The latest addition to Sony's RX10 fixed-lens long-zoom series of cameras, the Cyber-shot DSC-RX10 III replaces the 24-200mm (equivalent) zoom lens in the RX10 II with a new Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* 8.8-220mm f/2.4-4 lens that covers a wide, 25x optical zoom range equivalent to 24-600mm in 35mm format.

I bought this to complement my M4/3 ILC kit. I thought it would save a lot of lens changing so I could keep my big zoom on my Olympus OM-D E-M1 II. When I decided to do a Kenyan safari I decided the Sony would probably manage everything on its own to keep luggage down, and it did so magnificently.

As an enthusiastic amateur photographer, I initially found the array of options and settings etc. seriously challenging, but with some close set up and use of automatic settings I have found this camera to be great to use and the results have been stunningly excellent.

"I've now put 10,000km and over 7,000 frames on my RX10iii to Iceland and back and through the hills and dales of England for 5 weeks _ with its fast, sharp, almost distortion-free 24-600mm lens, this camera does it all.
