Sony Cyber-shot RX100 IV review
It may seem that I've picked up on quite a few negatives here, but the RX100 IV is an excellent compact camera – and, crucially, it produces excellent images. And it would be easier to let those smaller niggles slide with a product which didn't come with such a high asking price, but they disappoint...

- Tilting screen

Sony RX100 IV Review
As you can see from this review, the Sony RX100 IV is a little powerhouse that is not only capable of delivering outstanding image quality for its sensor size, but also superb 4K and slow motion video.

The RX100 VI is something of a departure for the RX100 series: offering a more extensive zoom range but giving up some of its large sensor's low light ability by pairing it with a less bright lens.
Pros:
- Anyone needing fast AF
- good video
- sharp images and a flexible zoom range in a pocket-sized package
Cons:
- Anyone seeking the best possible image quality in dim light or with moving subjects

Sony Cyber-shot DSC RX100 VI review
The RX100 VI is a very capable camera, combining a flexible zoom range with impressive autofocus. However, the small maximum aperture required to keep the size down limits the image quality in some situations. The relatively high price means you have to really want its unequaled combination of capability and size.
Pros:
- Anyone needing fast AF, good video, sharp images and a flexible zoom range in a pocket-sized package.
Cons:
- Anyone seeking the best possible image quality in dim light or with moving subjects.

Sony Cyber-shot RX100 IV
The Sony Cyber-shot RX100 IV (M4) is less of an clear upgraade over its predecessor the RX100 III (M3) than a forked alternative; for a variety of reasons, I'd classify it as an advanced compact for video enthusiasts rather than a straight-up advanced compact, at least until the price drops a bit.
Pros:
- Great video features to supplement its 4K capabilities distinguish the Sony Cyber-shot RX100 IV from the rest of the advanced-compact pack
- It also retains the nice design perks, like a popup electronic viewfinder, of the earlier RX100 models
Cons:
- Like its predecessor
- the autofocus system could be more consistent and the battery life has gotten even worse
