I guess Sony somehow needs to put some limitations on the RX100. Like the 5mins recording limit and no mic jack. Otherwise it might hurt their a6400 line. And because this RX0 has a fixed lens. So they can sort of put the mic jack back plus no recording limit 😉
I wish so much it were ever so slightly larger (if necessary) to have an F1.8 lens, like the old RX100...then it would be the absolute perfect camera for almost everyone I know with kids or pets. It's indestructible, and small enough to have with you at all times.
Just wanna say the main footage in this video has some excellent colour grading! Beautifully warm, yet still natural - good job! Not sure how I feel about the RX0 for myself though. Looks pretty robust, and would do well to fit in some obscure places on a set with bigger Sony cameras to match.
Tiny so as to avoid weird looks, mic jack, decent sensor size, 4k30 AND 1080p w/ high FPS options for slo-mo, focal length that is equivalent to 24mm, tripod screwy thing for a small gimbal to help stabilize the scene, not THAT expensive, flippy screen (even if vertical), and so on... paging Camera Conspiracies! Could this be the one???
It gets confused because of ND filter. Who needs the ND for this camera anyway. Or may be GoPro + Kai wanted to make us sceptical about this Sony. Because as we see the video is sponsored by squarespace, an unrelated company. ;)
That setup is too funny hahahhaa. What a strange little camera. I feel like this would be a great one for UA-camr's to ride on top of cameras while shooting. Might be good to document the process.
Rodrigo Rodriguez camera has no AF-C so unfortunately it’ll always look out of focus unless your always at the same distance from when you press record.
If you're wondering what possible use these tiny cameras can be for "real" video and not just breaking clavicles on bicycles, I've found the GoPro Hero 7 Black to be an absolute beast for shooting music, dance, and drama rehearsals and K-8 classroom instruction and playground games.
Awesome review, Kai. Nice product. Your comments had me ROFL. I had to watch it a couple of times to get the references. That adult nappies sequence was classic. Please keep up the great work. I always look forward to your reviews and work.
@@ronaldso5994The IQ is pretty good for its size with smooth motion. Of course we can't compare this with other full frame sensor's. OP is excellent for travel / vlogging / super quick turn-on-and-shoot kind of situation. It might also be good for some Pro short films with filters and planning.
Love this little cam, reminds me my old Sony QX10. When I was in NYC, Rome, and Paris, lots people asked about the QX10 because it just so small~! I'm gonna wait a bit for next year when the price comes down a bit. Thanks for the cool review.
I like that this has a bigger sensor than the go pro and the mic in this acutally sounds pretty proper. This def souds like the diretion that gopro should be heading. If this had the same IS as go pro it would be flawless.
I don't really care about the small camera, but the footage taken with the 24-70/4 makes me want to buy it right now. It almost has the plasticity as the old 35-70 C/Y lens. Amazing!
The Hero 7 has a wide angle and fantastic image stabilization, the Osmo Pocket has a gimbal, the RX0 II has ...no AF-C and costs nearly twice as much. Well done Sony!
It's actually a very good idea. I have older Sony action cameras that I don't use anymore that produce superb image quality compared to any dashcam out there. If only Sony would update the firmware to make them a dashcam (turn on with power and true loop recording)
Hi Kai, Can you power the RXO ii off a 5v power bank whilst recording 4K externally? And internally? And Is it 8 bit or 10 bit? Haven’t got my hands on one as not available in UK yet but would love to know. Cheers Z
Wow. Great work Sony! They have actually created something that Kai W didn't absolutely shit on! (Very rare these days). Better yet, they've actually come up with a true competitor for the GoPro. Something with crazy features that could attract someone away from GoPro's awesome branding.
Camera manufacturers take note, fit a flippy forward facing screen and get good reviews from UA-camrs, not that important to most of us, but pretty much everyone is going to UA-cam for buying advice.
