Did the RX1 really need more resolution? Maybe not, but we're not going to sniff at any camera that's rocking a 42MP full-frame sensor, let alone one you can squeeze into a pocket. Just about. Sony's other tweaks are excellent, though. The pop-up viewfin...

While it's hard to fault the imaging performance of the RX1R II, almost $5,500 is a lot to pay for a compact camera with a fixed focal length lens, regardless of its sensor size and resolution. And, frankly, how many photographers actually NEED 42-megapix...

This is a full frame 42 megapixel “compact” camera with a fixed 35mm Zeiss T* f2 lens. It has a variable low-pass filter, and yes, we had to consult the book. Sony says: “You can choose from three optical variable low-pass filter effect settings1: Off (to...

When it first launched at the end of 2012, the Sony Cyber-shot RX1 was a camera like no other. Its full-frame sensor and fixed 35mm lens made it a distinctive shooter for the high-end market. Sure, it had its imperfections, but that large sensor gave it i...
