From the manufacturer
Sony RX100 V Cyber-shot Digital Camera
Introducing a new level of AF performance and speed to today’s compact camera market. The RX100 V compact premium camera boasts an AF speed of 0.05 seconds, a continuous shooting speed of 24fps, and 315 AF points.
Features
|
|
|
---|---|---|
Bright F1.8-2.8 ZEISS Vario-Sonnar T lens (24-70mm)5The RX100 VA features a large aperture F1.8-2.8 ZEISS Vario-Sonnar T* lens with 24-70mm zoom (35mm equivalent). The lens is perfect for portraits and macro shots with beautiful defocused backgrounds (bokeh). Two aspherical lens elements are incorporated into the design to improve sharpness while the premium multi-layered T* coating also dramatically reduces ghost and flare caused by light reflection. |
Fast (0.05 sec.)2 hybrid AF system (contrast + phase)The RX100 VA brings a new level of AF performance and speed to compact cameras. It is equipped with a fast hybrid autofocus system – the world’s fastest1 - that combines the respective advantages of focal-plane phase detection AF and contrast detection AF that ultimately enables the camera to lock focus in as fast as 0.05 seconds2. 1 35mm format equivalent. 2 Among fixed lens digital cameras with 1” (1.0-type) sensor. As of June 2018 press release, based on Sony research. |
Wide coverage 315 phase detection AF pointsHigh speed focusing is a perfect complement to the dedicated 315 phase-detection AF points that covers approx. 65% of the image area of the sensor. With such wide-area high-density autofocus coverage, you can accurately focus on and capture your intended subject at high speed, even if it’s moving rapidly in unpredictable directions. |
Features
|
|
|
---|---|---|
High-density Tracking AF TechnologyThe RX100 VA employs Sony’s high-density tracking AF technology to ensure accurate, stable tracking performance throughout the 24-70mm1 range of the lens. This advanced technology leverages the benefits of focal-plane phase-detection sensors to concentrate AF points in a dense pattern around the subject location as its moving to keep subjects in continuous clear focus – even at high speeds. |
High-speed continuous shooting at 24fps4 with AF/AE trackingDesigned to allow for high resolution, continuous shooting at high frame rates the RX100 VA features a 1" Exmor RS stacked back illuminated CMOS sensor w/ DRAM and front-end LSI that works with the BIONZ X image processing engine to enable continuous shooting speed at impressive 24fps4 with AF/AE tracking at full 20.1MP resolution. Thanks to a large buffer, the RX100 VA can capture up to 233 images5 at this high speed which can be viewed immediately after shooting. Viewfinder blackout between shots has been minimized in this high-speed shooting mode, which greatly improves the ability to follow fast action and capture the decisive moment. |
1” (1.0-type) 20.1MP Exmor RS stacked back illuminated CMOS sensor w/ DRAMThis large 1” (1.0-type) stacked back illuminated Exmor RS image sensor with DRAM chip not only enhances efficiency and speed of A/D conversion through its stacked structure and more circuit sections; it also realizes super-fast readout speed. Together with the new BIONZ X image processing engine, it allows for stunning 20.1-megapixels at up to 24fps3 continuous shooting, blazingly fast shutter speed of up to 1/32000 sec., breathtaking 4k movie and super slow-motion HFR (High Frame Rate) movie clip recording of up to 960fps (40x), not to mention remarkable low-light capability with a wide sensitivity range (ISO 80-12,800)6 with reduced noise. |
Features
|
|
|
---|---|---|
Clip-4K movie7 w/ direct pixel readout, no pixel binningThe pocket-size RX100 VA features Clip 4K for short - up to 5 minute - 4K (QFHD:3840×2160) movie recording directly to SD memory card7 - ideal for everyday casual use. High quality 4k is achieved by the 1” Exmor RS CMOS sensor with full pixel readout and no pixel binning - resulting in images that exhibit higher resolution and less moire and jaggies than typical 4K movies. Moreover, the XAVC S format is incorporated to maximize high-bitrate shooting up to 100 Mbps for professional quality video. The focal plane phase detection AF system allows for fast hybrid AF during video and ensures accurate focusing and tracking performance, even for the severe focusing requirements of 4K movie shooting. AF drive speed and AF tracking sensitivity can also be adjusted via the menu system providing flexibility for focusing preferences. |
