Superb image quality
Great for video and very nice camera to carry around.
A great electronic viewfinder that doesn't increase the size of the svelte Sony Cyber-shot RX100 III is one of the camera's highlights. Plus it offers excellent performance

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: Great results, but as costly as a DSLR- The control ring makes it easy to change settings- There are a bunch of preset modes to choose- Now you can add an external flash if neededThe first Sony Cybershot DSC-RX100 had a superior picture quality despite t...
With novel additions, the RX 100 II is a good jump over the original RX 100. But, as far as sheer image quality is concerned, only low-light performance of the sequel is really worth bragging about. Everything else seems pretty much the same, including vi...
Handles low light shots well, 1" sensor gives lownoise shots at ISO 3200, Pocketable, Incredible amount of DoF at f1/1.8, WiFi/NFC compliant.
Optical zoom limited to 3.6x, Heavy, Steep learning curve, Expensive
The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 II is a fine point and shoot that can surely change people's perception of cameras. In fact it can serve as a very good pocket-able option for those who don't fancy lugging their DSLRs everywhere. Coupled with an Exmor R sen...
The Sony RX100 II is one of the best compacts we have tested. The price point of Rs. 42,990 is something that is a bit of a bother. Allow us to explain. The Sony RX100 is still a capable camera and apart from a BSI sensor and improved sensitivity, the ot...

Its 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 $800. If you dont mind bulky interchangeable lenses, the Sony NEX-...
Large 1-inch sensor allows high ISO shooting without much noise, Fast f/1.8 aperture at 28mm end, Extremely fast AF, Incredibly sturdy and compact
No quick access to all settings, Telephoto aperture of f/4.9 is slow
The RX100 II is the same as the RX100 as far as performance goes, but packs a much needed hot-shoe, Wi-Fi and NFC for expanded connectivity and an incredibly convenient tilt-able screen. But one must stop to wonder whether these additions justify the Rs. ...
Abstract: The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 II ($899) won many awards. It was named Editor's Choice for Best Compact Prosumer category in the Digital Life Awards 2014, for its superb image quality, fast operation and excellent handling.So how do you make such a good ca...
Abstract: To me, version 2 of any gadget is always a better version. You will expect list of features added but sometimes the core specs remains the same. This is what you will see in Sony's RX100 II (some calls this Mark 2).The first version was kind of plain and...

We love this camera, and would encourage anyone looking to buy a new compact camera to buy this. It might be a bit more expensive than other compact cameras, but we promise you that you won't be disappointed. Having good photos from trips and memorable ev...

Abstract: Following on the heels of the original Sony RX100, the updated Mark II version of the compact camera seems to have latched on to a successful format.Physically, the RX100 Mark II is similar to the original. It sports the same Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* 10...