Oh man, if only it was a little cheaper this would be a fantastic vlogging camera for me to always have in my pocket! Love that it has the flip up screen and the mic input. Ah well, going to stick with my old Panasonic G6 and its SLR Magic 8mm lens, until I can afford splurging out for a cheap secondhand Panasonic G85
@6:26 Does anyone know what cover he is using for the microphone? I want to take my dead cat fur cover off and replace it with a small windshield like his because the dead cat fur is just so bulky! Thanks!
Sony: good image quality, no 4K60p. DJI: with gimbal, no live streaming. GoPro: live streaming, no gimbal. Insta360: 360, low image quality. Lucky Lok didn't slap the whole branch down the bridge when he waved the insects.
I'm having a hard time finding whether this has external power wake up? Planning on using it in livestreaming UW-rugby and because of that it will be closed in a waterproof case after which i cant access the buttons.

Lok lok lok lok lok lok. So happy to see him with Kai again!!!!!
If this small camera can fit a mic jack, why on earth can't they put a mic jack on cameras like RX100 or GX7??
$$$$ more $$$$

No room.
Cause they're Sony. Every two years they need something to upgrade. In 2021 the RX-100 VII will finally have an audio jack.
Segmentation.
His voice and accent is very very satisfying to listen to plus his choice of words makes it even more great
Your videos are always so AMAZING, you have all the elements that keep me watching 100% of your content.

All the shots from it looked out of focus. Was it just me?
It might be the filter
Probably because of the ND filter. Look at the shots towards end without it
It's not just you. It IS out of focus because it only has AF-S, no AF-C, unfortunately, as mentioned by some other reviewer.
It gets confused because of ND filter. Who needs the ND for this camera anyway.
Or may be GoPro + Kai wanted to make us sceptical about this Sony. Because as we see the video is sponsored by squarespace, an unrelated company. ;)
Actually you need to re hit the shutter button to re focus when switching distances significantly.
Nobody:
Sony: Let's add a flip screen
Everyone: (*surprised pikachu*)
That setup is too funny hahahhaa. What a strange little camera. I feel like this would be a great one for UA-camr's to ride on top of cameras while shooting. Might be good to document the process.
He was using an external mic to record the sound
lol, 6:19, he has an ND filter and turned the light on in sunset :)
More "The F word" episodes please!
6:25 Either that filter needs some cleaning or you need a new one, cause the footage looks blurry and very hazy.
Rodrigo Rodriguez camera has no AF-C so unfortunately it’ll always look out of focus unless your always at the same distance from when you press record.
Looks like a great little camera except for one small trivial detail: IT JUST CAN'T FOCUS
And $800 price tag. Nice try Sony now get back to the drawing board :)
It can focus Nd filter gets it confused
@@MPD90 what do you mean no facts?
I think I can sneak this camera into concerts and shoot in 4k. 30 minute battery life will be an issue.
Matthew Livingston osmo pocket
Just use a gopro..

Really love the work Kai. I was also actually looking forward to this review thanks
can't wait for Camera Conspiracy check this out.
hes gonna shit on it lmao. I can just feel it
still no ibis and 40k 60. lol
Sony users: "We want a flippy screen."
Sony: RX0 ii
Sony users "We want AF-C"
Sony "you won't need it, blurry videos are perfectly acceptable at this price point!"
Wonderfully made. I laughed, I giggled, and I learned something new. You did it again!
So happy to see him with Kai again!!!
Great for vlogging, but I'm personally excited to use it as a tabletop rig. That flip screen is going to be super handy!
能否推薦關於Sony RX0 II相關的配件（例如金屬的外殼等）資訊有？例如有推薦實體與線上店家等？
Camera Conspiracies will be a happy man...
All he wants is the perfect cameraaaa.
Still will want the full frame. And he wouldn't have that channel if he ever became happy...
No AF-C. He'll hate it.
No slightly blurry background and no AF-C, so... but yeah, waiting for his review on this 😂
David S can’t wait to watch his thoughts on this 🤣
Aw i love seeing Lok's face
Yes!!!