Optical SteadyShot Image stabilizationBuilt-in Optical SteadyShot image stabilization technology - developed exclusively by Sony - pre-vents image blurring that can occur from hand-held still and movie shooting, especially in low light or at the far telephoto end of the zoom range. Image stabilization is equivalent to a faster shutter speed of 4.0 stops8 at 70mm1 telephoto, and ensures smooth, stable framing and excellent image quality. |
Retractable OLED w/ EVF benefits and optical viewfinder immediacyThe new RX100 VA maintains the convenient pocket-sized design of the remainder of the RX100 family and is equipped with a high-contrast 2.35 million dot XGA OLED Tru-Finder electronic viewfinder, ensuring true-to-life image preview and playback functionality. The EVF conveniently retracts in and out of the camera body and features optics with ZEISS T coating that greatly reduces reflections. It has the ability to deliver continuous live shooting at up to 8fps - making it easy to track fast moving subjects. |
Features
|
|
|
---|---|---|
Advanced Eye AF ideal for portrait shotsThe Eye AF function has excellent tracking performance and a high degree of accuracy and stability as it automatically focuses on a subject’s eyes, even when the subject is looking down or away from the camera, or is in backlit scenes when the face of the subject is in partial darkness. |
High speed Anti-Distortion ShutterThe high speed – up to 1/32,000 sec. - Anti-Distortion Shutter, minimizes the “rolling shutter” effect commonly experienced with fast moving subjects. This blazingly fast shutter speed also allows the camera to capture sharp, crystal clear images with a wide open aperture at brightness levels. Shooting at wide aperture with fast shutter speed allows photographers and videographers to capture beautiful content with sharply focused subjects and defocused backgrounds under some of the most difficult, bright lighting conditions. FOOTNOTES: 1 35mm format equivalent. 2 Among fixed lens digital cameras with 1” (1.0-type) sensor. As of June 2018 press release, based on Sony research. 3 CIPA standard, internal measurement, at f=9.0mm (wide-end), EV6.9, Program Auto, Focus mode: AF-A, Focus area: Center. 4 With "Continuous shooting mode: Hi". 5 With "Continuous shooting mode: Hi" and "Image quality: Fine". |

(Maybe I should also preface this w/: this my 1st mirrorless camera, I'm a DSLR shooter, primarily photo's)
(My quality comparisons are coming from having a Canon 70D w/Sigma 18-35mm f/1.8)
My most used time with this: most footage ever recorded was from my 3 day trip on the Timberline Trail in Oregon. I came home with - 1hr 34min 44's of video. Total of 33.6GB of data. 175 video clips and about 15 photo's. Ran through the 3 batteries I took multiple times and only drained my 10,000 mah Anker to 50%, that is fantastic. Shooting only 1080p @30p 50mbps. Take that into consideration when looking at the battery life section.
I purchased this camera back in February of this year, specifically for backpacking vloggitty stuff, this camera is absolutely a winner. My review is mostly based on the video side of this camera, which IMO, is this camera primary use. (Note: I do not color grade the footage, I prefer the image SOOC, with manual controls, manual white balance.) First off this camera has the ability to shoot 4K at up to 30p 100mbps. The 4K image is stellar, sharp, very detailed and color is great. This camera does have the ability to shoot S-log which has pretty incredible dynamic range. 4K does have a 5 min limit, but personally with the way I film this is a non issue. Backpacking videos require video/clips no longer than a minute. I mainly shoot 1080p at 30p 50mbps, this footage is the easiest for me personally to work with. Even the 1080p image is very clear, I like the contrast this camera produces in video. No noticeable aliasing, very apparent w/my 70D. Again I'm a photographer 1st.
THINGS I LOVE:
Full manual controls:
I can control every setting I need to, shutter speed, aperture, ISO, WB and the ND filter, excellent.
Video image quality:
It's great, want an ex. Youtube: Backpacking the Timberline Trail: 40.4 Miles
Build quality:
This camera is mostly metal, built like a tank, protruding/telescoping lens is very delicate. 1 drop, game over.
Battery life:
Is a big one, not really sure which category this should go under. Really is goes under both. For me, this is not an issue.You can maybe get 20-30 min of total 1080p record time out of 1 battery. This is pretty close to what I've come to expect, which for how I use it, is excellent. On trail I would only go through about 2-3 batteries day. If i'm just going hiking I'm taking my full set-up, 10,000 mah Anker battery, 3 camera batteries (1 in the camera, 1 in my charger and 1 on standby ready to swap. Throw the battery in my camera into the charger, fresh battery in my camera, boom shooting again.)
