The RX10 IV suggests that Sony has listened to the main criticism levelled at the RX10 III, namely the slightly frustrating autofocus performance, and delivered an excellent bridge camera.The AF performance now does justice to the camera, making it a viab...
Abstract: Sony's latest camera trend of sky-high continuous-shooting rates comes to its RX10 bridge-camera line with the RX10 IV. While it's essentially the same as the RX10 III, the update brings Sony's latest generation of hybrid autofocus systems to the camera...

Expensive, Bulky, Touchscreen controls not fully implemented
