When a scene contains a lot of variation in tone like a sunlit leaves or or a colourful umbrella the camera actually produces very nice results. When you have a lot of low contrast surfaces and subtle variations in tone are required like with skin for instance, the results are just horrible – plastic, waxy and video-like. I am really starting to notice when a camera serves up a brittle little thin compressed video clip. Sometimes you can’t tell the RX100 III apart from the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera…īut sometimes it is night and day different. The limitations it has as a creative tool are merely part of the parcel of it being what it is! Although the RX100 II is a big improvement on the previous model, it now inhabits a world where we get 10bit ProRes for $999 and 14bit raw video recording on Canon DSLRs like the 7D. The RX100 III is a consumer compact camera that reaches very high in terms of the features but it is still a consumer compact camera. The EVF is 800 x 600 (1.4m dots) and similar quality to RX10.

It records files at 720p in 120fps and you must conform in post to get slow-mo. I wish my RX1 had a built in ND filter.ġ20fps (useful for slow-mo) is surprisingly good though it does entail a crop and softer detail, it does not significantly increase any moire and aliasing. The new built in ND filter is as welcome for stills at F1.8 as it is for video with a shallower depth of field, because the leaf shutter only goes to 1/2000 leaving even raw stills at ISO 200 over exposed in strong sunlight when shooting wide open.

Compare this to the main things the RX100 M2 added over the first model.

Despite appearances the third RX100 is no incremental update.
