.1Mpx Exmor CMOS.
so has a slightly different look that the other RX100 mk2 to mk7 does with photos.
i still have both the mk1 and mk7(since 2019)
Nice video as always.
I do have a mark III, but I'm not sold on it. I recognize the quality of the Sony RX100, I just prefer the Olympus XZ-1 (and the Panasonic Lumix LX3). As far as the EVF goes, I'm prone to not using it - and I don't like the way the camera turns off, when I close the EVF, though that's nitpicking on my part.
I haven't shot my RX100 in B&W mode - maybe I should try that out. For now, there other cameras on my list though, so the RX100 will have to wait a while.
I can totally understand that. That LX body still remains perhaps my all time fav for a compact along with the Ricoh GR line.
Picked up a RX100 Mk3 instead of a DSLR of a similar price before a big trip 2 years ago - just to be sure I would take it everywhere. The crowded menus didn't help me learn any basics of photography, but I got some AMAZING shots with it. The SOOC colors are not very good in my experience, the greens and browns especially seem to almost mush together. They just need some careful tweaking.
I'm always bringing it as a compact backup cam to whatever limited mid-00's kit I brought out that day :) I'm surprised you survived without the grip! It's a necessity in my eyes
Yeah the grip definitely does wonders. I truly let this just be my bang around camera but think I'll add the grip now :)
I just got the M3 a few days ago and I still haven't got the chance to go out and do like a full on walk with it, but so far it's just super fun to use!
comfortable on the hand and also compact to carry in your pockets. It's overall a perfect camera because the image quality and ease of use is good enough to start in photography but also it's robust enough for a more experience user to really make some awesome shots.
I personally would recommend the M3 over the previous ones because of the tilt screen and the pop up flash that you can bounce up, but the M1 and M2 still deliver awesome quality from what I've seen.
one thing: that tiny battery takes like 2 hours to fully charge and it will allow about 320 pictures, so keep that in mind because you might want to get extras.
Also a note: the new ones I THINK improve mostly on quality of life and functionality options, like using USB-C instead of micro, and from the M4 and onwards you can plug it on your computer and use it as a webcam, no capture card needed.
I'm deep into the Nikon cameras going back to 1969, but I was lucky enough to get the Sony RX100 Mark 1 back in 2012, and the Mark 6 in 2018. What gems. I've been dreaming of a Mark 8, but it looks like the rumors have fizzled out. I use the Mark 6 for backpacking and travel and everyday walk-around. Still I learned a few new tricks from your video. Thanks very much. Well done. I'm a subscriber and instagram follower now. :) Oh, you forgot to mention that the Mark 7, Mark 6, Mark 5A are all still available new at B&H and other places. Even the Mark 3 is listed there as "available but temporarily out of stock." Great commitment Sony!
Wich one is better to take photos, this one or canon sx620 hs? ❤
Bought mine new around the time the MKII came out and the price of the original went down to a more reasonable level. It is a great little camera and the thing I like the most besides the image quality is that it is possible to disable all status icons in the "viewfinder" display, leaving only important shooting information at the bottom. The result is very reminiscent to how a DSLR viewfinder works and it's great for framing the shot as the viewfinder is unobstructed.
I got a iii recently and am loving it. I've been a manual or Av shooter forever but with toys one I'm finding I trust its auto more and more. The depth of field is almost always pretty deep so I just accept that as a limitation and then there's not a whole lot of reason not to use auto. There only thing I don't like is the nose reduction feels overly strong and can produce weird results so I just turn it off and do that in post off I need to
I totally agree! I’m loving this thing in auto. So much fun to just truly point and shoot. But agree with you, the noise reduction is a problem so I’ve definitely turned mine off as well.
Lux and I want one 😅haha along with everyone else who watches this video I assume. I was just saying you are such a great all round photographer Ali - you seem to be able to nail any genre. Amazing review. Amazing woman. Amazing pictures. 👸🏻
OMG I LOVE YOU SO MUCH. Way too generous, thank you xx Wish you were next door and we could shoot everyday
I use RX100 Mark 1 in a underwater housing for UW videos. It's very good: ruclips.net/video/XruDsjgADoY/видео.html.
I also use jacket case to protect the camera above water, so you don't have worry about dropping the camera.
This is going to sound crazy, but I worked as a professional photographer from 2011 until the start of the pandemic in 2020. I primarily shot weddings, but I was also a Getty Images photographer (editorial) and I did a lot of BTS for movies and TV shows here in L.A. After the pandemic, I became depressed about photography and quit and moved onto another career. I sold all my cameras, lenses, flashes, etc. except for my X100V.
