I purchased the RX10 about a year ago to use as a video camera to video lectures from the back of a hall in low light. I was new to digital photography having lost interest on the conversion to digital camera and I did not understand about sensor sizes assuming the RX10 would be full frame because of the price. I also did not understand that 2.8 does not mean 2.8 with smaller sensors. So for a while I was feeling rather jibbed. However, I decided to persevere with the camera and get what I could out of it. And I must say the more I use it the better I like it. It has taken some really good footage under adverse conditions. The auto focus is good, the image stabilization is good, the light meter is good but you have to be careful when to use the spot setting and when not to. In doubt use the wide setting. I like the slow zoom; if you are projecting on to a large screen you do not want fast zooming. One pleasant surprise is the quality of the on-camera mic which does a very good job for what it is. I find the camera rather difficult to hold because of the weight and small grip but I am getting more used to that. If I buy another camera for video I would probably buy a Panasonic G7 but I am certainly gaining more respect for the RX10 and getting some very good results. And as you say, the lens comes with the camera price and the lens is flexible enough for my needs. Thank you very much for your review.

Hi. During recording, you can make changes of ?: ISO, shutter speed, WB, Exposition compensation EV, activate and deactivate zebra and focus pickin, change to manual focus and back? Can you select the type of focus, like a wide and pointing zone? And in low light, with a led light going okay?

Great review! I was amazed by this camera when it was announced because of the great features compared to a DSLR, the built in lens that it comes with is quite impressive with the 2.8 aperture all the way to 200mm! And also the hability to record 1080p@60fps wich is something I wish my Canon had! Sometimes I get frustrated when I'm making videos on the go and keep switching lenses, this camera is better suited for this scenarios where you are just recording while you travel

You should take a look at Panasonic micro 4/3. You say that there´s no better camera for 1000 $ dollars while GH3 or even the G6 are cheaper and have a much better image quality than the RX10. Aliasing and moiré are much lower than in Canon cameras (lower even than in the BMPCC), they have better low-light capabilities, etc...

@marike1100 10 жыл бұрын

The RX10 is 1300 USD in the US more expensive than the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema camera, the Panasonic GH3, and approaching the price of the GH4 (which shoots 4K). At these prices, it's hard to think of any other these as "entry level". And since so many pros are doing incredible work with low-end DSLRs, I'm not sure I'd recommend that a newbie rush out and buy such a pricey camera.

I disagree, when Nikon releases the D4s, they name it as having "professional" video, when it can only shoot 1080p? It has the same aliasing problems as the D4, poor colour representation and mushy details. I take your point that Nikon's aps-c cameras may be catching up, but to say that the video capabilities are "great" is an over statement.

that is true but in that range of camera's nothing has changed. The only real difference between the 600D and the 650D/ 700D ( which are basically the same camera with a different name) is the auto focus in video mode ( which is unusable anyway, and creative filters the no on ever uses) so as a first camera spend less money buying the 600D so that money that you save, can go on lens and other things. That's why i recommend it

@legodudes2000member 9 жыл бұрын

You can download Magic Lantern so you can record RAW and HDR on the t2i. A DSLR is more adaptable. I was just saying the 17-40 as a example. you are able to purchase hundreds of lenses compared to the rx10. the T2i is $200 used and the T3i is $400 brand new. this leaves you with $700 or $500 on a lens. if you are planning to spend $900 on a camera that will be obsolete in 5 years then go ahead. it takes a while for a lens to age. So, once the T2i, or any DSLR goes out of date, then all you would have to do is buy a new body. sure the rx10 my be a good camera. But, a DSLR is a better choice for a beginner filmmaker and for the long run. Lars Isaksen

Here is the deal boys and girls; This camera would have cost about $ 15,000.00 12 years ago and if you are complaining about the cost of the RX10 and what it does for the money, then you are probably in the wrong business/hobby. That's the difference of being Professional and Amateur, amateur like 80% of the You Tubers, that think it's so expensive and the Pros think sh@# that's a lot for so little money.

On the same level the Olympus Stylus 1 is much more cheaper. Same quality (specs at least) and type of lens (28-300 F2.8) in a small body. DSLR. They'are dead man. The body may be cheaper (a T4 you say) but buy a good lens kit 24-70 and 70-200 and you'll spend a fortune. Here you got everything. Not good, it's pretty good. Of course it not an Alexa, or F5, but if you have the market for this cameras then you're watching the wrong videos man...

After seeing this video I really cannot see why this would be the best or even a very good videocamera and around 1000$ I do not consider "entry level". My guess is that this was a paid commercial for Sony. Shame on you F&J if you did get paid for liking the DX10. Already a Nikon D3300 with two lenses is cheaper and certainly some HD videocamera's are. Bad video on a good channel. Please don't do this again :)
