Like the auto industry, camera makers refine and tweak their models for every new year or so. The Sony Cyber-shot RX100 series is a classic example: Barely 12 months after the $800 RX100 Mark III made the scene, the new Mark IV ($1,000) has arrived. We've...

Like the RX100 Mark III, the Mark IV earns our Editor's Choice. This small package is expensive and it's a niche camera, but it's possibly the best compact digicam you can buy; there is some truly amazing enhanced performance over its predecessor and th...

Back in 2012 Sony redefined expectations for small cameras by fitting a large, high resolution 20.1-million-pixel 1-in sensor into the pocket-sized RX100. Every year since then, it has taken its advanced point-and-shoot compact and improved it for the bet...
Impressive resolution for a camera so small, Advanced video capabilities including 4K and slow motion recording, 16fps continuous shooting, Electronic shutter (allowing shutter speeds of up to 1/32000sec to be used), Built-in Wi-Fi & NFC connectivity, USB...

The improvements that have been made to the RX100 IV are centred around its new sensor. The repositioning of the high-speed circuitry has resulted in it being able to shoot faster and offer unique video capabilities such as high frame rate mode that allow...

If it ain't broke, don't fix it ... and Sony hasn't. Anyone who's used to using Sony's RX100 cameras will easily find their way around this fourth-gen model. In fact, apart from the addition of a discreetly printed "RX100 IV Exmor RS 4K" label just above...

The RX100 IV is a great camera that's packed with functions and with Sony's finest technology—no-one can doubt that. However, we'd hesitate to recommend this model as it's needlessly complex and doesn't feel naturally straight-forward to use. It seems lik...

Sony's RX100 line of point-and-shoots are widely considered to be among the best point-and-shoots you can buy. Beginning with the original RX100 , Sony's pocket powerhouse pushed the limits with a 1-inch sensor coupled with a sharp Zeiss-branded lens. Tha...
Sony is reclaiming the pocket camera throne. The high-end point-and-shoot market has never been more competitive. Panasonic , Canon , Nikon , Ricoh , and Sony all have skin in the game. And while Sony's RX10 series is still tops, once again Sony has c...

It's 2015 and there's an argument that the compact camera is obsolete in the face of advancing smartphones. The Sony Cyber-shot RX100 IV is the absolute antithesis to that; a high-end, pocketable compact with large 1-inch sensor and 24-70mm f/1.8-2.8 equi...

Whereas its closest competitors, the Canon G7 X and Canon G5 X make you choose between an electronic viewfinder (on the G5 X) and a truly pock-sized design (the G7 X), the RX100 IV incorporates a high quality viewfinder that retracts into the camera when...
There's no denying that the RX100 IV is a hugely impressive camera. At this price it really needs to be. It's not perfect, but there's nothing here that I'd classify as a deal-breaker. Its only real problem is some formidable competition. I prefer the Can...

Video capture in 4K, or at 40x slow motion, is particularly impressive on the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 IV. It is also very easy to use, despite diminutive buttons, thanks to its responsive user-interface and handy lens collar dial. The EVF is less than...

It's hard to find a great reason to drop £840 (that is the RRP, of course, and it can be found cheaper, but still in the mid-£600 range) on the RX100 Mark IV. The biggest reason lies in the Panasonic LX100. That camera is cheaper (RRP £700, but hovering a...