Size/Form factor:
I love the size, it fits in my pa'lante packs shoulder strap pocket, will fit nicely in a coat pocket.
The JPEG's:

"This hurts to say I can't access these RAW files") I shoot with a Canon 70D, Sigma 18-35mm f/1.8 ART and 70-200mm f/2.8 IS II and Nikon D810 w/35mm & 85mm. My version of lightroom does not open them, 10 months later this is an issue, solely on my part, I do not use CC. Will be going to CC in the near future. With that all taken in to consideration, I have the jpg's, I edit the jpg's and they look pretty good, I guess, for a jpg. I do shoot this camera RAW+JPEG so when I figure out the problem, problem determined, I can unleash the full potential of the RAW files. (NOTE: all attached images are jpg's SOOC,that I then edited in lightroom.)
THINGS I DON'T LOVE:
The screen:
The screen itself is wonderful, ex. when vlogging w/ this camera, over time though the screen has developed a scratch line, horizontally, across the entire screen where a piece of metal sticks out. Doesn't affect camera usage but, the piece of metal serves zero function other than housing the release of the pop-up flash. Something to be aware of.
The bottom of the camera:
All plastic. One of the most, if not THE most, important parts of the camera, the battery door, is extremely thin, cheap and frankly crap quality. It has some play once opened, if it was in your pocket and not shut properly could snap off with ease. Take extreme caution w/ the battery door. The weight of the camera alone could snap it off.
Nitpicking:
The EVF, again, personally I do not use it, but could be better. The refresh rate inside in not very good, in real world use though, you will not really notice. Unless you use/coming from a higher end mirrorless.
Battery life:
Here's where battery life is laughable and really disappointing. If you shoot slo-mo, you shoot 4k or 1080p @120p the battery life in absolutely atrocious. You can expect a full, fresh battery to get you just maybe 10 min total record time of 4K, maybe 5-6 min of slo-mo (240p or 480p.) And 1080p @120p is much better but still probably less than 20 min.
Build quality:
I only mention this here, due to the delicate nature of the lens. When the lens is out, if you drop this camera, you just lost/wasted $999. Cannot stress this enough. When camera is off, folding screen tucked in and you drop it, it may survive.........once. Never dropped, I take extra care of this camera, but the potential in there
Any questions? Let me know.
Reviewed in the United States on November 9, 2017
(Maybe I should also preface this w/: this my 1st mirrorless camera, I'm a DSLR shooter, primarily photo's)
(My quality comparisons are coming from having a Canon 70D w/Sigma 18-35mm f/1.8)
My most used time with this: most footage ever recorded was from my 3 day trip on the Timberline Trail in Oregon. I came home with - 1hr 34min 44's of video. Total of 33.6GB of data. 175 video clips and about 15 photo's. Ran through the 3 batteries I took multiple times and only drained my 10,000 mah Anker to 50%, that is fantastic. Shooting only 1080p @30p 50mbps. Take that into consideration when looking at the battery life section.
I purchased this camera back in February of this year, specifically for backpacking vloggitty stuff, this camera is absolutely a winner. My review is mostly based on the video side of this camera, which IMO, is this camera primary use. (Note: I do not color grade the footage, I prefer the image SOOC, with manual controls, manual white balance.) First off this camera has the ability to shoot 4K at up to 30p 100mbps. The 4K image is stellar, sharp, very detailed and color is great. This camera does have the ability to shoot S-log which has pretty incredible dynamic range. 4K does have a 5 min limit, but personally with the way I film this is a non issue. Backpacking videos require video/clips no longer than a minute. I mainly shoot 1080p at 30p 50mbps, this footage is the easiest for me personally to work with. Even the 1080p image is very clear, I like the contrast this camera produces in video. No noticeable aliasing, very apparent w/my 70D. Again I'm a photographer 1st.
THINGS I LOVE:
Full manual controls:
I can control every setting I need to, shutter speed, aperture, ISO, WB and the ND filter, excellent.
Video image quality:
It's great, want an ex. Youtube: Backpacking the Timberline Trail: 40.4 Miles
Build quality:
This camera is mostly metal, built like a tank, protruding/telescoping lens is very delicate. 1 drop, game over.
Battery life:
Is a big one, not really sure which category this should go under. Really is goes under both. For me, this is not an issue.You can maybe get 20-30 min of total 1080p record time out of 1 battery. This is pretty close to what I've come to expect, which for how I use it, is excellent. On trail I would only go through about 2-3 batteries day. If i'm just going hiking I'm taking my full set-up, 10,000 mah Anker battery, 3 camera batteries (1 in the camera, 1 in my charger and 1 on standby ready to swap. Throw the battery in my camera into the charger, fresh battery in my camera, boom shooting again.)
