Pros and cons

According to our compact camera expert

The 1-inch Exmor R CMOS sensor combined with the BIONZ X processor gives you clear and razor-sharp pictures.
Use the RX10 in different conditions, thanks to the zoom range of the 24-200mm lens.
Thanks to the dust and moisture proof seams and a sturdy magnesium allow casing, the camera can withstand various weather conditions.
The large sensor and sizable zoom lens make the RX10 a big camera, comparable to a small DSLR.
When using the WiFi function, your battery will drain faster. Having an extra battery is recommended.

Description

The Sony CyberShot DSC-RX10 is the big brother of the RX100 and the RX100II, and has a good number of interesting specifications. For example, this camera has a 1-inch Exmor R CMOS sensor and a BIONZ X processor, allowing you to take razor-sharp and clear pictures. It has an aperture of f/2.8 over the entire range of 24-200mm, so that you can use it in many different situations and lighting conditions. The high-quality Zeiss T* coated lens makes the DSC-RX10 comparable to the quality of an SLR lens, but in a more compact design. Connect the RX10 to your smartphone or tablet via WiFi and NFC to upload pictures or videos directly to YouTube or social media.

Sony DSC-RX10

2.8/24-200mm Zeiss zoom lens of excellent quality.
build quality (magnesium body, dust and splash proof
good viewfinder and monitor
see review

When I saw the announcement of the Sony RX10 I immediately thought: that will be my camera! Beautiful design, professional build, and above all: a zoom lens from Zeiss with an ideal range of 24-200 mm with a constant brightness of 2.8 and a sensor that is about 4 times the size of a regular compact camera, the same size as that of the Nikon 1 series system camera. Ok, that is smaller than that of my Nikon SLR, but in the Sony RX 100 II it had already received a lot of praise. Despite the not sick price, I decided to buy it anyway. Justly! Let me start with a few noted drawbacks:

I miss a decent paper manual instead of hundreds of pages online.
a separate battery charger is missing
zooming in and out is slow. A mechanical transmission would be better
for the time being you cannot open the RAW images in, for example, Lightroom. We have to wait for the next update, the RAW converter from Sony is very basic. But what a camera! The beautiful and bright Zeiss lens delivers razor-sharp and clear photos with the sensor and the new Bionz-X processor. The image noise is really low for this sensor size: up to ISO 1600 there is no (disruptive) image noise. Awesome. The camera is beautifully finished and fits well in the hand. The thick lens helps with this. The autofocus works smoothly, the operation is largely done with easily accessible buttons, so that you do not have to enter the menu every time. There is a nice aperture ring on the lens (seems like old times) and exposure correction takes place with its own wheel. Perfect. In addition to a nice clear folding monitor, there is also a surprisingly large and useful electronic viewfinder. He also seems to be good at filming, but that is not of interest to me and I have not tried it. If you want a camera that has everything as standard and don't want to "hassle" with changing lenses, then this long-range Sony RX10 is the best you can buy. Ok, it's not cheap, but as far as I'm concerned it's completely worth its price. In the few weeks that I've had it now, I notice that I leave my SLR at home more and more.

Fantastic camera!

Design and operation
High-quality Carl Zeiss lens
ease of use.
No external battery charger included

I have owned the Sony RX10 for a few months now alongside a Nikon D7100. Also played with me that I saw this bridge camera, I must have this one. What a fantastic camera and I am somewhat surprised by the few user reviews that can (yet) be read about this RX10. The price? Well, it's not cheap to buy. But considering that you get a lot of camera in return, it is more than worth a purchase. What is the advantage of this camera compared to, for example, a reflex. Because that advantage is definitely there. Shooting with this Sony leads to razor-sharp and beautiful photos with fewer settings and hassle. Partly due to the beautiful Carl Zeiss lens. It is almost impossible to go wrong, the autofocus, focus, it all works very well. In all circumstances this is a top and above all easy to operate camera. In practice, therefore, I tend to go more for the Sony than for the Nikon D7100. With an SLR camera such as a Nikon D7100, you are sometimes wrong when it comes to taking a good photo. This is much less the case with the RX10. I bought the beautiful and compact Sony HVLF20M.CE - Flash. it finishes the camera.

Another real Sony camera

Solid housing
Fantastic Zeiss lens
Just a Super Camera
Moderate Manual

I bought the RX10 as a replacement for a Canon 400D body with a Sigma 18-200mm DC OS HSM lens. This combination started to weigh me down with about 1200 grams. At 830 grams, the RX10 is pleasantly lighter in weight. The specifications of the lens and sensor were decisive. I am not disappointed.

I experience the image quality of the RX10 as equivalent or better to that of the aforementioned Canon combination. At the low ISOs, the RX10 even seems to have the advantage with a new trick with which they accentuate details in the light parts. At the higher ISOs, the image quality up to ISO 1600 is the same as far as I'm concerned, only the flash function does not yet work as I would like.

The lens seems to draw a bit sharper than the aforementioned Sigma lens and clearly less sensitive to ghost images in backlight. I find the viewfinder a feast compared to the viewfinder of an SLR, much brighter. I experience the operation of the RX10 as smooth. Bracketing is modern fast, the camera is then busy processing the shots.

A downside is the lack of a good manual. What did Sony think about that? There is now an online manual that offers some extras compared to what is in the box. It is also advised to consult the manual of the RX100. The camera feels solid, but due to the short experience I can't really make a statement about it yet.
