What's up everybody? I want to do a video today and talk a little bit about the

0:03.0

Sony ARX 100 Mark 4 which was just released. This was announced a few weeks ago

0:07.3

and as many of you know I've been such a huge fan of the last version of the Mark 3.

0:11.3

I bought it I guess in February and since it has pretty much become my

0:15.2

go-to camera for traveling when I'm shooting in situations where I don't want to draw a lot of
