Used Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-RX100 III Digital Camera G

Brilliant little package with a superb lens that allows both good automatic pictures or something more creative using the various controls.

Great compact

What a Little Beast of a Camera , I've changed from Full Frame to Rx100 and I'm really pleased I did ...

Great Little Pocket Rocket

The latest version is the Mk7 which was launched in 2019, which makes this little camera a lot behind the curve. The biggest difference with the Mk3 is the zoom and the screen, both considerably better in the Mk7.

The Mk3 is however a superb little camera with most of the features and spec of the Mk7, but at a VERY much lower cost.

Good but old version

I bought this as I wanted a good compact camera for an upcoming trip. Image quality was paramount over a long optical zoom. Nice wide angle and fast lens, pop up viewfinder and more modes than you can shake a stick at. So far the images have been crystal clear and pin sharp.

Fantastic little camera

Bought this camera after reading other reviews as I needed a small camera for travel and family functions etc, one you can easily carry around with you instead of my bulky DSLR camera, and I have to say this takes great photos and easy to transfer to phone etc, no fuss point and shoot with manual settings if you want more options, black&white photos are excellent, early days but looking forward to more opportunities to use this fab little camera.

Small camera with huge capabilities

I bought this camera as I wanted a smaller camera that is easy to use and would produce big camera results and that is exactly what it does!

Does exactly what i wanted it to do

This was a breakthrough camera when it came out. Sony has iterated but not improved much on subsequent models. 

In some ways, sadly, mobile phones have supplanted this line now. But it was great initially, except they never updated it correctly. As a recurring theme.

A once great cam, the rx100 has had its day.

Feels great in the hand, is very small (considering) and gives great IQ. For reference, I am an experienced photographer.

Feels quality

Really love this camera. Terrific photos. Just be careful with it as it is fragile.

Brilliant camer

Not the newest of the RX100 stable but for me this is very much the value sweet spot. A little more reach at the telephoto end would be nice and the soap-like body is crying out for the aftermarket stick-on grip that should be supplied from new but small niggles aside this is a remarkable combinate of super-sharp lens, speedy processing and effective 1-inch sensor that displays surprisingly little noise in low light for a 20.1-megapixel unit. Throw in the pop-up viewfinder that magically appears from the body and then stows away to allow impressive pocket-ability and this is a proper powerhouse.

Small but Mighty

Bought this to replace a digital slr as wanted something a little lighter and given I bought my slr a year ago, hopefully better specs. 
We'll, I got both, smaller( by a mile!) and specs far better than the bulky slr I had. 20 mpixels a great lens and all the normal extras. Recommend

Great all around camera

I wanted a camera that was a noticeable upgrade from a smartphone, portable, and didn't cost a fortune. I did a lot of research and went for this model in the end - and the results I have obtained even with my basic and limited knowledge of photography have far exceeded my expectations. If point and click is more your thing, this also does a superb job of that - and the camera knows more than I do at the moment when comparing my manual pictures to the settings the camera chooses on auto.

I have also compared this side by side with an expensive DSLR, and whilst a good photographer would achieve better results with the bigger camera, for me the comparison was favourable for my RX and what I was trying to achieve.

I don't intend to take up photography as a hobby, just obtain a greater understanding of it to take better pictures, and needed the equipment to enable me to do that - but this would be a great stepping stone for someone that did want to do that - before making the jump to a more complex and expensive product.

You can make full adjustment around the exposure triangle, and the menu system is very easy to use. The zoom is not that big, so if that's important you may want to consider stepping up to models higher in this range, but for someone like me - using it on trips at home and abroad it's perfect - giving me control over the settings, and avoiding the horrible distortion that can occur on camera phones.

Great upgrade from a smartphone

Fits in a pocket, so I use it more than I would a large SLR camera. Simple to use as a 'point and shoot' camera but with added features as well. Having a viewfinder as well as the screen is a huge bonus, especially in bright sunlight.

great pocket camera

Exactly the standard of service I have come to expect from Sony

Great quality

Just fancied a smaller camera to my brilliant Canon Powershot.....early days but good results however still need to handle the complexity available on this camera . Basically I just want to have a point and shoot and a decent telephoto . Camera delivers but would prefer a slightly better telephoto . . But good price including cade and grip so overall very pleased .

Great Small Camera

Like the compact size, like the solid feel, like the hidden flash and viewfinder. Mainly like the sharp images. It's the best value compact. Would like more zoom but then wouldn't like the larger size. Overall I'm very happy

Best Value Point and Shoot

Camera has a very poor zoom function, only 70mm. Pretty useless from my holiday to Scotland

Rubbish zoom

The screen of my RX100 III Camera shows permanent stains in its interior, which can be seen from the exterior. I'm dissapointed with its many faults. I'm very careful handling it and keep the camera inside a protective case. However, the screen stains can't be cleaned because they are located in its interior. It's obvious the screen is not properly sealed and humidity has gone inside it. It looks grubby. I'm very dissapointed as this camera is advertised as high-tech, but it is not. Same happened with the screen of my RX100 I, I'm sure Sony R&D is aware of the faulty screen. NOT recommended.

STAINED SCREEN - SONY RX100 III CAMERA

I bought this in 2019 and virtually ever since it has been a problem downloading pictures to my apple devices. The main app has not been updated to 64 bit and there is no updated software since the 2017 version

over technical and poor support

It's a nice camera, with a number of useful functions, like RAW, good low light performance, a neutral density filter, for example. However, compared to the HX90V, it's not such good value for money. In particular, I find the 3x optical zoom is very limiting, for example.

