After reading a couple of glowing reviews like this one, I decided to pick up a SONY DSC-RX100, the images I’m seeing from it are very impressive! It’s amazing that a camera this small deliver images this big! The list of technological achievements in this tiny gem is long. An f1.8, 3.7X zoom lens, 20 megapixel RAW images, a huge 1″ sensor, ten frames-per-second burst mode, stereo HD video, macro mode to 2″. Awesome! After just two hours with this camera, the battery is dead, and my mind is blown – again.
Hat tip to Grant for pointing me to this free Mac-only Russian ARW to RAW converter! With it, I can easily convert SONY’s proprietary RAW format into something usable.
Thanks as always to the Kellster for being such a good sport!
The Kellster’s eye job looks great!
Yes, it does!! I’m sure she’ll be happy that someone noticed! 😉
I’m giving some serious thought to getting the Sony, despite the price, for Eleanore because she takes really good pictures (she reminds me of you!) but she won’t use a camera more complicated than a point and shoot.
Well, let me complicate things further – http://blog.sony.com/nex5r
Jim, Yea I was considering an entry level DSLR and looking at either the Nikon 3200, or the 5200 when it comes out. But I ran into the Sony Nex5r and heard a lot of good things. Any suggestions?
