But without question
The camera's focusing abilities are its best feature. In low light

The original version of this review cited the wrong camera model from Olympus. The correct camera is the Olympus XZ2

The product is nearly perfect
With flaws so nitpicky and minor that most every user would shrug them off. The biggest hangup
Really
Is the price. But you can find a few tiny technical shortcomings if you look hard enough

Difficult to Read the Time
Pricey
LCD Not Vivid Enough
Not Easy to Remove Band Links
Despite its simple external controls
Its options are somewhat overwhelming
Some lens flare noticed at night when shooting wide open
Poor rendering of yellows - undersaturated and shifted toward green
Slow flash recycling

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
As expensive as some D-SLRs. No EVF option

Unimpressive video performance and usability
Expensive
No matter how you look at it
0 is a lot of cheese. No viewfinder. Preprogrammed scenes lack intelligence. Video export isn't as smooth or easy as it is on other cameras
There's no doubt that the RX100 delivers the goods, but it has strong competition in the shape of the Fujifilm FinePix X10 and Canon Powershot S100. We'd advise getting hands-on with all three if at all possible, but if not, we'll sum up that three-way by...
Good image quality with lots of detail, Good low-light performance for a digital compact, Speedy autofocus, Fast F1.8 lens
Battery can only be charged in-camera, Slower at f/4.9 at longest end, Pricey
The biggest issue that we foresee consumers will have with the RX100 is its price. At PhP 34,999, you can grab an entry-level DSLR or a mirrorless system camera. So why is the RX100 costlier than its peers? The Canon S100, for instance, costs PhP 28,998 o...
Gorgeous images from a huge sensor and a terrific lens, in a tiny body, Micro USB charging is convenient, Built in flash can be tilted back with your thumb for ceilingbounce lighting, Fast, snappy and responsive, Comes with some neat photo effects for tho
At this price point the RX100 is competing with big boy cameras that have interchangeable lenses, Not much expandability (i.e. external flash or mic input, add on lens modifiers or filters, etc), Will make you feel insecure about your current pocket camer
Abstract: I hesitate to label this a compact camera, because the Sony DSC-RX100 is somewhat in a class of its own. While it may look like a compact point-and-shoot camera, it ranks much higher in terms of camera capabilities and image qualities. The single most out...

If you're looking for the best digital compact in the market today, then the RX100 should definitely be in your shortlist. Build quality is superb, and the camera features a host of modes and options that will not only appeal to the beginner, but also the...
Exceptional JPEG output with great noise reduction, white light and contrast capture; Live View gives accurate representation of actual image captured; Great lowlight shots due to highend lens and 1" sensor; Fast autofocus; Full manual controls for video; Very compact body,
Quickly increasing aperture as you zoom in; Slow zoom in movies; Slow autofocus at complete zoom for close objects; Flimsy flash mechanism; HD video capture modes limited to AVCHD.
At the end of the day the Sony Cyber-shot DSC RX100 is a point & shoot camera, so when its limitations do show up, I can understand the technical reasons behind it. The simple fact of the matter is that right now there is no other point & shoot, let al...
Excelente resolución y calidad de imagen en todas la sensibilidades, Cámara muy compacta, Vídeo de gran calidad y con opciones de ajuste, Modo panorámico y HDR/DRO, Duración de la batería y carga vía USB
Ergonomía de una cámara compacta: accesos a funciones, pantalla fija, falta de visor, agarre, etc, Zoom poco luminoso en posición tele, Ausencia de verdadero modo macro, En ocasiones es lenta al grabar / acceder a las imágenes, No incluye cargador externo
Como hemos ido comentando a lo largo del análisis, la Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 nos ha producido unas sensaciones parecidas a las de la Canon PowerShot S110, no en vano son muy similares en su aspecto exterior. En ambos casos se ha hecho un magnífico trab...