Most detailed review to date? Kai is doing great things. Thumbs up if you agree!
Really liked seeing Kai and Lok doing a vid together!!!
His voice is the only reason I watch his videos.
best bromance:
4: Rajesh - Howard
3: Walter White - Jesse Pinkman
2: JD - Chris
1: Lok - Kai
GLAD LOYK IS BACK TO THE TEAM
That rolling shutter, makes me appreciate my Sony FDR x3000.
Digital Rev died when they lost this man
they became boring as heck
Awesome review, Kai. Nice product. Your comments had me ROFL. I had to watch it a couple of times to get the references. That adult nappies sequence was classic. Please keep up the great work. I always look forward to your reviews and work.
The built in mic sounded shockingly good
Image is washed out and out of focus...and for $698 USD..I think I will stick with the Osmo Pocket for now.
How are the image quality for the pocket?
@@ronaldso5994The IQ is pretty good for its size with smooth motion. Of course we can't compare this with other full frame sensor's.

Notice how we all stopped watching digital rev after kai left lol
I like that this has a bigger sensor than the go pro and the mic in this acutally sounds pretty proper. This def souds like the diretion that gopro should be heading. If this had the same IS as go pro it would be flawless.
sadly gopro gotten worst
Nice MOD Kai.....mods, mods, we are the mods.....we are, we are, we are the mods! Sorry i love that film, great review Kai.
I don't really care about the small camera, but the footage taken with the 24-70/4 makes me want to buy it right now. It almost has the plasticity as the old 35-70 C/Y lens. Amazing!
Almost all of the segments filmed with RX0 are out of focus, and you don't even mention it in the end?
Go back to 6:15 where Kai explains the need to pre-check focus.
Your complaint is covered in the video and you don't even pay attention to it?
Wow super useful information video
Omg as soon as he said it shoots in 4K my video resolution dropped to 144p! XD
That looks legit cool, I'm very tempted
I hit like before I watch Kai's videos!!!
Great video, I love the new graphics you're doing! Keep it up!
1) Lok appears...🦗
2) Kai: where are all the flies coming from? 🤔
Funny as ever, I was the werido on the tram laughing to myself when I saw the vlog setup !
It's so simple but this shit really just changed the whole vlogging game. GoPro just crapped their pants.
Yeaahhh.. kailok is back...
The Hero 7 has a wide angle and fantastic image stabilization, the Osmo Pocket has a gimbal, the RX0 II has ...no AF-C and costs nearly twice as much. Well done Sony!
Sony put famous GH5 autofocus into this.
"It's the best thing since.... SLICED BREAD! 🍞" 😂 Commentary is always the best coming from Kai. Ya'll gotta agree on that! haha
Camera conspiracies where you at!?!?
Mr Home Loans at the dentist getting his teeth cleaned... for the next 7 months
I think Kai and iPhonedo should do a collaborative droll off! : )
If that’s a vlogging Camera, then why no AF-C? 🤔🤔
DSI Pictures cause it’s expensive garbage, no AF-C is useless for vlogging
You're the reason I started my youtube channel thanks for helping me. Thanks for the review of the Sony was just looking to replace our GoPro
WOW! Awesome camera! Now we just need IBIS in that thing.
No IBIS, but electronic
GOOD TO SEE THE OLD FRIEND!!!!!!!!
Sony rocks again!!
Dang. I think I'm convinced on this camera.
Good day, just saw a video talking about the coming of the Sony a8s, cant wait to hear your thoughts, keep up good work
Nice video Kai W.
Sony has good cameras, and this is a really a great upgrade.
might use one as a dash cam hahahaha
It's actually a very good idea.
I have older Sony action cameras that I don't use anymore that produce superb image quality compared to any dashcam out there.
If only Sony would update the firmware to make them a dashcam (turn on with power and true loop recording)
most likely will overheat
I got the adult nappies out when you said "adult nappies"... LOL
Just bought an a7iii... But i want this
Nicely done Kai!
