I found you guys last night researching for my 21 days in Peru next month and I'm loving your content! I watched the whole Peru series and really enjoyed it. I'll mostly be paragliding in Lima and I was stoked to see some footage of that. Anyways, I just wanted to say thanks for being up front that Sony paid you to make this video. I'd rather hear that up front so I know that the review MAY BE tainted while I'm watching it rather than at the end of the video, making me feel like i wasn't told all the information up front. Great video, and I'm definitely adding this to the list of cameras I'm researching.

Would love to see more mini tutorial videos on how to use the camera while filming travel vids.

@Yankeededandy62 6 жыл бұрын

Justified advertisement for the little SONY. I bought it myself and love it as a companion (not replacement) of a big rig Canon DSLR on our travels. But some buts remain: The body and the buttons are tiny, making it clumsy to operate especially if you want to use manual settings. I also really, really miss a touchscreen, e.g. to set a focus point. Absolutely awesome is the electronic viewfinder though. In short: I think the RX100 is pretty much perfect for video. For photos it's great if you have the time to fiddle with its settings (e.g. landscape pictures) or just automatic point and shoot. For real action shots and full control, I prefer a hefty DSLR with big a$$ buttons that I can operate blindly at a fraction of a second. That said, great channel Vagabrothers.

Priorities, dude... if you’re into traveling, photography or filmmaking and has a low budget, this is the one. Also yes, for semi-professional to professional filmmaking, $1000 is cheap. Do some research on camera prices.

@limpfishyes 6 жыл бұрын

Milena Batelli yes it's relative. But this is squarely aimed at 'travelers on a budget' not semi pro videographer on a budget. The fact that they're explaining such basics as depth of field tells you that this video, sorry ad, isn't aimed at semi pro photographers. A camera for traveler on a budget isn't a $1000 camera.

Great video VagaBrothers!!! I do like the RX100 series but the problem is the small buttons for my massive hands. It's almost there, would be nice if there is a touchscreen for menu navigation, focusing, and touch shutter. Also, you forgot to mention the lens is 1.8f-2.8 and the slick electronic viewfinder that pops out for bright days or to focus on the shot. People underestimate having a small camera for travel since it does one thing well along with a phone. But totally torn between an RX100 series (3, 4, or 5), Lumix LX10/15, or the older LX100 which all have fast zoom lenses, 4K capabilities, and wireless connectivity.
