Review: Great family camera! - Let me start by saying that I purchased this camera mainly to capture photos of our 10 month old baby son. As we all know infants move unpriedictevly and fast focusing camera is a must. Here is why this camera delivers on that task. 1. It’s fast. I mean lightning fast not only in acquiring focus but also during handling like switching between menu, playback and picture taking modes. I never wait for things to happen, I press and it happens. 2. Burst mode is incredibly fast. It’s critical to have fast frame burst mode in order to capture that baby’s smily face. 24 frames with continuous focus is crazy fast! 3. Touch screen! Finally Sony! Even though it only works during live view mode to pin point autofocus and during playback mode to magnify picture (no pinch to zoom in or out unfortunately) I don’t think I’m missing out here. I don’t use touch screen in menus anyway. I works good, I don’t feel any lags. 4. It’s very customizable in terms of assigning shortcut buttons. Sony’s menu is not very intuitive especially coming from Canon world but I think once you setup my menu items and reassign buttons the way you like you will be OK. Particularly I like one feature. It’s burst photos images grouping. If I take burst photo with let say 50 photos I don’t have to scroll trough them all to get to the next picture, camera groups those 50 photos in 1 group and you can exit it and go to next picture. Another neat feature is that you can protect picture you like and delete the rest of pictures with press of a button, so you have to delete 49 other pictures manually if you like just 1 of them. I don’t know why other cameras don’t have that, it makes my life much easier. 5. Great dynamic range right out camera’s JPEGs. We all probably had a situation when you want to take a photo from inside restaurant with some beautiful view outside and people by your table but than you have dilemma. When background is properly bright people by a table are dark, if you want people on your pic to look bright background becomes overexposed or very bright. That’s when this cameras outperforms any other cameras I have used. It has feature called DRO it makes dark areas brighter while keeping whole scene properly exposed. It’s not HDR function when camera takes 3 photos and stacks them, it only takes 1 photo. By the way it has HDR mode too and works well too but as we all know it’s only good for still scene as photo can come out blurry if anybody moved during capturing these 3 photos. 6. You can take 4K video and grab photo from it. I love this function, I just shoot high resolution 4K video of our constantly moving baby boy and then just grab 17 megapixel frame from it if I like it. Great feature! 7. You can instantly transfer photos to your smartphone via WiFi no cables needed even when you are outside away from Wifi. It’s not as simple setup as Canons system but it’s easy enough. And you can start sharing those photo minute after you took them! Overall I’m very happy with my purchase. Lack of touch screen held me back from buying rx100 cameras for years! Not anymore! Yes this camera is expensive but it’s good investment that will last. I don’t think I will need to but any other camera for many more years. It does everything I need it to do superbly!
Review: Fantastic compact travel camera - I was looking for a high performance travel camera to take on trips and backpacking. I decided on the Sony RX100M6 after reading several reviews. The camera takes very sharp/clear pictures. The colors it records are authentic. I shoot in RAW format and edit in Lightroom. The pictures are fantastic. I have experimented with JPEG and those images are very nice as well. I am extremely happy with this camera. Some on-line reviews complain about the reduction in f-stop (lower end being f2.8-4.5) due to the extended zoom range. I have not found this to be an issue and prefer the extended zoom (24-200mm). The camera is well built - it has a very solid feel. The Sony menu system is a little confusing, but the on-line manual describes each of the settings in detail. You can customize your camera to place critical menu items in the My Menu section so that you can find your most crucial settings quickly - for example: Format. The camera is small and it could slip out of you hand easily. I therefore added the AG-R2 grip which makes it easier to handle. I also added a OP/TECH USA Cam Strap - QD (a wrist strap). A second battery is a must. To protect the screen, I selected a Vello Screen Protector Ultra. The Lowepro Portland 20 bag fits the camera with its strap and a spare battery nicely. It's a great bag for backpacking and can attach to your belt. If you need a small bag to fit the camera, strap, spare battery, charger, cables, and lens cloth - then the Lowepro Adventura SH100R II is a nice choice. The camera has WiFi and you can download pictures to your smart phone using the Sony Imaging Edge Mobile application. I found that establishing the WiFi connections between the camera and phone to be fairly straightforward using the NFC feature. The other connection methods work, but are more cumbersome. You can download the full size image or a reduced image size of 2M for use with social media (for example). This is a great camera!

### ⭐⭐⭐ Excellent bokeh and telephoto. No timelapse.
*by G***E on November 19, 2018*

This camera takes very good photos and video, but as a point-and-shoot that lacks certain physical capabilities by design as a size tradeoff, they should throw the kitchen sink at the software features. Unfortunately, they removed the timelapse feature for this version, and it would have been great to have on the vacation that I just took. Also, the feature to allow GPS and timestamp exif data to be added from a bluetooth connection to a phone does not work. I have hundreds of photos that are way off in the time stamp (making they not fun to share with everyone in the Google Photos album when my photos are out of sync with their phone photos). Some photos get GPS coordinates, and others do not. There's no rhym or reason to it. Also, some have the location correct, and others have a general location, while others have the wrong location. Super bummed about all of that, because it's the only reason I went with the M6 over the M5. I hear the M5 does better in low light. Lastly, while shooting video and zooming, sometimes the sound from the mechanical zoom is recorded in the audio (loudly), and other times it is not. Overall, this is a good camera at a lower price, but for this price the value is just not there.
