But you feel so triumphant when you do actually find it. Its almost like cheat codes on old video game consoles.
I thought I could use it for my car pictures, but this drab device has no pop at all..... Wal Mart sells better stuff then this potato.

Super Control Panel on Olympus bodies. All the cool kids use them. :tongue:
Lucille, while I personally find the RX100 III images just ok .... and hey, I am one for pocket-ability, I just think your RX1 images prove how much the RX100 is lacking.
To the original poster, its possible your sample is not a good one - lens alignment or other problem. See if you can swap it for another.
The Rx100III sure doesn't have the pop of the Rx1, and yes the Rx1 blows the Rx100 away, as it should, but I personally love the goofyness (distortion) I get with the 24mm wide angle from the Rx100.. And for what it is in such a small package, it's images are quite nice, better then some of my older DSLR's.....
But if the ask me, I think the Rx1 makes all other cameras lacking......to me, the Rx1 at 35mm can't be beat by anything I have tried/used.
At one point I really wanted to go with an RX100 RX1 combo as my entire photography kit, but unfortunately I like to do things that those two wouldn't be enough for me. I don't know anyone with an RX1, so still haven't tried one... might rent one someday, or maybe just finally get the Zeiss 35 for my A7.
Fear of what you described is what's kept me from buying Sony cameras generally which I do realise is possibly wrong and definitely silly, particularly with their breathtaking specs and image making capabilities. In fact, it's a bit embarrassing in view of the wonderful images posted in this and other forums by people I respect that use Sony gear. But we are what we are I suppose.(Dons 3 layers of heat retardant clothing) I know this is an old thread but I am with Doug and Ray on this one only much, much more so.
I have the Mark 11 and I utterly, utterly loathe the soulless, joyless piece of crap and wish I'd never bought it.
I should have known better and not bought one really - every time I played around with one in a shop I hated how it looked, how it handled, the fiddly handling ... just everything.
I bought into the hype, a friend took an image in a disused building that made it look a bit of a magical camera and her enthusiasm made me decide to give it a go. What a monumental waste of money it was for me.
I like buttons, dials and knobs. I like lots of manual controls and I love a dedicated exposure comp dial.
I went out a couple of weekends ago with my Fuji X10 and it really brought home to me how much enjoying using a camera mattered to me - the actual handling and made me realise how much I liked the X10 and how much I loathe the RX 100.
I have since treated myself to a Nikon P7700 and totally love it.
As others have said when one just doesn't gel with a camera - it's time to move on ... anyone in the UK want to buy an RX100 MK 11?
@ Lucille - you have certainly got some fantastic shots with yours - well done you. I wonder how much of that is also to do with your settings and any PP.
