The editors liked
The RX100 III is the the best point-and-shoot with a zoom lens. The photos and video are beautiful. The camera's even easier to use now
Large bestinclass sensor
Fast lens with wide aperture all the way through
Fast shooting

What we didn't
Complex for first timers
No hot shoe
No touchscreen
Expensive
Killer feature
Exceptional image and video quality fo
Powerful 1-inch CMOS Sensor
Good image quality in almost all settings
The presence of an EVF
The editors didn't like
The viewfinder is a tad clumsy and very small. The Mark III is pricey
A point-and-shoot isn't for pros
And $800 is lot to ask of the casual photographer
Or even the more serious photog looking for a secondary camera
Good sensor captures plenty of detail, Built-in EVF and flash, Hinged screen
NFC is cumbersome, Focus wasn't always on point
Even though the RX100 III packs a viewfinder, flash, and hinged screen, it's still small enough to fit in a pants pocket. Best of all, its image quality is excellent...
Photo Review was late receiving a review unit, which meant there were other reviews and comments in online forums available to use for comparison. It seems the universal opinion of Sony's RX100 Mark III is that it's the best performing and most versatile ...

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
The camera shuts down when you retract the viewfinder, the autofocus system could be more consistent, and it has poor battery life
The Sony Cyber-shot RX100 III is an overall great camera that delivers significant improvements over the RX100 II, but not everyone will think it's worth the extra cost....
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
Expensive but good: the Sony RX100 Mk III.Converging Verticals Phobia is a deep, irrational abhorrence of distorted vertical perspective. For some reason we don't feel the same about converging horizontals – train tracks merging to a point in the distance...

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.
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

EVF builtin, Respected sensor, Bionz X processing engine
Screen not touchsensitive, Reduced zoom range
As usual, we want to get our hands on a full-production sample RX100 III before we pass judgement on it, but I think it's a pretty safe bet that it's going to be a good performer. Sony has kept all the good points of the RX100 II and has made some reques...
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 ask...

Superb image and video quality, Pocket-sized, Great build and features
Pricy, Short optical zoom range
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 hand, you're currently compact-bereft and looking for the b...
Great image quality, very pocketable, popup EVF is impressive
Pricey
The RX100 Mark 3 is certainly one of the best compacts on the market right now — image quality is very good and the pop-up EVF is actually a cool feature that is actually quite useful.The EVF will also turn heads when you pop it up. I’ve had many friends...
Takes great photos, especially macro shots and portraits, Easy to use share features
Price
With the RX100 MkIII, Sony has proven again that compact cameras can compete with flashier competition. The price point might be an issue for many, but as far as we're concerned, there aren't many compact cameras out there that can do what it can.(previo...