This channel was randomly recommended to me when my brother and I were talking about the Ricoh GRIII and watching your videos is kinda re-igniting my passion for photography.
I just don't love staring at Photo Mechanic for hours everyday...
Snagged a like new EURO version for $140 back in 2018. Came across a Mark 5 at a local pawn shop and was able to talk the price down to $220 out the door. Sold the Mark 1 to a family member for $100 this last year. Great camera if you don't care too much about video. I really like my Mark 5 and now it really fits the bill for my perfect grab and go camera.

Really useful and relevant insight, thanks and bravo for your work !
I'm diving into digital p&s "youngtimers" as i like to say, and of course many of them second hands lcds are scratched.
I recently hot my hands on a Samsung EX1 (damn this thing is....hhhduuuufjhfhdhhhshsh mf good) but unfortunately the anti sparkle coating seemed to have said: "ok i'm done, i'm gonna get the f outta here"
...as scratches have moved in the crib.
Soooo... --> Polywatch guys.
A suede, a couple of drops on the screen, then rubb it like you'll die tomorrow.
It will save the day
I have an RX100 original version like this. My regular digital is a Ricoh GX100, a GRDigital on the cheap. I greatly appreciate the photographic abilites of the RX100, but the handling is terrible, and a grip improves that only a little. I also find that ring around the lens just awkward to move, reaching round to change setting seems to unbalance the already marginal handhold of the camera. Maybe I'm spoiled by the handling of the Ricoh, but I've been out and about in my local town today with a recently re-acquired early '90's Olympus AF-10 point and shoot, and can only say that it was really nice just to direct my attention to what I see through the viewfinder, rather than trying to maintain a grasp of something like the RX100.
The weirdness of RUclips algorithms... I had just watched your video on the Fujifilm X10, which I loved and always regret selling to get the RX100 mk1, which I didn't like anything like as much. Then this video is 'suggested'! But now I think I may have got the wrong idea on what the Sony offered..? So I sold it too. What a great little camera, or two, I once had...!
Did they make different versions of Mark 1? Because I thought I have that but my max ISO is 6400 which quite different than yours lol. Anyways I love this camera, it was my first and I'm still using it as my go-to.
My mode button is now sticky or stuck. The og had japanese glass I believe. Much different then the others
Have the Mark 1 and just getting into it. Fun camera. Can you recommend an economical compact camera for landscape photography? Son is at school in CO and would like to photograph some of the amazing places he has been in the Rockies. Used is fine. Thx
Hi! just stumbled to your channel while looking about RX100. I was wondering if this will be suitable to use for recording video during concert at night? What about zoom power? Thank you
I had the mark IV. It was a great camera and it took great pics. Video was good too! They still hold up to my A7RIII and film shots. I took it to South America and even shipped it to a couple of friends to use on their trips they didn’t want to take full frame cameras!
Sold it when I stopped using it as much, before I got in to the digicams. Maybe I I should’ve hung on to it, lol.
I did find the shooting experience clunky and a little awkward.
Yeah I agree that ergos and menus is where Sony generally fall short, at least in the early days, but boy did I forgot how great and fun this little thing could be!
Lovely pics!!! I just bought one, which is my very first camera. You shot these with auto configuration? Thank you for this amazing video!
Great video. The RX 100 is a fantastic camera everything you say it is. I was able to pick up a cosmetically beaten up but fully functional copy for £50 ($61) and it has lived in my jacket pocket ever since. Edit, what's even better, my camera has its original screen protector, so replacement on the way. Thanks for the info/link.
What a steal!! The best camera is the one you always have with you :)
I bought this camera on Facebook Marketplace for 10€without charger or memory card,works perfectly and i debating if i keep it to use it for personal use or sell it,what should I do?
Using my OG for mainly black and white shots with just about the same settings as you have. It’s great at BW. So much so that I hardly shoot analog BW anymore. I’m old enough to enjoy the ease of use of digital :-)
Hello. I realised that in rx100m1 and m2, in M mode there is auto iso disabled, in rx100m3 and above it's avaliable to choose. Any idea why is it so? On the street or eg. when I'm on bike and one hand only available there is pretty much impossible to take any picture with a controlled parameters :(
I love this little camera! It’s takes beautiful pictures! Love your video on this RX100.
