It is THE most feature laden,capable compact ever...except...it's not very compact:^( Feature set wise this thing kills most "Pro DSLR's" all the way down to weather sealing,headphone-in,Mic-in, focus peaking and a firmware update to give you XAVC-S Video.A Hi res tilting LCD,ISO standard hot-shoe and a Hi res eye-level viewfinder make it even more Pro friendly... If all of THAT weren't enough...Sony gifted it with a crazy good Zeiss designed 24-200mm 2.8 equivalent zoom lens!!! No amount of money can buy you one of those for a Canon or Nikon...simply does not exist! Another thoughtful feature is the manual aperture ring on the zoom...it's nice and thick,well placed and gives you the feeling that you're using a camera designed FOR photographers...sooo nice! Just leave it in the "A" position if you want to shoot in full auto though. And for you video guys...You can "Unclick" the ring for smooth,totally silent fades...sooo kick-ass!!! I suspect quite a few working Pros will be buying these as a back-up still cam or a "B" cam for video shoots,but, the reality is,this camera can go toe-to-toe with any APSC or M4/3 camera out there for still or video work...the FX/FF bodies may have an advantage image quality wise but the RX-10 will match even THEM feature set wise! Keep in mind that this sensor is being used in Sony's $3000 video cams...it's no slouch folks! So...Is it the perfect camera??? Well...it won't fit in your jeans pocket...but considering it's features...it's amazingly compact...a parka pocket,Yes! Some peeps complain about the zooms motor speed...it's a huge piece of glass folks...if you use the rocker switch to zoom,I find it very,very satisfying. The Macro could be better but,it's still a pretty good close focuser. It's a bit expensive on the surface...but if you can find one in the $800 or below price point,it becomes an insane bargain IMHO. If you are not a Pro wildlife or Sports Photog,there are not many assignments this camera couldn't cover. It's good...really good! Look...I'll still keep my Panny Lumix GM-1 with my PanaLeica 25mm 1.4...I'm completely in love with that combo as a street shooter and portrait set-up...but that combo doesn't have a hot shoe,weather proofing,tilt-screen or Mic/Headphone-in sooo,the RX-10 will also be in my bag 100% of the time...between the two of them...I'm in camera heaven:^)) I'm gonna' go take some picture now.......................Read full review

It undoubtedly was a great camera when it came out but not any more. Being able to shoot at high ISOs is so not true.. The images come out horribly pixilated. Focusing is a little slow. The electronic view finder is adequate. I wanted to get it because of the 2.8 Zeiss lens, but I have yet to be impressed by image quality. Thank goodness I didn't invest much money because I picked up a used RX10 in very good condition. I'm keeping it as a backup camera in case something happens to my wonderful Canon EOS 6D.

I am an outdoor writer and also have two boys in various sports. The RX-10 takes fantastic nature shots, and is well capable of capturing fast-action scenes as well. Low light shots are terrific too. The Zeiss lens is hard to beat for clarity. Think of the RX-10 as a bridge camera that can do everything a top-end SLR can do...but you don't need a bunch of different (expensive) lenses to get the job done! Love this camera!

After using the RX10 a couple years ago I found that it was one of my favorite cameras. Keeping up with technology and features I tried the Sony a6300, Panasonic Z1000,Panasonic Z2500,and the Sony RX100MK IV. None of them could check all the boxes to match the RX10 MK II. Some of the most important features I was looking for was, HSS on and off camera , slow motion , smooth zoom, nice grip and bright lens with fast focus. Another fantastic feature is the downloadable in camera apps . I love the timelapse ,multi-exposure, motion shot and touchless shutter apps. There is about 20+ apps available ,some free and some that cost a small fee. Once purchased you can use that app on other Sony cameras like the a6000,a6300 or RX100 series.

It takes sharp pictures. It has a variety of settings and once you get to know them it's a lot of fun shooting not only great quality pictures but 4K video as well. Love this camera. It's a great choice for anyone who doesn't like changing lenses. It has one lens from wide angle to 200 mm. I did have a Nikon with several lenses and I found that all I needed was one lens that would go from wide angle to zoom. That's a great feature of the Sony rx10m2, one fixed lens.
