Sony RX100 Mk III In Store

The new Sony Mk III is on the shelf right now. Looks like the Mk II except there is a real electronic viewfinder at the northwest corner so you can use it in the brightest sun.

The sensor is the 1" size and it packs 20 megapixels on there. The LCD screen folds over 180º. there is a 24-70 f:1.8-2.8 equivalent lens.

And it has that viewfinder. You pop it up and then pull the back section towards you. It parks back into the body with a reverse sequence. It has a diopter adjustment. At my age I feel uncomfortable using the word " awesome " but this idea actually is. It means you get to use the camera like a camera rather than like a Gameboy or a bar of soap.

Roll on the technology migrating into more of the Sony range - they have had a bright idea.
