The editors liked
The JPEG image quality is very good and
For those prepared to go the extra mile
The RAW pictures are stunning
The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 II delivers excellent photos
Speedy performance
And a broad feature set in an attractive
Compact package
Tilting screen
Full manual control
WiFi compatibility
Excellent lowlight performance
The editors didn't like
The tradeoff of the small
Pocketable form is that the various function buttons are tiny
But the lensconcentric adjustment ring compensates
The camera tends to clip bright highlights more than we typically see
And the slippery body lacks a grip. Plus
The lack of a manually triggered macro mode might put off some fans of close-up photography

It's worth re-stating that this is the best compact camera with an integrated zoom lens. You can find better performance with a fixed focal length compact like as the Ricoh GR for around $US800. If you don't mind bulky interchangeable lenses, the Sony NEX...
