The big question is whether the RX100 III's extra features are worth a few hundred more dollars than its predecessors, which are now its main competitors. It really depends on your shooting style and your video needs.

Pound for pound, the best pocket camera available now; Outstanding photo and video quality for its size; The ultimate blend of features for any level of photographer; The only pocket camera with an electronic eye-level viewfinder

Costs as much as a DSLR; Tighter zoom range stops short of ultimate portrait territory; A step back in battery life as compared to previous models; Needs a certain storage card to use its best video mode

You won't be making movies with RX100 III, but it can shoot video that's perfectly fine for online posting. A clip of a piano player in the park shot at 1080p and 60 frames per second showed smooth movement, as you can see in people walking by in the background.

Lovely photos with plenty of detail; high-quality OLED viewfinder; clean low-light photos; solid, all-metal chassis; extremely compact

Sluggish autofocus; occasional autoexposre glitches; jerky HD video at 24fps; pricey

This camera was bought to be a companion to my existing camera equipment. It is capable of producing competition quality images and I predict that it will probably get more use than my cumbersome DSLR. However, it is seriously let down by the instruction manuals that Sony provide.
