EVF builtin
Respected sensor
Bionz X processing engine
The RX100MKIII is a considerable improvement on the already great previous models. Image quality remains the class leader with RAW output producing exceptional photo quality. High ISO settings can be used without noise being an issue.
A great electronic viewfinder that doesn't increase the size of the svelte Sony Cyber-shot RX100 III is one of the camera's highlights. Plus it offers excellent performance
Photo and video quality
Good sensor captures plenty of detail
Built-in EVF and flash
Hinged screen
Excellent and fast 24600mm lens
Superb stills and video quality
High quality EVF and tilting LCD screen
Excellent high ISO performance
The editors didn't like
Screen not touchsensitive
Reduced zoom range
VERDICT
This camera has been designed by photographers and engineers and not by the marketing department. The short zoom will be offputting for nondiscerning customers
But those who know about these things see a lens that has the same focal length range
The price is high for a compact
Even one as good as this. There are compact system cameras that cost less and have the versatility of interchangeable lenses. The Australian price is much higher than US street prices
The camera shuts down when you retract the viewfinder

Abstract: The RX100 III shares the same back-illuminated 1in type / 20.1 Megapixel sensor as the RX100 II, although couples it with the latest BIONZ X processor. The 1in type sensor may be smaller than Micro Four Thirds or APS-C sensors, but crucially sports around...

Although it looks expensive and the optical quality isn't perhaps quite what it could be, particularly with regard to sharpness and chromatic aberration, given the small size and inherent portability, the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 II a very satisfying and...
Screen not touch-sensitive, restricted zoom range, Two step EVF activation
Sony is continuing a trend set with the RX100 and RX100 II, seeing the RX100 series as the compact camera for those stepping up from a smartphone or basic compact, the RX 100 II being for those who want something a little more and better image quality. Th...
Excellent and fast 24, 600mm lens, Superb stills and video quality, High quality EVF and tilting LCD screen, Excellent high ISO performance
Pricey compared to the competition, Poor autofocus at longer focal lengths, Relatively large and heavy
The RX10 III's 24-600mm Zeiss lens, coupled with Sony's excellent 1-inch sensor, deliver class-leading image quality. Its 4K and HD video functionality is also superb. It's a large, relatively heavy and pricey camera though, and is let down by its autofoc...
Huge zoom range, Excellent photo and video performance, HFR is brilliant fun
Expensive, Bulky for a bridge camera
There's really no point drawing this conclusion out: the RX10 II was a fantastic camera, and the III edition does nothing but improve upon it. This latest version is one of the best all-rounders I've ever seen, capable of handling everything you could as...
High-quality lens with extremely useful zoom range, Superb sensor produces fine stills and high-quality video, Very effective image stabilisation system, Broad range of pro-oriented video specs, Wi-Fi easy to set up and works well
Expensive, Max aperture of f/4 at 100mm, No built-in ND filter, Menu system not as intuitive as could be, Purple fringing and blooming evident in some areas
The RX10 III rounds off an impressive trilogy of cameras from Sony, and it is difficult to come away from using it and feel underwhelmed. Although it covers much the same territory as the RX10 II, the increase in focal range over previous models changes i...

Abstract: Sony RX100 III – a compact camera for enthusiasts who require photos. The Sony RX100 III fits in a pocket but offers unique benefits of an advanced camera. It has bright lens, folding screen to give us a selfie and emerging electronic viewfinder. It also...

Superb image and video quality, Pocket-sized, Great build and features
Pricy, Short optical zoom range
Sony Cyber-shot RX100 III verdict Open Gallery If you already own a great premium compact camera (such as one of the other RX100 models) then there may not be quite enough here to warrant what would be an expensive update. But if, on the other h...

The third generation of the RX series is better than ever. Sony has extended the RX100M3 to meaningful innovations such as the viewfinder. For the hot shoe had to give way, but very few photographers have probably used the expensive Sony viewfinder or a s...