Nice camera, but the zoom is very limited

A truly pocket sized camera packed with great features. The lens is fast and bright, and the pop up evf is just brilliant. Very happy with performance so far, in all kinds of light. The best camera is the one you have with you, and if you're a street photographer this little gem will change everything!

Brilliant pocket camera

I do most of my photography with a compact and I do take a lot of photos so I get through cameras quite quickly, consequently I have tried a number of makes over the years and this is my first Sony. 
It is a good looking camera, though I have a couple of minor thoughts on design.
It almost seems to be designed for designers, for example the body is very smooth, I am not sure why they could not have put a tactile surface on it rather than selling a stick on grip, secondly the shutter button is flush with the top plate which makes it difficult to feel for if you are looking at the screen or into the view finder or need to take a very quick photo. 
I have got around the smoothness and the risk of dropping it by using a wrist strap, that I did on previous cameras anyway, I did also buy the stick on grip but have yet to fit it.
With the shutter button I found that feeling for the zoom control that sits in front of it a way of finding it blind. The button should be slightly raised and with a slight concave dip in it to position your finger.
That aside the camera works well, the photos are sharp as I would expect with a Zeiss lens. Being new to it I had to do a little fine tuning of the features to get it as I want it to be.

There is a users book with it, I find it irritating that it is quite so thick as it comes in a huge number of languages. That seems rather wasteful seeing as there are not many pages of instructions in each language, it can't be difficult to just include a manual for the country that the camera is being exported to or simply say it is on line to download.
As to the information in it, one of the main things I wanted to know was what the different exposure options were, Auto, aperture priority, speed priority and so on, I know these mentioned but there were two I have never seen before, Superior auto and intelligent auto. There was no explanation of what any of these where, It took me ages on line to find out. 
Surely this is basic information that should be in a manual, long before what the European regulations are for safe disposal of the camera. I jest somewhat. 
Actually the on line manual is very good.
The camera is surprisingly heavy for its quite small size which make it feel as though it is well made, which it seems to be. The controls are all firm and feel as though they will last.
All in all and despite my observations on design and the manual, I am very pleased with it, it is a smart looking thing and above all, it does what I want, take good photos.

Early days but looks good.

The Sony RX100 series really are brilliant. It is a truly pocketable camera with a viewfinder that produces fantastic images.

However I've given it one star. This is my third RX100 in nine years - since 2013. I've previously had an RX100 III and an RX100 VA. Both broke with what seem to me to be electrical faults, one in the sensor and one in the flash/viewfinder. The VA, which I looked after really carefully, lasted less than three years. It is currently at Sony for investigation but I don't expect much from them. 

Bizarrely the original RX 100 III, whose sensor failed, has lived in a box without it's battery whilst I had the VA. I recently took it out to send to Sony to look at as I was sending the VA anyway, but it now works fine again. Capacitance? 

I'd already bought the replacement Mk III when I realised this, and to be honest I expect if I start to use the original Mk III in anger then, having already failed catastrophically once, it will fail again. 

By way of comparison, the Canon EOS 20D and Panasonic LX5 I used from the 2005 to 2013 still work fine. 

Very reluctantly I've bought another RX100 III, as it is relatively cheap. I couldn't find another product that fitted my requirements quite so well, although in future it is quite likely I will switch to a smaller Fuji mirrorless.

I expect this new Mk III will break in two - three years. I wouldn't bet money on it failing in the warranty period, but I would bet money it will fail within three years. I'm viewing the £469 outlay as a subscription - in order to have a camera that meets my needs for two years I have to pay a bit less than my Netflix and Disney+ subscriptions, and anything else is a bonus. However I find it pretty disgraceful that I am forced to think about thinks like that - not least from the waste in terms of resources and environment.

I won't ever be buying any other Sony cameras ever again. Neither will I replace my long-lasting Sony TV with another TV from them. Or anything else electronic from Sony. I'm so fed up with this experience that the Sony brand is dirt to me.

Fantastic camera, until it breaks.

Have used Sony RX100 II for almost 7 years. Bought this as an upgrade and am very happy. The lens is wider and faster, allowing for good low light shooting. There is a pop-up viewfinder which helps a lot with composition, especially in bright sunlight. And the sensor is better to my previous model. Overall, RX100's are very strong and robust cameras and perfect small size to take with me when I'm out and about. Indeed, because it is so small it's easier to take photographs without being spotted and this makes it perfect for street photogaraphy. Having used it for some weeks now I am very happy with Sony RX100 III.

Fantastic upgrade to Sony RX100 II

Defective and poor................................

Defective and poor

My DSC-RX100M3 has been a workhorse for the past three years--I bought it for wide angle and low-light uses, and it has been great in those respects--but in the past year the C/Delete button has started triggering the recording function (incredibly annoying) and the software stopped working (terrible software, but the only way to transfer files from the camera via wifi). There have been no firmware updates while I've had the camera, it's out of warranty, etc. Sony should do more to stand by their products.

Buggy after three years' use

I this bought a month ago as an alternative to my A7, so I could always have a decent fully manual camera with me. This is a great compact camera, so far I can't find fault with it!

Does exactly what I need

I bought this camera 4 months ago. I was very satisfied and took stunning pictures with it. To my bad luck I mistakenly dropped the camera once. The edge of the viewfinder got misshaped which caused that I cant open the viewfinder and the camera constantly monitors that its open (viewfinder starts working). Its still under the one year warranty. I hope to contact Sony soon and see what's my further steps.

Great Features Very Fragile

This is the ideal camera to suit my lifestyle as a walker and cyclist. It is small, versatile and easy to use. Transferring photos from camera to my sony smartphone is quick and easy.
