Now the lengthy part...
I'm coming from owning a fair share of cameras as a professional photographer. As of this review, I have a Sony A7m2 with the kit lens, but also the 70200g f4 lens, plus other various lenses. The Sony a6000 + nex 5n, RX100m3, Fuji X100F. Further down in the review III will be the RX100m3 and VII is the one the review is for.Why does this become part of the review? Its because I can put this camera against some stiff competition before writing this review. As far as usefulness, I think this camera is 10/10. I used to carry the RX100m3 along everywhere with me because of its size. I kept it, for the fact that it has f1.8 at its widest vs 2.8 of the RX100m7. Now I carry the III and the VII everywhere. However, the one I have used primarily these past few weeks have been the VII because of its reach. I know 90% of my photos never exceed the range of 70mm. Found this out a 3rd time because of a 2 month trip to Viet Nam and Japan where I took only the III and X100F. During that trip I only encountered maybe 5 times max where I wish I had 200mm reach. Well, now I have that, and more. I'll upload photos later after this review.
Build quality: 10/10
Is basically the same as you can expect from Sony and its previous RX models. Same high quality.
Image quality: 8/10
I love it. Obviously it won't compete with the bigger cameras I have, but in good lighting (always a key) the image quality is amazing. The range this camera provides helps in making better bokeh portraits compared to the 24-70mm range of previous models (not including the VI). *my opinion you may not agree
Video: N/A
Honestly, not much a video person. Having an option to add a mic really pushed me to buying this camera. That was the selling point to me. Otherwise I wouldn't have bought this since I didn't buy the VI either.
Where does this camera fit in?
As expected, I can see this camera fit perfectly in my travel kit. Where 90% of the time I would use it while traveling, only pulling out the III when I go walking around at night or poorly lit conditions.
If you know the limitations of this camera it will not let you down. Just, as explained earlier, it isn't going to be good for wildlife, but as a portraits and everyday camera. I think it nails it.
What I wish:
Weather Sealing! C'mon Sony, you pulled through with the mic input. I want to use these cameras in raining conditions. I'm a firm believer of what these tiny guys can do.

I realize I am not really reviewing, but I am sure some may run into this type of debate so this is just my thoughts.
For me...this camera is worth the price. Whether I keep my A7III is up in the air right now. This camera really can do everything the A7III can in a much smaller body. Do I really need great low light ability?
My nit picking items....Sony....include the stick on hand grip with this camera. To charge extra with this camera being slick is very petty. Also, for $1200 you should include a second battery and a small charger. Again, petty IMHO. You know the battery is not great so add another. Also...there are many that wish you made this same but camera with the 24-70 option with wider aperture. I am one of those people. The 200 zoom is nice for many but lower light option would be nice

Se siente sólida, sin embargo, su cuerpo es liso y sin agarre; eso me hizo sentirla insegura para traerla suelta en la mano por lo que, en cuanto la desempaqué, le puse una correa para el cuello que tenía guardada (o sea, solamente trae una pequeña correa para la mano y los aditamentos para poner la correa de cuello).
Para conectar a la computadora hay que hacer algunos ajustes; no es nada más de conectar.
No es barata, pero a mi gusto valió la pena la inversión.
El manual que está en internet (porque no trae uno ni en papel ni en electrónico) no es muy bueno que digamos, de modo que busqué videos en youtube y me resolvieron algunas dudas.
1. It can shoot even in RAW-only mode.
2. Impressive colour reproduction and dynamic range, particularly if one considers its small sensor size.
3. Auto-focus system is very quick and accurate .
4. Very high burst mode suitable for BIF or sports photography.
5. Very handy zoom range for shooting any kind of photography, except wildlife.
There are some cons as well. They are
1. High ISO performance is not so good.
2. Menu navigation for changing settings sometimes can become cumbersome.
3. Buttons are too small to find out quickly, though its not a deal breaker.
4. Price is a little high. Anything around 60K would have been appropriate.
Overall, this pocket camera is good for someone who is starting photography and who travels a lot.

Legendary for Zeiss lenses!
A fantastic small compact camera with quality that can out perform many of the larger format rival brands.
Although the camera Is expensive l do feel that is worth the money in my opinion!