Size/Form factor:
I love the size, it fits in my pa'lante packs shoulder strap pocket, will fit nicely in a coat pocket.

I have used this product for about one month. This camera is the best point and shoot I have ever owned. I usually shoot with a DSLR camera. I came from shooting on a full frame camera. I must say that the imaging on this camera is very good. I can't really compare it to my Canon 5D Mark III head to head. However the lens and compact camera body are very high quality for a compact. Being able to shoot at apertures from 1.8 to f11 is pretty good for a camera of this size. Having a focal range of 24-70 is limiting, but the image quality is very good. ISO range is from 100-12,800. I have not tried shooting very slow shutter speed or quick shutter speeds. I do know you are able to shoot at shutter speeds of 32,000. This camera can also shoot a very fast burst rate of 24 fps up to 150 images then starts to slow down. There is now 315 points of focus using phase detection. The autofocus is very quick at 0.5 seconds. I primarily used this camera for photography. The view finder is small, but very usable. It is able to show 2.35 million dots of resolution. I did try using the video features and I was very happy with the video quality. I used 1080p at 60 frames. I used the xavcs format utilizing the 50 MB/second data speed. I refrained from using 4K because of the 5 minute cut off. Also I do not shoot to much in 4K. The HD 1080p was more than satisfactory for me. I give this camera 5 stars because I think it is one of the best cameras of 2016 in a compact body.
Seems to be more at home with Mac computers than PCs. The camera was also released before major software titles were ready. Lightroom caught up 6 weeks after I got the camera. Sony needs to collaborate better with mainstream software. The stuff they "ship" with it is a crazy idea ... like I'm going to use different software for this pocket camera than I am for my Canon images (NOT!).
It is, by the way, NOT a shirt or pants pocket camera. It's too thick and heavy for that. But it's a perfect coat pocket or fanny pack camera.
Oh yeah. One other irritation. It comes with a couple of string adapters to which you can attach a neck strap, which the instructions say is "sold separately." Good luck finding where it is sold separately. I had to settle for a brown polka dot thing I found on Amazon. Why did they include the string adapters and no strap -- especially when no branded matching strap is available.
Irritating details, but a great little camera that takes very sharp images.

With the latest generation Sony RX100V, the answer is: Absolutely, yes! The image quality is excellent and can hold its own even compared to cameras with bigger sensors. The sensor has a remarkable dynamic range and the high ISO noise levels are comparable to full frame cameras a few years back the likes of a Nikon D700. And that's not bad!
Overall I would not be afraid to publish photos out of the RX100V in any high-gloss magazine in any size. The image quality is good enough for any professional work.
The camera has an overwhelming amount of functions for both still and video imagery. Fortunately, the camera can be customized to your taste and skill level. The menu system is cumbersome, but once you set the camera up to your liking, menus hardly have to be accessed. New in this version of the camera - and the main reason I bought it - is the ability to customize your own menu, which allows me to only see the functions I really need.
The pop-up viewfinder is fantastic and unique for a camera is compact. The camera is really hard on the battery, so plan to buy 2-3 extras to get you through a full day of shooting.
The other two items to get for this camera are:
a) the additional hand grip, which Sony should include in the first place.
b) a third party filter adapter which allows you to add filters like a polarizer. The Sony filter adapter does NOT work for this camera (it vignettes). Buy the Lensmate or Magfilter adapters.
Now, before you shell out the cash for this rather expensive camera, you should keep in mind that the camera does not take the photos. You do. If you go to many image forums, you will find many bad and average photos taken with the Sony RX100 series. The reason for that is that people believe the sheer amount of functions in those little cameras can compensate for a lack of talent. They can't. If you are a novice or beginner, you should also set aside some money to take a camera course.
Pedí esta que dice M5 y me llegó la M5A, que tiene unas cuantas mejoras en comparación a la M5 y es más reciente. Fue un buen punto.
La cámara permite tomar muy buenas fotos aun si eres principiante. Tiene muchísimas funciones por lo que fue necesario revisar algunos videos que me ayudaran a entender los menus un poco mejor.
Comparado con mi celular (Galaxy S9) toma mucho mejores fotos con mucho más detalle, la integración con la app es muy buena y puedes pasar las fotos al celular muy rápido para compartirlas.
