The editors didn't like
The buttons are a bit fiddly and the settings sometimes hard to access. It can be difficult to use and there's little good creative fun available
The camera shuts down when you retract the viewfinder

Abstract: The Sony RX100 II is not only the best point-and-shoot camera currently for sale, but arguable the greatest ever made. It's the perfect combination of a fast, sharp lens that can shoot in low light; a sensor that's on par with some mirrorless cameras; and...
Abstract: This is a small improvement on the much-praised RX100. The 20-megapixel sensor matched with the image-stabilised 3.6X Zeiss-branded zoom (30-108mm equivalent) i...

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 II delivers excellent photos, speedy performance, and a broad feature set in an attractive, compact package
The camera tends to clip bright highlights more than we typically see, and the slippery body lacks a grip. Plus, the lack of a manually triggered macro mode might put off some fans of close-up photography
The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 II's combination of looks, speed, flexibility, and photo quality makes it a great choice for enthusiasts who can afford the price tag....

It's worth re-stating that this is the best compact camera with an integrated zoom lens. You can find better performance with a fixed focal length compact like as the Ricoh GR for around $US800. If you don't mind bulky interchangeable lenses, the Sony NEX...