TYSM!
Damn, hearing you talk so enthusiastically about this camera, now i really feel like i want one... :D But probably i'll go for the mk3, still affordable, but some improvements over the basic model.
Hi! Excellent job, i never saw photos edited like this of rx100. Where i can found more of this photos taken by rx??
Excellent review, the best on youtube!
How long have you been with camera . You seem to know this cameras. They all money sucker from us . They are good distraction. Sometimes make us happy for a few hours. German cameras can make us happy for a few days . Japanese camera more practical
This is fab, I'm a fan of Sony compacts bit have yet to try the OG RX100!
It really blew me away!
Bought one at the back of this review and absolutely love everything said, love this camera. Truly pocketable and images are brilliant and even the jpegs are configurable on Lr. ❤
Is the change from the 1 to the for 4 worth its money? The 1 cost 350 and the 4 costs 560 euros.
Any info for a good way to set this up for travel use (not necessarily street)? I'm using your settings for the Olympus XZ1, something along those lines for this would be great
I've literally just ordered one from MPB after watching this video x 3 times! thnx so much - love your videos, and the use of footage shot with the specific cam is the icing on the cake.
That is so delightful to hear! I hope you have the greatest time with it
I've got ZV1. God bless you for showing, how easy it's to turn this lil badаss into Cartier-Bresson-ish style street photo beast! I always thought that Creative styles are made for casual shooters...
You just hit me with a WAVE of nostalgia. My very first camera that I bought with my own money! Back then, I had no idla of what I was doing. But looking at what you did with it is just making me want to het one more than ever! Thanks for the awesomw vid once again!
The nostalgia is mutual!! Hope you get a chance to shoot one once again. I really had too much fun with it.
You should hunt down the original rx1 with the attached viewfinder. It’s pricy but the funnest camera Sony’s ever made.
Hi, thanks for making this video. Would you recommend this for a first time camera buyer?
ha! very nice ... and another camera on my eBay list 🤪but maybe I'll check the RX100 mkIII out with that 24-70mm lens and that flip-up screen (an evf) but that might be too "new"/"modern"😅✌🏼
haha! ma dilemma I can relate to.
I bought the RX100 V1 for my wife when she went Europe when they first came out. I do still use it for street photography. But I do find it small for my hands. I did find the perfect small street camera that I bought for a good price. You should do a review of the A5000 with the kit lens. It has wifi and some more other features and can be found for a good price now. You can also use the Sony camera Apps with the A5000 that give you a lot of extra options. No one talks about the Sony camera Apps that improve the camera.
The perfect video i needed to see and make sure i have to get this little beast, i have a fujifilm xt3 but since its so expensive here in Brazil im always too worried to walk around with the camera, so i was looking for a good compact one and this sony will be my next camera
Love to see your channel is growing so fast! Congratulations on 15k! So cool.
Thank you so much!!
Just sold all my Pentax reflex set. Now I’m using only RX100
i have the 100m4 and it will be the only camera i will take on my world travel trip! its so great for backpacking!
Interesting that recently I was recommended to try this camera. Now I’m intrigued 💸
(Btw nice new hairstyle!
FYI : ULBTER makes a good screen cover for the RX 100-1. Ulber 9H tempered glass. Easy to apply, comes with three screens. Sold by Amazon for 7:95 ish.
Hi Thanks for the great video! I have subbed and liked. What was the song at the start please?
Ricoh and Canon still make point and shoots, albeit be it premium models :-)
This is one of my favorite cameras ever, I still remember when it was released, I was very excited about how tiny and yet so powerful it is.
It was totally revolutionary! It was so fun to pick up again.
I have a question, and I'm only half way through this glorious video, my apologies if you do answer it... I used own the mark 5 version, and I loved how the zoom toggle would give you an lcd read out of your equivalent focal length. Does the mark 1 also do that? As someone who typically hauls around big cameras with a bag full of primes, this function was an ideal director's viewfinder that saved me so much time swapping out lenses unnecessarily. I gave that mark 5 to my dad when I moved, but maybe another rx100 is in my cards. So excited to keep watching!
I decide buying this cam with this video. Thanks from Türkiye with low purchasing power
is this camera good with video? which compact cameras do you recommend for video
how do the people in the comments deal with sensor dust? mine has a ton of it and also this series is notorious for that.
Thanks! Just pulled mine out and will give it a go!
Have fun!
Commenting in 2023 Just bought one of those on ebay after your video - thank you!
