Sony RX0 Ultra-Compact Waterproof/Shockproof Camera

Future cult stills cam
Used for stills, I really believe the RX0's sublime simplicity makes it more versatile, not less so. At least that's how it's worked out for me. Use mine almost daily, often as my A camera. I'm very pleased with the images, and people are generally amazed what "that little camera" can do, but it can be hard to display the images on a scale big enough for the amazing detail to even show. The Zero has revived my love of photography at a very basic level! Great product, and the accessories I've gotten are first-rate also!

Such promise, such disappointment
I am a huge fan of the Sony A7S and A7R cameras. I use them for all my videography, and most of my photography. I pre-ordered an RX0 as a replacement for my GoPro. I was so excited to get a high-quality image out of a tiny camera. My excitement was dashed immediately by an overheating shutdown about 6 minutes into my first recording. I let it cool down and tried again. Overheated again, in a 68-degree room. $700 for a camera that simply doesn't work? Please, Sony, please please please fix this in a firmware update. Please.

I exchanged a GoPro Hero6 for the Sony RX0
The Sony has significantly better image quality (Sony 1080p looks better than GoPro 4k), more latitude for color correction and no image distortion. If I want stabilized footage without a tripod, I'll have to use a gimbal. However, while testing the Hero6 I concluded that this is also true of that camera, whose stabilization is subject to corrective jitters and simply not what it is cracked up to be. For me, and while it requires an accessory fil... Show More

Take care
Well, I have just bought this camera, and on its first battery charging, the usb port cover has been lost ( very easy to loose). I have contacted BH and Sony. Sony authorized has sent me its price ( USD 99.00 for a very small plastic piece ), and even worse, they dont have these replacement parts. BH said they cant help me, Sony costumer service is weak, I nor even dont recomend buying this camera, as ai dont recomend any sony product.

bad for video
the unit overheats in just about any environment and turns off. to me, this makes the unit unreliable and therefore USELESS. I'm returning it asap. should never waisted my time in the first place.

Sony's new incomprehensible menu system.
I feel like I'm deciphering an inscription on the walls of the Pyramid. You have to print the manual to decipher the meaning of these bizarro pictograms.

Overheats
Overheats in a 70 room within about 10 minutes, on standby. If this camera has desirable features, they don't count for anything, because it can't even stay on in normal conditions.

waterproof, shockproof, 1" sensor, 960fps
full functionality with the Sony App, spectacular for incognito street photography with RX100 sensor, and it's waterproof... Just wish I could dial the aperture, and it could have S-LOG3 as an option!

Amazing and Terrible
The amazing: So cool and tiny. 4:2:2 4K image out of the HDMI out is worth way more than its current price point. Waterproof 1080p in Slog2 is pretty amazing, as well. The terrible: When connected to its app, it overheats almost instantly. The battery life is also terrible. The focus is miserable. Buy it if you have the cash. Don't buy it if you don't. I toss it in my kit to use as a C or D cam and will continue to do so despite it's many flaws. Sony will probably address some of these flaws in a firmware update.

RX0 is way better than the GoPro
Unless you need a fish-eye/wide-angle lens, the Sony RX0 is the small action camera you want to buy. If you need a wider lens than opt for the GoPro. Pro: Great Lens Slow-motion modes Includes most of the functionality that a Sony Mirrorless deliver. (e.g. slog-2 picture profile) Cons: Buffer time in 480fps and 960fps modes Poor quality at low light conditions

Great little package, but too many compromises.
Some thoughts after one week of use... -great image quality at base iso (125) -great robust construction. -not the same chip as used in the RX100 series as people had mentioned during the announcement. this one is only 15mp. -finally raw files in a camera of this size -no lens distortion -no PlayMemories apps. wish there was one for built in time-lapse. -f4 was probably chosen for balance of speed and depth of field on the 1 sensor, but its too s...

Don't buy it. Overheats, overpriced, overhyped
I was pretty excited about this product, until I started using it. First off the menus are cumbersome to navigate on a tiny screen with tiny buttons. Users of other Sony cameras in the alpha series will find the menus familiar and will have an easier time, but still total hassle to figure out. Pairing with the play memories app, wasn't too bad, (though I am mildly concerned as to why I get so many warnings from iOS about the security of whatever ... Show More

image quality in low light is BAD!!!
I was waiting for this small beauty to replace all the bad action cameras that are available from GoPro and competitors. I was looking for a small HD camera with low light capabilities and with an external power option and video out plug. This 1 inch sensor for some reason gives very bad image quality inn low light (both in video and still modes). not sure why but the completion is poor and you can actually see the pixels blur... The unit is very... Show More
