the 1 stop gain at lens 1 stop taken away from sensor. Why must it be like this.

Cant they just do something greater? Dont follow s100 where you gain digic5 you get a less bright lens.

Well, engineers still cant break the law of physics. there must be a compromise somewhere. it's just getting the best package available.

Come to think of it.. I know of a compact thats does....

- Much better high ISO than the RX100
- Super fast AF system.
- Same dynamic range
- Touch screen ... tonnes of functionality.... electronic spirit level also got.
- Can fit EVF
- Can bracket up to 7 shots
- Also can bounce flash
- Bigger but about the same size as the XZ-1 niah (5mm thicker package niah)

So... the best'est and cheaper than the RX100 making it highest cost/performance ratio, most powderful compact camera now is the....

haha true also.... but 14mm lens is 28mm only..... but price for gx1 + 14mm prime still cheap meh?

But can it fit in your pants pocket comfortably?

Pana GX1 with 14mm quite limiting plus I thought users are complaining
it has crippling slow AF?

RX100 is king of premium PnS for now

GX1 with their new power lens really small only.... focus speed also really fast with the touch screen. But the only downside is the lens are too slow f3.5 onwards...

After converting to RM still cheaper than RX100.

It's the same size as my XZ-1 more or less.

Where got? GX1 AF is super snappy wan. Can personally attest to that.

And yes.. RX100 looks good considering LX7's dissappointing specs but its still closer to premium compact performance while the GX1 is closer to dslr performance wo.

True... don't like the PZ lens at all. The size is nice but sloooooooow and the damn ahbeng red fonts all over the place.

preview keluar sudah...

with sensor, aperture & aperture equivalent comparison

If the RX100 is not so slow at the tele end then it would've been a winner for me.

the LX7 sample lacks that oomph.

Hmmm.. just came across these in flickr.

Not bad considering they're out of camera jpegs. At least it didn't clip the blacks like most compacts does in long exposure.

NOTE: These are not mine

Added on July 22, 2012, 3:51 pmI am looking to buy a premium compact and right now the RX100 is top
of the list. Someone did an estimate on the size of the new Canon M
and if he is right it is even smaller than the RX100 and S100.
Anyway we will know tomorrow and hope it will not be too expensive
like the Oly EM5

Different category la.. besides its pointless just to compare camera body. The EOS-M will have the same issues that the NEX had but at the same time, have time advantage to correct where NEX went wrong.

Anyone got the RX100 yet?

will attend a launching on thursday

in msia?

What sort of same issues are they?

Added on July 26, 2012, 4:55 pmThat would mean today. What sort of invite is that?

A press release was provided on 23rd July but no price was given at the time. Sony has informed that the RX100 will be available in Malaysia from early August 2012.
