Awesome!

The RX100 M3 produces stunning images and is all elegantly engineered in a small comfortable design you can carry with everywhere! The awesome viewfinder really sets it apart from other similar sized cameras on the market. Best purchase I've made in ages!!

Bought this because I wanted a quality point and shot. It has exceeded my expectations. Great pictures, as is the video. Best part is its ability to take good pictures in low light without having to make a bunch of adjustments. I have recommended this camera to everyone that tells me they are looking for a new point and shoot. Expensive, but really worth it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I love the image quality from this camera but still struggle with the software and usability. From the software perspective, Canon trumps Sony hands down. Nevertheless, the RX100's combination of pocketability and superior optics are worth the ongoing hassle of fighting with the disappointing software. One issue for me is all the cheesy consumer features that are more appropriate for a $100-200 point-and-shoot. Since the pricey RX100 appeals to many skilled amateurs and pros, it would be great if you could turn off the consumers features and operate the camera in a simplified "pro" mode. However, a small, lightweight form factor and high quality optics were paramount for me, so I don't regret the purchase. It's just that Sony did such a terrific job with hardware that the software fail is more painful than it might be in a more ordinary camera.

The kind of product that only Sony could develop. The lens, the sensor, the displays, and the miniaturisation -- all Sony prime talents -- are all combined to produce the finest pocket camera ever. The feel and heft, the appearance and location of controls and the smart operation are an object of wonder and desire. I smile every time I take it out and again at the results it produces.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I've taken photos and short videos all over the world with this camera. There are more powerful cameras, longer lenses, etc., but THIS IS THE ONE I TAKE!! It is small in size, excellent to handle, razor sharp Zeiss Lens, FULL-SIZE excellent view finder as well as the led viewer (I wear glasses, this is the best, crisp - razor sharp viewfinder), and the SENSOR captures EVERYTHING ... excellent in very very low night light. With the leather 'Sony' case, it is very well protected ... it is not a fragile camera ... but don't push, take care and it will put a BIG SMILE on your face!

Two months ago I bought a Sony RX100 M3 and have used it extensively in a wide range of lighting conditions and on different subjects. As a former user for decades of a professional SLR (film), and owner of other point&shoot digital cameras, this camera is astonishing. From p&s to manual and everything in between! At a recent wedding in my family, the professional photographer came up to me and told me he uses one as a back-up (then told me to get out of his way).

My wife and I took a recent trip to Madrid, Spain and Marrakech, Morocco. Weight was an issue, since we were backpacking, and the RX 100 III delivered. We needed a camera that was small, light-weight, and capable of producing excellent pictures and video. We bought the camera two days before our vacation, and the interface was so easy to learn, that we taught ourselves on the train! The video was shot from a terrace about 30m in distance. As you can see, this camera does it all. We loved the Electronic View Finder feature, and as a whole, feel that we definitely got our money's worth.

A Versitile and pocketable Gem

Professional photography was once my life, now I shoot photographs strictly for fun and family reasons. I looked for a pocket-able camera, which would hold up its end like the big boys. I had owned a previous Sony for a decade before, and I once even used it to photograph British Royalty, it had great optics, but I still could not carry in my pocket.
I needed a small camera, with a fast lens for using available light, and superb image quality. After much research I opted for the DSC-RX-100.
That was a few moths ago, and since then I have had no regrets, the RX-100 does everything it says on the box and much more. The image quality is top-notch, as is the construction, I keep it in the leather-like carry case and find that the lower part best to leave on while shooting, otherwise the camera feels a bit small for my hands.
I shoot mostly people portraits and nature and the lens is brilliant for my needs, however, you may wish a longer zoom, but I do not.
In all the RX-100 camera is typical Sony quality, and a great successor to the one I had owned for over a decade before.
For me it was just what I needed to keep me satisfied.
