    Sony Original RX1 vs RX1r2 rendering, which is better?

    You don't know you need it until you have it :) There is a drawback with 42mp in that you need slightly more technique to be sharper at the pixel level, but when it works it's tremendous I do agree with you about the M8 and to a certain extent the M9. They had a contrast fall off that was very...

    Sony Original RX1 vs RX1r2 rendering, which is better?

    Late to this thread :) I think there is a common misconception when going to higher resolution. I know that Canon 5D users complained about the Mark ii being less sharp and poppy, the Nikon D700 users complained about the D800 and the Leica M9 users complained about the 240. Essentially the...

    Sony RX1 / R Firmware update!

    Its correct and right to point out that Sony does indeed update firmware. However it tends to do so for bug fixes. Very occasionally for new functionality but it tends to focus its R&D on a product as a whole rather then split its R&D too much between old and yet-to-be-released products Its...

    Sony RX100 III or G7X?

    Thanks Ray. Very clear. Especially your individual points such as exposure compensation. I'll take a look again before making a decision

    Sony RX100 III or G7X?

    Ray, you seem to prefer the Canon Is there anything specific that you can point to in handling ? I have looked at both and the Sony seems nicer and more refined The Canon just seems to be thrown into an S120 body with a long lens added (aka RX100 version i), but since its soft at the long end...

    Sony RX100 II or GM1

    Just an update I sold the GM1. Just couldn't get on with two things, the handling, particularly the design of the touch screen (terribly annoying, always moving focus point by mistake) and the DR - once used to Sony, difficult to change. I have pre-ordered the RX100 III - fingers crossed rgds

    Sony Showcase RX1 Images

    I also bought the Nikon Df. The Nikon f1.8G range is fabulous. However I just couldn't get on with the size of the DSLR again. The RX1 is really fabulous. So many years on and there is still nothing to compete with 35mm f2, pocket size and silent shutter with the most fabulous IQ. I am camped...

    Sony RX100 II or GM1

    many thanks all I have gone for the GM1 as I actually bought one cheaper then a RX100 ii and it seems to have more possibilities I also liked the manual zoom. Better for speed of operation and also subtlety in certain environments. Interestingly the RX100 is slightly more pocketable then the...

    Sony RX100 II or GM1

    Deciding between these two cameras. I want something pocket sized and silent (i.e. electronic shutter) with some zoom range Interchangeable lenses is nice but not a decider. I am more interested in IQ. So far I see that the GM1 has a 0.5 stop noise advantage and the RX100 has a 0.7 stop...

    Leica Leica XVario available in silver now!

    Its a question of whether you buy cameras on specs or results The X-vario results can't be argued with. Really spectacular across colours, pop (whatever that is) and sharpness then anything I have seen from a Fuji zoom, for example. And quite unusual to have that across 28-70mm and at all...

    Sony back from trip and innitial RX1 feedback...

    My goodness Ray Never tagged you for a Dfer!! I am using an A7 with glee but have a RX1 for those silent, subtle light moments that no other camera really hits the spot for. I have given up on the idea of one camera for everything!

    My tribute video to the now-closed melt shop (the steel mill where I worked)

    I would personally change the music, something slower, sadder and a bit demonic. It sounded more like a promotional video. Some of the pictures and video are really strong. Great work!

    Ricoh GR, Sony Rx1, Nikon V1 in New York

    Looking at work like Vivian Maier's is enjoyable. I realised as I looked through that, perhaps to people at the time, although well framed, they might have had similar reactions to "street" today., but looking back they are a lovely record of life in that era. I guess in 100 years folk will...

    Ricoh GR, Sony Rx1, Nikon V1 in New York

    thanks interesting perspective. Increasing picture quality comes with increasing work, but I love that and the RX1 would be, and is, my choice. The Ricoh looks amazing value for money though, very nice pictures, and the Nikon is surprising good, although it does start to have the "compact"...

    Sony RX1r vs A7r

    The RX1(R) is a unique proposition that compliments interchangeable solutions. No interchangeable solution of the same quality is likely to ever come near to its size. Its "silent" shooting nature is also unique, although in the future that gap could be closed by the A7.1 !!!! Lastly, there are...

    Sony How come the RX1 depreciates so much in value?

    depreciation matters less the longer you use something if you use for 2 years and loose £500 per year that could be quite acceptable. the good news about the RX1(R) is that it is quite unique. Its unlikely that you will rush to change it. The shutter is silent, the detail is massive, the...

    Nex 6 with Zeiss 24mm f1.8 vs RX1

    To be honest with RAW files this good to work with it's all splitting hairs. I would go with the Nex here. If I was rich enough I would take both. If I never wanted to change lens it would be a harder decision. Both cameras demonstrate the quality if Sony's camera division these days.
