I love it's low light ability for a pocket cam and of course the dynamic range easily trumps my Canon S95. I love the fact that when it has trouble focusing, in most cases, it almost instantly switches to the huge focus area. However, the color accuracy is horrendous - approximately 50% worse than my Canon according to Imaging Resource. It's a pain to HAVE to post-process (PP) images from a P&S, but what's even more frustrating is that no amount of PP will get the color quite right in many cases. Some of the other issues are the extremely slow startup/shutdown times, the terrible IS, and the unreliable/inconsistent metering system. I am on my 3rd one, having sold/returned the other 2 and ready to ditch this one as well. I wonder if I will return though since I am certain that I will not find an equivalent pocket cam and the larger cams often get left home. Perhaps the Nikon P8000 will do the trick or the rumored Oly 1" sensor cam will turn out to be a reality ...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2361251099864607419.post-82204360271338556032013-12-27T00:23:24.385-08:002013-12-27T00:23:24.385-08:00No worries, there is also a couple of other reason...No worries, there is also a couple of other reasons in fact:<br /><br />1- When I want to use bounce flash, I don't want to be busy holding and pointing the flash at the ceiling, instead I put the bounce card and concentrate on taking pictures.<br /><br />2- When bouncing the flash to the cieleing by hand, some of it will hit the subject's face directly. The bounce card prevents any direct flash going through.<br /><br />And you know what, I also use it to bounce the flash to different directions, not always to the ceiling, I used it a few times to bounce to my right side, or behind my back.mshafikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09178862453786826299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2361251099864607419.post-16666000576433564342013-12-26T18:35:55.299-08:002013-12-26T18:35:55.299-08:00My bad!

The RX100 has a great sensor, but mind that the lens is only f/1.8 wide open, it quickly reaches f/4.9 at the long end.<br /><br />It certainly can fit your wife's purse, and a jeans pocket if it's not too tight. But I would not want to carry my RX100 like that, it would get scratched every time you take it out of your pocket.mshafikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09178862453786826299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2361251099864607419.post-3209227012986394172013-12-04T20:13:02.027-08:002013-12-04T20:13:02.027-08:00Thanks for your reply.

I agree with you, NEX series have good sensor but IMO RX100 is still better. I'm always facing with problem where I want to go out and had a dilemma: which lens should I take with me?19mm or 30mm?or 18-55mm? The latter one always have a problem in low light and slow. The other two is a prime, what if u have to zoom out or zoom in. Manual lens is out of story here. Not to mention one camera bag that I have to carry.<br /><br />As a conclusion, buy RX100 (or other P&S) better. Can fit my jeans or even my wife's handbag!
