Nothing pumps me up when I have locked in on a difficult bird shot and I let it RIP !!!! Absolutely love that sound of it just being locked in and going full throttle!!.. thanks so much bud for your videos!! I just like many other people on here have purchased this camera as a result of your awesome commentary and really getting to the daily intricacies and how you apply the finer elements in detail..
very kind words thankyou so much
I agree with Gothic Serpant-99 I also purchased this camera through watching your vlogs and still learning but getting better all the time, Thanks Stuart Quality vids.
Even in 2023 it is still the top of the pack. I just bought one, I never thought I would buy one of these super-zoom bridge cameras. It is amazing for it's size and sharpness. With modern noise reduction software, high ISO isn't a big issue either.
enjoy it . it has prolevel features in it so pretty much up there with the a9 body for speed
may you recommend cheap noise reduction softwares sir
Totally agree with your comments, thanks for the tip on the ceramic coating, great idea. I too waiting for the M5
thanks for watching and fingers crossed
I love your videos, very down to earth and I love my RX10 mk4. I use Nikon z5 for very wide angle and shallow DOF and the Sony for everything else. I also own a lot of Micro 4/3 kit too but I haven't used it since I bought the Sony and Nikon. Thanks again for all your excellent vids.
Thanks for the kind words and for watching
Had mine since 2022, just getting the hang of it now, probably understand it in a year or two. Good kit!
Quite right no camera is perfect even the Sony A1. Often asked what camera to start with and this has to be right up there for beginners ! Awesome 4 years old without replacement unusual these days ! Enjoyed the video !👍😍
thankyou :) for watching btw i subbed to your channel also
Just stumbled across your video as I'm looking at what of these for holidays and video duties as an all in one package. Refreshing to watch a user review of something that has really been used for sometime, which allows us to see what the camera is 'Really' like. Brilliant stuff 👍
Thanks for watching its still awesome even today
Been absolutely loving this camera! The slow motion is unbelievable once you understand how to physically move to keep focus plane. Been the perfect adventure cam, macro up close or reach out and touch things in the distance. Brilliant!
Your channel was the greatest resource for me researching this camera online. I find myself tuning in just to hear you talk while I work, since you have a calming presence Stuart. Cheers 😎
Really please you are loving the camera and thanks for the kind words i just try and keep it real and honest. Did you know you can manually focus the camera during hfr once you remember which direction to move the focus dial lol
@@sjm.photos AH that’s right I forgot! Been mostly doing macro stuff so the focal distance is so small I’ve been using my body to feel it out which is fun too. Thanks for the tip!
Agreed the slow-mo is one of my favorite features. Use it all the time.
I KNOW !! I am such a dork .. When I nail my HFR vid and review it I hear the National Geographic music playing in my mind ...
@@MrBillkaz Haha yes I can’t help but think “This is nature documentary quality!”
Just replaced my III, 8years old, with a IV. I’ve had A7s, A6000s, RX100VII and now a Fuji X-H2 but still love the speed and flexibility of the 10. It’s like the Swiss Army knife of cameras.
Awesome and yep thats a great way to describe it
Thanks
Just bought the rx 10 iiii for surf and travel photography
Thanks for your info
Be in touch
John
Re Memory Card, I have also stuck a small piece of flexible Gaffer Tape to it so that it is easier to grab hold of and extract.
Thanks for all your advice, Stuart. It is much appreciated.
Watching all your videos helped me decide to buy this a few weeks ago. Loving using it despite it’s age and the possibility of a newer version. I still got the mk4 based on the current deals and I figured the mk5 would be a lot more money.
so many good cameras out there today and its still holding its own. yep not perfect but 90% of the time its amazing
Same thanks bro
I've read, albeit very little but from what I've read I heard they might not be coming out with one.. at least for any time in the near future..
Thanks for vids, lovely to see your photos and info on this camera.. Regards
thankyou for the kind words
Nice video, you & I have the same niggles, but overall it’s an awesome piece of kit. Be lovely to see an upgrade. It took an unintentional dunk in Lake Michigan & survived!! Nice to see the few pictures of Dungeness.
Keep well
cheers john , glad urs is ok. and that old boat is now no more some idiots set it on fire.
@@sjm.photos That sucks, that’s been there forever. Bloody vandals!
Keep well.
@@Dolmen254 yep some very idiotic people on this planet and thanks you too
Oh one more thing lol every time I get anxiety or nerves about maybe me using it too much and overworking it I always think about you and your annual celebrations of this camera
Amazing photos! thanks for sharing, very talented. Would you recommend this for basketball and baseball video/photos. The 24fps and slow motion seems like it would be perfect for that.
aslong as the light is good it will be totally fine for it. the camera is basically a mini A9 that sensor is super fast read out so is great for high speed subjects like sport, thankyou for the kind words
I have full frame cameras. But, I'm always impressed with shots from this do everything camera. Great travel camera.
yep its amazing really how it keeps up so well with the big boys
Thanks for the video. Like that you’ve done the cons as well as the pros. I’m looking into purchasing this for travel and generally throwing in the car when I don’t want to lug around my canon gear. I’m like a lot of others, holding on the see if the v is going to be released at any time but after five years it’s not looking likely. Guess I’m still going to get something decent regardless. Cheers
no probs thanks for watching . the rx10iv is still in the top 10 cameras ever made ever id say its awesome even if they never released a mkv it still captures amazing shots
Love this camera for bird photography. So often I've been with photographers with full frame cameras and huge lenses who've missed shots due to the cumbersome of having to move a big weight and focus etc. and I've come home with photos.
