I bought the 5a because of the brighter lens. My ideal would have been the touchscreen, the brighter lens and bluetooth. In the end, the brighter lens is far more important for my shooting style than the ability to zoom more.

@williambell4591 5 лет назад

I'm here now with my Amazon cart open deciding between the VA and VI - I also shoot a lot indoors and NEED a hella fast camera when it comes to snapping pics say in moving vehicles or just seeing something exciting and needing to get a CLEAR snap as fast as possible! (I have a whole category of pictures named "Missed Opportunities" w/out of focus pics / partially out of frame subjects etc., from all the various (SLOW!) cameras I've used in my day - I'm try to eliminate that series as much as I can moving forwards!) I do like the 200mm and the viewfinder of the VI though - all this started for me looking to replace my PowerShot sx720 hs (40X zoom) which really comes in handy for me, with a sx740 hs, but started to look around to see if the "grass was greener" elsewhere - so I don't know if I can really be happy w/just 70mm? Digital zoom isn't off the table for me, but I would obviously like to avoid it totally. I also don't like most touch screens because I do a lot of hip shooting (camera down by my leg / pant pocket) and my fingers tend to trigger a lot of unwanted settings changes w/my prior cameras (e.g. older GoPros); if there's something like a touch "lock out" timer in the VI, where presses are ignored, that would be great?? Finally, I'm torn between buying an "older" camera (VA with better speed) OR the newer camera VI w/4K & less speed, and a loss of some features along with a better view finder and 200mm... Thanks for your reviews here - they're really helpful!

@ChasingForever 5 лет назад

I've had the RX 100V for about a year, and couldn't be happier with it as a Vlogger. The built-in ND filter is the bomb!

@radeaver 5 лет назад

Would you mind sharing what settings you are using for your daily vlogging? Wind noise seems a little strong outdoors, have you added anything over the mic openings to help with this? Thanks!

@ChasingForever 5 лет назад

@@radeaver Excellent question! I do not use the in-camera mic. I bought a Purple Panda lavaliere mic ($23?? on Amazon) and the Zoom H1 recorder ($120?? at Amazon: I see Amazon is offering the Zoom H1 bundle which includes a lavaliere mic). I never use any in-camera mic, unless it's an emergency, as the sound quality just isn't possible. Just about all external mics will come with a "dead cat" or some sort of "pop" protection for wind noise reduction. The DOWN SIDE, is that you will need to synch your sound with your video in some editing software. IMovie for Apple makes synching sort of easy. I don't own a PC, but I'm sure basic editing software is out there too. As to other vlogging setting, I shoot in "Aperture" mode mostly, so that I can control background blur. When I'm run-and-gun, I often use "Auto." This little camera is amazing with its ability to figure out settings, so I let it do it's thing. Many have compared this little guy to a mini-a9!

@radeaver 5 лет назад

Chasing Forever thank you for the detailed response. I own the H1 and many external mics. I was just trying to see if there was anything I was overlooking while trying to keep a simplistic vlogging rig together.

@Justoneoftheguys 4 года назад

Great review. One of the best I’ve seen. Would you recommend this one or the vii. I do want good low light performance but heard that the 7 looks better due to processing. What do you think

@Jason_Hermann 4 года назад

Thank you and for low light use I would go with the RX100 VA (bhpho.to/2ROWQBR) for sure. The f/1.8 lens makes a big difference in my opinion and overall image quality is near identical to the VI and VII.

@carriescheid1729 4 года назад

Jay SonyAlphaLab I’m trying to decide between the va and the vi right now. I’m going to shoot landscapes and kids. Which would you suggest? Do you think the va has enough detail to where I can just crop the picture for zoom instead of getting the vi? Also when you zoom on the vi, do you lose detail?

