The editors didn't like
External battery charger not included

Larger than other compact cameras

Fairly expensive at roughly $1

Priced as much as some DSLRs
Permanentlyattached lens = a bulky camera

Lens doesn't zoom very quickly
High ISO performance doesn't quite match RX100 II

Pricey
JPEG images are oversharpened and overprocessed
Video bit rates not competitive with best digital cameras

Slow zoom control, especially when filming, Laborious to manually set AF area, No touch-screen, Can’t control AF while filming, Disappointing Continuous AF, Basic smartphone remote control, No GPS tagging with Sony app, No interval timer, No slow motion video option, Most expensive bridge camera to date.
Let's not beat about the bush here: the Sony RX10 is the most powerful and capable bridge camera to date, but it's also the most expensive. So that's the non-shocker here: pay more, get more. But the interesting part is someone thought to take the bri...

As hoped for, the RX10 has the same high-quality, high performance sensor as the RX100 II. If the handling is good and Carl Zeiss 24-200mm f2.8 equivalent zoom performs as well as anticipated, then the RX10 may be the most versatile ‘walkabout' model on t...

Conventional wisdom says that if you want the best pictures, you want interchangeable lenses. The Sony RX10 turns that theory on its head, substituting the interchangeable lenses for just the one fixed lens -- but what a great optic it is! With a bright ...
Abstract: Stepping up in the compact spectrum are cameras that tend to be aimed at photographers who want full photographic control. Good low-light performance, the ability to shoot Raw, and accessible manual controls make these compacts a viable portable alternati...
