No weather sealing; Poor noise control; AF not good in low light; Battery life is just ok; Pricey

Best on the market right now!

When I heard that Sony had finally added a touch screen and longer zoom to their ultimate compact, I immediately got on the notification list. On paper, the RX100 VI seems like a home run, and for the price, it should be. My experience - and results - have been mixed...

Sony's latest wunder-compact, the RX100 VI manages to mix true pocketability with a range of powerful high-end features. But it all comes at one hell of price - £1,150 to be exactly.

High image quality from one-inch sensor; Tilting touch-sensitive screen; 4K video

Very high price; Slightly awkward handling; Limited zoom range

A great point and shoot camera with an 8x zoom that allows you to shoot from further away, but definitely take an extra battery if you wish to shoot for long hours.

Compact; Great pop-up viewfinder

Short battery life; Price; Limited touchscreen

If you're looking for an ultra-compact camera that can deliver great-looking photos and video in almost any situation, and you're willing to pay a big premium for that, this is the model you should consider first.

Tiny size considering its 1in sensor; Superb photo and video quality; Fast and accurate autofocus; Useful pop-up viewfinder; Sturdy metal body;

It’s very expensive; Small buttons might irritate some; New zoom limits maximum aperture at longer focal lengths;

While it’s probably the best travel compact on the market, you have to really want a compact camera to spend almost £1200/$1200 on it. The RX100 VI has a heck of a lot going for it, but it’s probably quite hard to justify the cost.

Stunning image quality ; Lovely build ; Excellent AF ;

Battery drains quite quickly ; It’s so expensive;

There are so many great things about the Sony RX100 VI, but before you go into a dizzying spell of lust where it seems like nothing will become between you and the thing you so much desire, let’s talk about its flaws. The lack of mic port is an oversight, especially considering all the great video features. And with the aperture now starting at f/2.8 as opposed to f/1.8, it’s not going to perform wonderfully in low light. What’s more, it’s not even slightly weather-proof. However, not only does it hit the right design notes, it shoots a staggering 24 fps at full resolution and has an AF faster than you can blink. The tilting screen makes it mega handy for taking subtle close-up street scenes, and it’ll be just as good at sweeping landscapes, making it truly an all-rounder. And one last but crucial point is that honking great big zoom, which is truly a modern marvel for something so teeny. It’s the camera that you can find space for, not matter how much stuff you’re carrying. It’ll do so much of the grunt work with its demonly fast autofocusing, so you can enjoy your holiday and just take great photos. Photos that will look head, shoulders, knees and toes better than anything you’ll shoot from your smartphone.