Hi. Jay. Great vídeos all the time👌🏻. I’m looking to get a pocket camera I can carry with me all the time. I’m interested on the RX100v. When comparing the rx100Va to the rx100V, only for portrait photography. Is real time eye-af supported only on rx100Va and newest models. This is the only feature that will make me decide if I buy the rx100Va over the rx100V. Is there eye-af on af-c mode for the rx100V. What’s the difference in performance.? I mainly shoot pictures of my kids. Thanks keep up the great work.👍🏻

@Jason_Hermann 4 года назад

Yeah, the V has Eye-AF and it's very similar to the VA. Only the VII has the more advanced realtime tracking... You will need to program that feature to one of the custom button locations in order to use it and the camera must recognise a face for it to activate as well. MENU → (Custom Settings) → [Custom Key(Shoot.)] → assign the [Eye AF] function to the desired button. Point the camera at a person's face, and press the button to which you have assigned the [Eye AF] function. Press the shutter button while pressing the button.

@Jason_Hermann 3 года назад

Not really better, just a different lens for the most part. Also the VA does not have time-lapse built in like the VII. If you want to learn about the HDR process check out this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TFQfW_1G3Xc.html

@montagdp 3 года назад

Nice review. Just a nitpick: around 10:30 you mentioned that noise starts to become visible at ISO 6400, but the amount of noise depends a lot on the light. The studio test scene seems to have pretty good lighting. Under the conditions where people would normally use high ISO, I bet it would be visible much lower. Even my APS-C EOS M50 has noticeable noise at ISO 1600, so I think that statement is a bit misleading. Real-world pictures at high ISO would probably give a more practical idea of the noise.

@Jason_Hermann 3 года назад

That is totally fair to say. You do start to see the noise at around ISO 800, but when it really becomes an issue to the point of not worth using is ISO 6400 I would say for a correction ;) Thank you for the feedback! Jay

@chryseass.5143 5 лет назад

Jay, you're trying to make me spend more money- you've gotta stop! ha,ha! I am still recovering from recently buying the a7iii and (more than) two new lenses!

Thanks for the great real world reviews!

@Jason_Hermann 5 лет назад

I'm sorry, but these cameras just keep getting better and better ;) The RX100 series as I get older and less willing to carry heavy gear, gets more and more appealing I gatta say. But then when I do shoot full frame, I'm always like, oh yeah, that is why I prefer the larger sensor...

Great review. Just picked this camera up and wanted to say your review and image examples were helpful. Curious if you used the camera with a 3rd party battery to test out the battery life for comparison and if you used any additional accessories? Thank you for the informative review.

@Jason_Hermann Месяц назад

Thank you Henry, and no I only used the Sony batteries... As far as accessories, I only used a mini tripod pretty much as I was trying to keep the weight to a minimum usually when using this kit. Gimbals are fun for that butter smooth footage, and I would consider a microphone for better audio quality. In addition, because the battery life is not that good I carry around a little battery bank I found on amazon for like $20 with me now so I can easily charge in the field in between stops...

@henrymatos9551 Месяц назад

Yes thank you for replying. I will have fun with it and go from there. I plan on picking up a mini tripod along with a Small Rig cage with the wooden grip. ✌🏼

@vaibhavnichal 3 года назад

Great review indeed. What would you suggest between VA and VI for portrait photography? I mostly shoot outdoors. I am tempting for that extra reach on VI. Will that affect quality of portraits? I think 200mm 4.5 will give better results than 70mm 2.8. Can you please help me decide? Portraits is my topmost priority.

@Jason_Hermann 3 года назад

Hello, I would rather have the 200mm f/4.5 over the 70mm f/2.8 for portraits specifically assuming you have the space to work, but both will do a good job in the real world. 200mm will yield you better separation, but the background will need to be pretty far away for a buttery bokeh with either camera.

@vaibhavnichal 3 года назад

@@Jason_Hermann Thank you Jay for the quickest reply. I am satisfied with your advice. Looks like RX100 VI will be a better option for me. That will also give me a flexibility to shoot sports and actions.

I’m trying to decide between the Rx100 VA and the Rx100 VI. Which one would you recommend for a travel camera. I like that the VA has the build in ND filter and 1.8. But would the bigger zoom and additional features be worth the $300 upgrade. I’m also considering the canon G7x mark ii because I’m use to canon but the Sony’s have better features. Thanks for the help.

