This bridge style camera is a really good travel camera that produces excellent pictures and 4k video. It uses the same chip as the RX100 line and the Sony FDR AX100 B 4k camcorder. Being a bridge style camera the 24mm-200mm f2.8 is non removable.
Yes there are two new models, the III and IV with longer lenses but they are also slower at the long end capturing less light than the f2.8 Carl Zeiss lens. You can look at my Shutterstock profile here to see the capability of this fantastic little camera. It's quite a bit bigger than the RX100 line of cameras but way smaller and lighter than a regular DSLR camera. It also does not over heat when shooting in 4k mode. It has the same 1" sensor as the RX100 line of pocket cameras.
It shoots 4k video at only 24fps or 30fps. But at 1080p you can shoot all the way up to 960fps slow motion. With the 20 megapixel sensor, this bridge camera takes great photos and videos. Sony is really known for their sensors supplying other camera manufacturers.
Some pros of the camera are:
- Great photo quality
- Great video quality
- Shoots 4k video
- Shoots slow motion video
- Light in weight
- Very portable
- Picture profiles for both still and videos
Some cons of the camera
- No inter changeable lens
- Battery life
- Feels small in the hand
In the near future I will be upgrading to the Sony RX10 Mark IV just for the reach of the lens being a 24MM to 600MM. Really great for those nature shots.