Sony Coudn't recognize Lok on Kai's Channel , so went Out of Focus.
They did it. Now I can replace my go pro and rx100. Still wouldn’t replace my Oslo pocket because a gimbal that small uffff. But it’s awsome!
What's that light mounted on top? (didn't see any links or mentions so far in the comments)
This looks significantly better than a GoPro imho
Much larger sensor and a much better lens than anything out there of this size
30 minute battery life. Useless for me! Sticking with gopro.
Small sensor? The website that recommended me said it was a 1 inch. Off to research I shall go lol
It's a NO BRAINER purchase. I'll definitely but it once it's available.
Hi Kai,
Can you power the RXO ii off a 5v power bank whilst recording 4K externally? And internally? And Is it 8 bit or 10 bit? Haven’t got my hands on one as not available in UK yet but would love to know. Cheers Z
Wow. Great work Sony! They have actually created something that Kai W didn't absolutely shit on! (Very rare these days). Better yet, they've actually come up with a true competitor for the GoPro. Something with crazy features that could attract someone away from GoPro's awesome branding.
$600 (US) is kinda high but it looks very tempting 🤔🤔🤔
This is actually a good merge with a vlogging camera and an action cam. It even has a mic input.
it doesn't even have continuous auto focus. hard pass.
Camera manufacturers take note, fit a flippy forward facing screen and get good reviews from UA-camrs, not that important to most of us, but pretty much everyone is going to UA-cam for buying advice.
The internal mic is incredible, woah. I own a Hero 7 Black, and the mic is not nearly as good.
Yes ! Logger(Vlogger) ' Buckin' Billy Ray Smith' would love this.........
I won't believe it, but they've added a medium format sensor with IBIS!
rickifyful but how many card slots?!
@@JSpradley123 It doesn't have any card slots. Your stuff gets uploaded directly to the cloud.
When a camera the size of a matchbox has better specs than a 3000$ mirrorless...
Speedmaster Professional, great taste Kai :)
*_TILTY FLIPPY SCREEEEN_*
Why is no one freaking out that Lok is back
Ok sir
Oh man, if only it was a little cheaper this would be a fantastic vlogging camera for me to always have in my pocket! Love that it has the flip up screen and the mic input.
Ah well, going to stick with my old Panasonic G6 and its SLR Magic 8mm lens, until I can afford splurging out for a cheap secondhand Panasonic G85
The internal mic sounds great!
Ok waiting for Camera conspiracies now... come on Kasey...
Sasha Gogosh Casey has done his!!!
@@RANDassociatesinc woohooo
your sound quality is insane. which mic are you using? thx
The one on his A camera, not the RX0 II, is the Rode Filmmaker Kit: www.cliftoncameras.co.uk/Rode-Filmmaker-Kit
@6:26 Does anyone know what cover he is using for the microphone? I want to take my dead cat fur cover off and replace it with a small windshield like his because the dead cat fur is just so bulky! Thanks!
Waiting for Kasey's take on this, this thing looks great for what it is.
No AF-C? Let's wait for V3!!!
hahahah "Johnny 5 alive" YES!!!!
This looks like an awesome camera. Do you have any suggestions for budget cameras?
Sony: good image quality, no 4K60p.
DJI: with gimbal, no live streaming.
GoPro: live streaming, no gimbal.
Insta360: 360, low image quality.
Lucky Lok didn't slap the whole branch down the bridge when he waved the insects.
I'm having a hard time finding whether this has external power wake up? Planning on using it in livestreaming UW-rugby and because of that it will be closed in a waterproof case after which i cant access the buttons.
Here is the foundation of everything in life, a cage.
That's deep.
around 6:00 or so those few 4k clips seem kinda missed focus? maybe because of ND?
Nice Speedy, Kai.
2019 we need more performance and technology, not gadgets even if those gadgets can be useful sometimes!
Thanks for your work and shares!