@Jason_Hermann 5 лет назад

Hello Dr Sullivan ;) It really depends on if you want that zoom and touchscreen I would say. Otherwise I would go for the faster lens and 3-0stop ND filter equipped RX100 VA... Really is personal preference. Depending on the types of trips, I would probably go for the zoom, but if I new I was taking lots of water shots and low light stuff, then I would go for the VA for the faster optic and ND filter... Not an easy decision, I here ya. The Canon also looks like a great option in the real world...

@marciomonteiro9251 5 лет назад

theres one thing you can't see , is that the VI drops from 2.8 to 5.4 very quickly as soon as you start to zoom in. so basically at 40mm is already at F.4 ps: I saw it in another review

@jordanrubinfilm 5 лет назад

Hey Jay- I think someone asked you this below, but since it’s been awhile I wondered if you might have more info. I used a friend’s Mark 6 and the color science for JPEGs was noticeably different than every RX100 I’ve owed or used before. It was more like a Canon 5d - specifically when it came to skin tones. I’m considering getting a Mark 5A but I wonder if that color science carried over since they released it after the 6. Any idea? I know the 5A is lacking the Slog3 - so maybe color enhancements didn’t make the cut across the board. I see a lot of people asking about it online and you always seem to have the most SONY intel- let me know what you think. Thanks! (PS Just to clarify - that color rendering on the 6 was excellent and preferred. That’s why I’m hoping it’s in the 5A.)

@Jason_Hermann 5 лет назад

I believe so based on the updated better image quality. You can also change the creative modes to alter the colors in a variety of ways. Portrait is one of the options, as is Neutral tones encase you were unaware. Those modes can also be customized to further adjust one way or another.

@serdelosreyes 2 года назад

Good video, thanks. Just a question. In Manual, when I select Flexible spot (to move my focus around) then Shutter Speed is disabled. Apparently, I have not full manual control: Apertures, Shutter Speed, focus, etc. Is it because I don't know how to make work or a camera limitation? Thanks. :)

@Jason_Hermann 2 года назад

You can't have the camera active flexible mode. You need to select the focus point separate from the exposure controls. Also, depending on which camera you have, touch focus is a great option!

Yes it's possible with one of the magnet filter kits like this one: amzn.to/2q2esyc You can then use a ND filter just like any other lens. The Canon g5x mark 2 is also a great option for sure, but it does not have a mic input and the auto focus is not near as good or fast as the RX100 VII.

I don't know about that, sorry. I did not read anything on that in the description and I did not notice and color differences like I did in the A7 III and A9 for example. If anything it's a very slight difference...

I tried to install timelapse app from playmemoriescameraapps.com, but the usb connection from camera to pc never successfully verified.. since i cannot see the application icon on the camera's menu, make me wondering is it compatible with the mark VA to install any apps?

The playmemories apps do not work on the RX100 VA. Sorry to inform you of that fact Abraham.

Paul Matthew Hill For around $40 you can get the Vello RC S2ii Shutterboss version II Timer which can be set for timelapses that run until your battery runs out, is great as a remote shutter and is generally better than the app with one exception. It cant stitch the photos into a movie like the app can, however, that is easy to do at the editing stage.

@stefanoehlin 5 лет назад

@@artistjoh its not possible to have external timelapse and powerbank at the same time. Also its another thing you need to bring with you where the app is built in. Crazy that sony not includes a timelapse built in such an expesive camera.

@artistjoh 5 лет назад

Stefan Öhlin The reason the Sony app store failed is because there were too many other options built into other cameras. The execs talk themselves into nickle and dime-ing us for fundamental features and tick off the camera users, and they wonder why few people pay the few dollars extra. In my case I was prepared to pay for the app but I could never get it to complete the transaction, so I ended up saying ‘stuff them’ and used alternatives. They can’t make many sales if the internet connections and software are flaky. The app concept might have looked good on paper to management but customers were mostly not impressed. All these companies make dumb decisions from time to time. This and the lack of fully articulated screens are Sony’s big moments of dumbness.

Thank you for amazing videos I have two questions 1. I have Rx100 V And A7C until now i have not found a reason to get the rx100 mark V. Can you recommend if there is a gimble can work for both rx100 and A7c 2. Do you have the setting to get that cinematic with background blurr on the A7C and rx100 mark V.

