r/RX100

I have the rope-style Peak Design cuff on my RX100 VII and wondering what’s the smallest possible case I could use. I want something as low profile as possible. Thanks!

Well, maybe not killed. But permanently maimed. I took it with me to Iguazu Falls. Yes, yes, I know…. But it wasn’t the falls that got her. It was the smothering humidity. I don’t think I’ve encountered humidity quite that intense anywhere. It had the door locks on my truck going haywire, and was causing malfunctions with the EVF on another camera. The only thing that seemingly didn’t suffer was my phone, which I used to make a lot of videos.

Specifically the dial on the back of the RX100 stopped responding to rotational input - you know, how most of us change the shutter speed or aperture.

I am sad - the camera is “out of service” for the foreseeable. I never expected to like or depend on it so much - I bought it as a stop-gap camera when my camera bag got stolen. Didn’t really expect to use it much once I replaced my kit, but - it found a permanent place in my jacket pocket.

Anyway that’s my sad little eulogy for my RX100vii, thanks for reading.

I came here to check out some photos of people using the rx100 vii because im looking to buy but im honestly only seeing pics that look like they’ve been taken on an iphone… please tell me its just a skill issue this cannot be true😭✌🏼

I’m aware this is highly subjective but are the SOOC jpegs usable?
Can I take the VII on vacation and get usable vacation photos without needing to edit?

Dies anybody do this and can provide some examples?

TIA

Hey all! I’m trying to decide what model to purchase. I have some experience and a basic understanding of photography and don’t use a cellphone with a camera. Everyone seems to recommend the vii but I am curious how it fares at night time or indoors with lower lighting (restaurant, museum, etc.)?

I’m not a professional and really just use my photos for social media and occasionally printing for decor in my house. I see mixed reviews online about the 2.8 over say the 1.8 in the va. But again, if it’s just for social media will that be something I TRULY notice?

I’d appreciate any input and any of your experience. The camera would be an everyday carry and travel camera.

gonna preface this with i have minimal photography experience. just a few high school courses but i like taking photos for fun!!

i’ve been looking into getting an rx100 for concert photography since ive heard they do well in low lighting. can someone help me figure out what the best mark option would be for me lighting wise? i’m still learning but i know it has to do with the f number and wanting it to be low (or as low as possible?)

any advice would be greatly appreciated!! part of me wants to splurge on the mark vii but that’s easily $1500+ resell value in canada :(

Hi all, I rented a RX100 Mark VII for a concert and the photos are lovely. Now I'd like to edit them in high contrast black and white and I'm learning to use Darktable.

I tried to edit a few jpgs and the results were really good. Then I tried to edit a few raws and the results were not so good. I found fine tuning hard to do somehow. (Maybe it's also my lack of Darktable knowledge)

For context, I'm a concert photographer since 92, using lots of various cameras from analogue to digital and lately I was shooting raw on Canon EOS where raws respond really well to subtle tweaking.

My questions are: in your concert experiences, do you prefer to rework your Sony raws or the jpgs?

And do you have practical tips that are specific to *.ARW?
