The Sony RX100 VII is the seventh generation of Sony's premium compact camera RX100.
This camera looks like its predecessor the RX100 VI on the outside except for the extra interface ports. However, there are significant upgrades on the inside, like video usage. RX100 VII features a microphone jack to the delight of many consumers, which had requested this feature. Furthermore, it has no limits on continuous 4K video recording time, while its predecessor has a limit of 5 minutes recording.
There are some things that potential buyers should note when considering this camera. For example, it lacks a headphone jack. Touch-sensitivity doesn't work for menus and navigation. In addition, there's no Neutral Density (ND) filter and no place on the camera to mount a “not-so-portable” microphone.
Manufacturer: Sony
The RX100 VII is a delight of a camera and an easy recommendation to make. There’s nothing that compares in this size category in terms of the range of features, autofocus capabilities, video prowess and performance as a general all-rounder.
Not to be repetitive but this is the part of my reviews were I usually decry the lack of models who don‘t want to pose for studio portraits but nobody would ever, by any stretch of the imagination, consider the RX100 VII to be a portrait camera.
About as perfect as small-scale, high-end compact cameras get. If you can afford one, that is, as this has never been a budget series.

Battery doesn't last all that long; Shutter button needs more feedback/travel and buttons are too small; Zoom limits maximum aperture at longer focal lengths; It's really expensive;