@Jason_Hermann Год назад

Hey there, The Ronin DJI RS3 Mini will work for both cameras: geni.us/aqJ3rx As far as cinema looking video goes, there is no setting specific for that on either of these cameras. It's just using a good lens at good angles with proper motion at the "correct" exposure for the given scene... Practice and using manual camera settings will allow for more creativity once you get them mastered... I have lots of tutorials on both cameras if you want to learn more!

@AbdulazizAsiry Год назад

@@Jason_Hermann thank you for quick answer how can i get the bokeh effect on these two cameras for photos and videos. What kind of settings that i should change.

@Jason_Hermann Год назад

It's hard to get good bokeh with such a small sensor, but you can if you are very close to your subject and the background is far away. I would set the aperture to the lowest number for this...

@AbdulazizAsiry Год назад

@@Jason_Hermann Thank you and about the A7C how can i get the Bokeh effect.

@Jason_Hermann Год назад

The A7c would be the same deal for maximum bokeh... Get as close as you can to your subject with the lowest aperture number and the background as far away as possible. Faster aperture lenses will give you more bokeh, but you can get bokeh with any lens on the A7C... I use the Sony FE 35mm f/1.8 Lens for my talking head footage in my recent videos for example and that is at f/1.8 on the A7C for reference.

@jrod8574 5 лет назад

This is the M6 right? Man i really want one of these. It upsets me they didn't add a MIC input. I have too many directional microphones to use but it didnt come with one. I'm up in the air on if i should still get one. $1200 wouldn't have been that bad had they simply added a MIC jack.

@Jason_Hermann 5 лет назад

No this is the 5a, not the 6. An yes, I agree about the mic jack... I don't know if Sony will ever ad one at this point.

@jrod8574 5 лет назад

@@Jason_Hermann it seems to be their pattern. What do you think they'll do with the M7 next year? You think it'll be more of an improvement than the M6? Based on their history and pattern of upgrades?

@Jason_Hermann 5 лет назад

That is a great question! New sensor probably, as it's a been a few models now with the same unit. Not really sure what else. I can't see the lens getting faster, but they might add more focal length.. 300mm maybe?

@jrod8574 5 лет назад

@@Jason_Hermann wow 300mm would be insane! I wonder if a bigger sensor would be better than what they have already.

@Jason_Hermann 5 лет назад

I don't think they will go bigger with the RX100 Series, just a new better sensor perhaps.. I do think there is a market for an APS-C sensor sized point and shoot though, so perhaps Sony will create that!

@SMP248 5 лет назад

I am having issues with this camera and finding it hard to get an answer why from Sony. I cant get any smaller than f11 aperture in any mode or possible combinations. Even after a full itialisation ( twice) it started out ok but decided after re programming the buttons it never moved past f11. I would welcome any possible remedies if this has happened to anyone else.

@tamasvarga67 5 лет назад

It doesn't go smaller than f11 but why would you want to go smaller than that with a 1" sensor camera? For the best image quality, you have to use f4-f5.6 and that's pretty much f11-f16 equivalent.

@SMP248 5 лет назад

@@tamasvarga67 it should go smaller, it did when I first had it and feedback from others say the same, the fact it doesn't now suggests an error somewhere regardless of the quality when smaller aperture is selected.

@tamasvarga67 5 лет назад

Alan Matkin No, it shouldn’t go smaller just do your research. RX100IV, V, VA have the same optics and their aperture range is f1,8/2,8 - f11. You are confusing it with something else...

@tamasvarga67 5 лет назад

@Alan Matkin Available aperture values in each shooting mode: "iAuto (F1.8/F11(W))/Program Auto (F1.8/F11(W))/Manual (F1.8/F11(W))/Shutter Priority (F1.8/F11(W))/Aperture Priority (F1.8/F11(W))" www.sony.com/electronics/cyber-shot-compact-cameras/dsc-rx100m5a/specifications

@PhotoinNaturaBonito 5 лет назад

I believe I found the answer, sent in by folks at B&H: if you look at the bottom of the camera body, it will have a label with serial number. The V will say DSC-RX100M5 and the VA will say DSC-RX100M5A.
