Sony RX1 (left) Compared to Sony RX100 (right)
The Sony RX100 is hands-down the best pocket zoom camera you can buy right now. Sony knocked it out of the park with a 20MP 1″ CMOS sensor and 1080/60p video capture in a camera that fits in your jeans pocket. [click to continue…]

The Sony Cyber-shot RX100 is a 20MP point and shoot camera. But this isn’t just any point and shoot camera. The RX100 sets itself apart from every other compact camera out there thanks to a much larger image sensor, which measures the same size as the Nikon 1 Series mirrorless camera system. Somehow, Sony managed to cram that sensor into a pocketable digicam.
Read on to find out if that big sensor combined with the rest of the RX100 features is enough to make this camera the king of pocket cams. [click to continue…]

I’ve got a review coming for the compact Sony RX100 soon (spoiler: it’s awesome), but I wanted to go ahead and pass along some sample images from the camera that I’ve been sitting on for a while. Check them out below. [click to continue…]

It looks like Canon may be announcing a true successor to the PowerShot G12 next week prior to Photokina 2012. Recall that the Canon G1 X was announced earlier this year at CES 2012, causing speculation that the G-series may move to a larger sensor format.
The above leaked image appears to confirm, however, that the more compact-oriented camera line will continue with a PowerShot G15. [click to continue…]

Clearly styled after the RX100, the upcoming Sony RX1 has leaked out ahead of its expected announcement later this week.
The Sony RX1 is expected to sport a full frame 24MP sensor (likely the same sensor inside the Sony A99), a Zeiss 35mm f/2 fixed lens, and a price tag of $2799. [click to continue…]

I have been using the Sony RX100 for about a week now and I have to say that it is a stunning little camera. It packs 20MP CMOS image sensor and the fixed zoom lens provides 28-100mm equivalent zoom range with a max f/1.8 aperture.
The RX100 gives a proper use of that little 2.7x crop sensor that’s also found in the Nikon 1 Series. And, best of all, it’s a pocketable camera. [click to continue…]
