Summary

The Sony DSC-RX100 Mark III is the third iteration in the compact line from Sony. Its an amazing little camera that performs impressively well. I've been wanting a camera for a while that would give me the best tradeoff of portability and customization. I obviously do a lot of video as well as stills so versatility is important to me as well. I didn't think I was going to find something that would work - I was wrong. The Sony RX100 Mark III is a compact, point and shoot camera. It has a fixed Zeiss Vario-Sonnar (24-70mm equivalent), 20.1 MP sensor and uses the Sony BIONZ X Image processor and a popup OLED electronic viewfinder. It records HD video with Sony's new XAVC-S higher data-rate codec. Both video and stills look amazing. In this video I'll show you some sample images and video footage and show you how the RX100 iii performs in low light.

0:00.0	Welcome back to the art of photography everybody. My name is Ted Forbes.
0:02.6	Since we're talking a lot about cameras this week, I want to include one more that I got recently.
0:07.2	And I was in the market about a month ago for a compact point and shoot camera.
0:11.6	And the reason I wanted a point and shoot
0:13.6	is because I wanted something that I didn't have
0:15.8	to have a camera bag to take around
0:17.6	that would still do exceptional quality, stills,
0:20.0	and video.
0:20.7	I shoot a lot of video as well, probably as much as I do with stills. And so it was really important to find something in a small form factor that I could use for that
0:27.3	that would still deliver a high quality and so I ended up deciding on the Sony
0:31.1	Rx 100 Mark 3.
0:33.1	The reason I'm not holding the camera up right now
0:35.1	is I'm actually shooting on it right now.

0:40.9	Also, most of you know that I'm not a huge camera review guy and I'm not going to sit here
0:45.3	and go through charts and stuff with you guys I just want to give you some
0:47.6	practical use if you're interested in a couple other people who have reviewed
0:50.8	this camera it's been out for about a year now. I will put
0:53.5	some links in the show notes. Eric Rossi did a really good review that I
0:56.4	watched actually before I bought the camera and I think that's a really good one
0:59.6	to start with and also the guys over at the Camera Store TV do a pretty in-depth review of a lot of the features on this camera.
