The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 doesn't come cheap, but it looks great and produces consistently first-class stills. Low-light performance can't be faulted, colour reproduction is excellent and movies are crisp, with a well-captured soundtrack. This is the best compact you can buy right now.
Pros:
- Excellent stills
- Impressive low-light results
- Accurate colour reproduction
- Large sensor
- Movie mode
- Wide aperture lens
- Versatile control ring
Cons:
- Some wind noise on movies
- Control ring can be a little slow
- No bundled battery charging cradle
- Extremely pricey

For those looking for a back-up camera for when the DSLR is too bulky or inconvenient, Sony has produced a truly great camera that should also appeal to anybody wanting to trade up from a mobile phone or budget compact camera.

Sony DSC-RX100 Review
The Sony DSC-RX100 is by no means a DSLR replacement, but it is definitely a strong companion for those who are used to DSLR-like quality and features. There's a lot to love about the RX100 like the compact form factor, the control ring on the lens, the fast aperture and the larger than usual...
Pros:
- Compact form factor
- Large 1-inch sensor for great image quality
- Fast f/1.8 aperture allows low light shooting
- Excellent Build Quality
Cons:
- Lack of ergonomic grip
- Control ring doesn't have stops
- so rotating it feels a little arbitrary
- No hot shoe for external flash
- No optical viewfinder

Sony's high-end RX100 has been hailed as the best compact digital camera of all time and, well, we can see the appeal.
The phrase "DSLR-quality image" is bandied about too often in the world of compact cameras, in marketing materials, on retail boxes, and even within some independent reviews. These claims are almost always accompanied by qualifiers and caveats, and disappointment follows.
