The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 is a compact point-and-shoot 20.2 mega-pixel camera. Part of the Cyber-shot line of digital cameras made by Sony. It has been named as the 'European Advanced Compact Camera for 2012–2013' by the European Imaging and Sound Association (EISA). [1] It has also been named one of the Best Inventions of 2012 by TIME. [2]

Notable features [edit]

  • 1" 15.86*13.20mm CMOS 'Exmor' sensor, with a 2.7× crop factor which uses the "Column-Parallel A/D Conversion Technique" to create higher detail images in very low light conditions. [3]
  • 10 fps at 20.2MP.
  • Very fast auto focus in low light, for a point-and-shoot camera.
  • Tilt-able pop-up flash, so light can bounced off, instead of a direct flash.
  • Fast and bright variable aperture, F1.8-F4.9 Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* lens.[4]
  • Focus peaking.
  • 3.6× optical zoom Carl Zeiss T* Vario Sonnar lens (28–100mm focal length range)
  • 3" TFT LCD with 1.29Million Dots, using RGBW coding with WhiteMagic

  • Two Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100s
