Luminous optics. Rate of fire 24 fps. Advanced autofocus. Video shooting in 4K. effective stabilizer. High speed video recording. Retractable electronic viewfinder.

The sixth generation of a premium compact large inch sensor that is a role model for other players in the photographic arena. Together with the VI prefix in the name, the camera has acquired longer focal length optics — the coverage of the focal length range of the model has grown from 24-70 mm to 24-200 mm (full frame equivalent). The lens aperture was sacrificed for the ability to “photohunt” at long-range distances, the indicators of which now “float” from f / 2.8 at the short end to f / 4.5 at the telephoto zoom position (in the predecessor model, the maximum aperture of the standard optics was equal to f / 1.8-2.8 ).

Using 315 phase-detection AF points, the Sony RX100 VI locks onto the target in a record-breaking 0.03 second. Also stunningly fast "baby" is in burst mode (24 fps). The compact camera shoots video in 4K format with an extended dynamic range (Hybrid Log Gamma mode). The optical stabilization system, the effectiveness of which is estimated by the ability to compensate up to 4 stops of exposure, kindly provides its assistance in obtaining a smooth video sequence and photos without blurring. As before, the hallmark of the camera is a retractable OLED viewfinder.

You can get it for 50. We're waiting to see if Canon gets involved with the G7x series

The device has a one-inch sensor, which already places it a level, if not two, above any smartphone. The largest sensor in smartphones is 1/2.3", several times smaller than the Sony RX100M6. And let's not forget about the pixel sizes. The Sony provides an image quality comparable to cropped DSLRs and mirrorless cameras with non-high-end lenses.

great model, love it

I have a long-standing relationship with the RX100 series, starting with the first camera I bought in 2013. It's pleasing that year by year, the camera undergoes qualitative, rather than quantitative, changes. I fell in love with this camera instantly.
The camera received a long-awaited update for travelers, with the lens zoom increasing nearly threefold without increasing the camera's size.
The image is very vivid and bright, and for those who enjoy editing, there's the option to shoot in RAW. The focusing speed is impressive, locking in place in fractions of a second. You can shoot long series at 24 fps.
The 4K video is highly detailed, with smooth refocusing.
An excellent camera for a wide range of tasks, I recommend it!

Gift for father. Hx60, Hx400 and now rx100VI (6). Every three years I chose a new camera for my parents. Sellers always offered the rx100 series and always refused in favor of the Hx due to the high magnification. And finally, the compact camera has not received 3x magnification.
Image quality. Convincing my father that this is not a step back from the HX400 wasn't easy, but after they looked at the photos on the TV, everything fell into place.
Compactness+sensor size+zoom. I always liked the image on the RX, and here comes such an offer.
They were shocked to find it has a viewfinder. It's pure joy. After the HX400, I didn't want to give it up, and here, in such a small camera, it has one.
The video capabilities were surprising. It seems no one will pick up the old CX530 anymore.
The ability to transfer photos to a smartphone (just like in the HX400).
The rotating selfie screen mechanism did not inspire much confidence, but even parents liked the function itself

Video reviews

The RX100 series cameras from Sony are rightfully considered the leaders of the guard of functional compacts. They demonstrate excellent quality of photo and video shooting, take up a minimum of space in the photographer's ammunition, and are suitable for use in the most diverse roles.

Solid increase

The key innovation in the sixth version of the Sony RX100 is a solid increase in zoom ratio. Instead of a 24-70 mm lens, the camera now uses built-in optics covering equivalent focal lengths of 24-200 mm, which greatly expands the range of tasks to be solved. However for this we had to sacrifice aperture ratios — the maximum aperture grows from f / 2.8 at the short end to f / 4.5 at the telephoto zoom position.

Optical stabilization

Optical image stabilization is designed to compensate for a possible lack of aperture ratio with a claimed efficiency of about four stops of exposure or shutter speed. It also contributes to the smoothness of the video sequence when recording videos. By the way, video shooting on the camera is carried out in FullHD and 4K resolution, including with extended dynamic range Hybrid Log Gamma and S-Log2, S-Log3 profiles. Video recording is limited to a few minutes to prevent overheating of the sensor.

Solid pluses

The camera shoots a photo at a record speed of 24 fps, instantly focuses (0.03 sec according to the "passport" characteristics), effectively tracks the target by the eyes in the tracking autofocus mode. In addition, the model has acquired a tilting screen with touch controls and a retractable OLED viewfinder. A small bitter pill is a modest battery life (240 shots according to CIPA standards). However, the spare battery NP-BX1 successfully solves this oversight.
