First off, get a better mic set up. Echos everywhere.

Secondly, not sure if it's the setting from my side, but I think there's something wrong with the video fps. Kind of jittery, nothing to do with the low fps.

Thirdly, you need to have some consistency throughout the video, disregarding the camera comparison. For example, the exposure is all over. One moment you, as the presenter, are in bright room (a bit bright? or too much whites?), then switch to darker room, then to dim room and then back to bright room. Same with the video grading, some fade, some contrasty. Then there is the comparison video where in the first scene, you show full screen, then at last reel, you switch to side by side. I can't really tell the quality with the side by side if the image is shrunk down. Don't forget the audio too.

On regards to the testing method......I don't think that is a good macro test. Not an expert in macro, but doesn't it involve comparing closest focal distance and very close up shots? You don't need to shoot butterflies, you can do it with small toys. Doing slow mo test in flickering flourescent light probably not the best idea. And when you only plan to do out of camera video without post process, perhaps best to leave out the 'dynamic range' as some people will only see wash out and less contrasty video of rx100 which does not look good by itself. I don't own RX100 but doesn't it come with option for vivid profile for fairer comparison? Also, list down the setting of each video like what is the frame rate and at what resolution?

Lastly, I personally don't like cliffhangers. Having to doubletake and jump back to the video after looking at the reveal is a bit of a hassle. Some personal opinion from you will probably bring something to the discussion table.
