  • Sony RX100Vii (RX100M7) Camera Review - In this review I look at why this compact camera is still able to survive in an era where most compact cameras have 'died-a-death' at the hands of smart phones. I will also review how I can capture professional looking images with a camera that has a small 1-inch sensor (small compared to an Alpha camera but large when compared to a smart phone). I look at some of the camera settings I chose to use to keep the ISO low and how to create figure/ground separation when shooting character portraits.

    I own an RX100 VII. Whenever I start shopping for a more capable camera, I watch this video. It makes me realize I don't need better gear, I need to become a capable photographer. It is a pleasure to watch a pro explain the process and I am always inspired by what is possible to achieve with my very own camera.

    My RX100 VII got the LCD screen scratched. I've purchased an LCD screen protector, but I also had an RX100 Mark 1 with a badly scratched screen and a soft screen protector that came with it from the factory was easy to remove. With my scratched VII, I can't seem to get a corner lifted up and wonder if it does or doesn't have a screen protector that came with it. Does anyone know?

    I have an A7RIII that is my main camera however I bought the RX100 VII for my trip to the Caribbean because I didn’t want to carry a lot of gear. I got some pretty nice pictures that I even print and put on my wall at my office. The down side is in low light situations but is the trade off you pay for a camera thats small. With the RX100 m7 you can change the focus frame color to red....thats a huge Plus of this camera...Sony please please release a firmware for the A7RIII that allow us to change the focus frame color. Well in regards to the Rx100 I reallyy recommend it 100%.

    wow, the images that you took are stunning! I would never thought that it’s possible to take pictures like that on a camera with 1 inch sensor. Sony packed great technologies in this camera, that’s for sure, but your photo skills are out of this world

    This is the best breakdown of a camera's capabilities I have ever seen on UA-cam. This is first time I have ever come across your channel. Thank you so much for showing real-world indepth analysis, very rare to find this on UA-cam. Instant subscribe. Thank you.

    Not only are you presenting the camera but you are also helping me learn about aperture and shutter speed. Double thanks! I have been eyeing this camera for street photography (film gets a bit too expensive) and this camera seems to be a good and fast tool for that.

    What a great review again! I was thinking for a while to get a small pocket one (have a73, a7r3), but not sure of which. RX100VII s smaller aperture concerns me a little, that is main reason to get it. But your video convinced me ! It s also a great teaching video as always. Thank you so much Mark! (Honestly, Sony owe you big as their imaging ambassador. Yes they have great product, but to convince people to buy into it, will need someone like you with deeper understanding and great skill of communication, to convey the message as honest as possible)

    Best review I’ve seen on this camera!

  • @markhodnett2251

    I've probably watched 30 or so reviews (other authors) till now in my search for a small premium camera and I haven't commented on any of those. I did want to say thanks for this review, though. You address the most important issue, in my view, which is "what image quality can I expect out of this camera" and you give examples. The icing on the cake was simply enjoying your work product, learning more about photography in general, and great tips specific to this camera. Really well done. Thank you!

    Love the format of this video review- a focus on the images. It took me a few videos for the UA-cam algorithm to suggest yours, but it beats the rest by a mile. Their review focused more on the speaker/themselves than the images they took. I really learned a lot from this video and appreciate your work. Thanks!
