Sony Cybershot DSC-RX100 V
The fifth generation in the popular Sony RX100 series offers improved hardware and support for 4K recordings.
The 20 MP camera sensor remains the same, but the image processor is more powerful than previous generations.
Sony Cybershot DSC-RX100 V is a compact camera that easily fits in your pocket. It carries a rather high price tag, but Sony still offers good value for money.

My return to Sony Cybershot
Ive had 3-4 Cybershots in the past, and always liked them. Got on the Lumix train, and am quite fond of those but this Cybershot RX-100VA caught my eye and checked most of the right boxes this time.
Pros:
- Image quality Easy navigate menus On-board menu descriptions/interface Easy wi-fi transfers Reputation of the entire RX series
Cons:
- Battery life No touch screen In-cam battery charging Very minimal included (printed) documentation Should include the optional rubber "grip" which Ive since added
- as standard (come on Sony...seriously

Serious side piece
Personally prefer the five over the six. 1.8 is more important to me than 200mm. For what I want to do with it, quick pictures and video, I can just walk closer if I need the zoom. Speed > zoom imo. The pictures are sharp. The video is impressive. RAW with manual settings capability is important.

A pocket sized powerhouse
I'd been having an argument with myself about buying one of these for many months and, now I have taken the plunge, I couldn't be more happy. It's reasurringly weighty and oozes quality. I've only tried a few of the function so far, but the pictures have been excellent.

I bought this camera at the Downtown location in Toronto. The sales guy was really good, not an expert for this model but solid overall knowledge about the 1 inch cameras. I have been using the full frame cameras(Canon) for years and carried my camera bag all over the world.

Superb bit of kit
I was looking for the best premium compact on the market and all the online reviews pointed to the Sony RX100 V it's a superb bit of kit. Factor in you will need a case, spare battery and a screen protector and you won't get much change from a grand. That been said there isn't a better compact.

The camera that does it all
Only have had this camera for a few weeks but have yet to find anything I don't like about it. I've been a Canon person for many years and DSC-RX100 V has replaced my Canon G5X, which I really liked, but damaged it after a long hard drop to the pavement.

Sony Cyber-shot RX100 V review
The RX100 V is one of the most advanced compacts we've seen, with a specification dripping with advanced features that would shame some pricier mirrorless and DSLR cameras. This isn't entirely a good thing however – the RX100 V is almost too advanced for its own good, and you have to question how...
Pros:
- Built-in EVF
- 24fps burst shooting
- 315-point AF system
- Excellent image quality
- Advanced 4K video
Cons:
- Some handling issues
- No touchscreen
- Pricey compared to rivals