Yep also ive got shots where others have been on wide angle lenses and watch them struggling to swap lenses before a moment is missed while ive just zoomed in and got the shots
I have watched this camera and your videos for years now and finally...finally ive got a new one on the way....
Cool stuff
I just pulled it out of the box. It is a beast
@@DouglasJLee-hu3ep deffo is
Subscribed. I watched many of your videos in the past, but never subscribed. After having seen the pictures you have shown in this video I have decided to stop watching lots of other gear videos and start watching your videos of RX10 mk4 to learn how to get the most out of it.
I must confess I still want a Fuji X100V to complement my Sony RX10 mk4, but too expensive, so I will try to hold horses... 😂
thankyou so much. i try to be as real as possible no scripts so im not perfect or as slick as the other youtubers out there but i hope i can show people what is really possible and maybe share and help others learning to use the camera or cameras . thankyou again , i have just looked at the fuji and for the price it is a lot considering the rx10iv is now about the same price and a whole lot more camera. thankyou again watch out for some new videos very soon just a very busy last couple of weeks.
I have only had this camera a few months and I love it. I find I am rarely using my Sony A7R4 even for bird photography. When there is a choice between lugging my 200 to 600 or this incredible bridge camera, the choice is easy. Yes, it only has a 1" sensor but I have been bowled over by the results. The only time it let me down was when trying to photograph a train of lights at night. The camera froze. Still not sure what happened, but I am sure if was something I did.
Awesome and it may have been the sd card causing trouble
@@sjm.photos Thank you. My guess too. And thank you for your great videos. So interesting and informative.
i can't believe that they have not released an update to this beast.
its still a beast thats the thing still selling and still very capable but fingers crossed
Thanks for sharing your precious experience with others.
Just a question, do you think that would be good option for someone to start some daily and bird photography just switched from cellphone to a real camers in 2021?
I ordered this and mine will arrive next week though with a price of 1200 US dollar.
Thanks
Thanks for watching. Its a brilliant camera and better than most people would ever need. Once you learn some photography basics and learn the camera i have a menu set up video in my list of videos plus loads more rx10iv videos. If you enjoy photography the rx10iv does more than enough and more
Great video and nice to know your pros and cons about this camera. Is this camera still worth buying today for a beginner or would you recommend something else?
thankyou for watching. the rx10iv is still amazing and for a beginner it will be a learning curve as even though it is a bridge camera it has more tech and options in it than most pro cameras.
作品非常棒! 在2023年一英寸传感器600焦段的rx10m4依然是很多人的第一选择，在二手市场价格和新机器不相上下，很期待rx10m5的到来！
cool
Bought my MarkIII in 4/17, then MKIV came out a few months later, figures! The lens is awesome, still waiting for MKV……Focus in lowlight is poor, fortunately you can manual focus. I travel with IPhone and RX10, all you could ever need!
still keeping fingers crossed for the rx10v
Hi Stuart, I have recently been a "background" viewer but have just subbed your channel. I am no photographer by anyone's standards, but I have always enjoyed getting out and just taking snaps with my current Sony set up (A7 II and assorted lens), but if I'm honest, I have lost the will to go out, carrying different lens for different situations, getting into a fumble and worst of all, dust on sensor!!!
My son has recently decided to adopt my old kit but I still have a hankering to get out and snap, so I am seriously looking at the this camera as an option. A simple point and shoot, with a bit of reach, in good light is all I am after and the RX10iv seems to be the ticket. I will order one very soon and start to go through all your videos that relate to this camera in the hope that I become more proficient with it. Many Thanks for your insight and presentations, take care.
hey there. and thanks for watching if you buy from wex photo video. they have a 30 day return so you can litterally try it for a month but the rx10iv is a brilliant bit of kit. not perfect but you learn to get the best from it
@@sjm.photos Thank you for the tip. I opted to get it via Cotswold Cameras as I save £300 and keep the manufacturers warranty. I ordered it today and hopefully it will be with me in 7 to 14 days. Cant wait to see what I can do with the RX10iv and how we can grow together. Keep me in mind for one of your possible walkabouts :) Many Thanks........
@@theoldhobbit3640 awesome will do where are you based?
@@sjm.photos Farnborough 👍
I follow you, and I've seen it beat to shit, that alone is reason enough to buy one. That being said, it is a great all-around camera. I would buy another one in a heartbeat.
awesome thankyou for following me. yep its gets used and abused lol. it is amazing thats for sure. i dont really want to have to buy another one for me its almost four years old and it needs updating so hopefully an upgrade sometime this year or next
I want Sony to go back to the 24-200mm lens with a ver good aperture, but with an APS-C sensor
I sometimes forget I have mine! I have a mk1 that I got for occasional corporate video flogging. Then I pull that thing out and remember how great it is. Maybe I keep an eye out for a mk2...do you use nd filters on your mk4? Great video! Subbed.
ah cool thats nice to know yes i have a video where i have a 10 stop nd filter made by pigiron not expensive and works well czcams.com/video/-LDaXKnP9iE/video.html
Hello, I have this question, how good does the manual zoom ring operate? Coming from the DSLR world and using my wife's Panasonic FZ1000 a few time, I am a little doubt about using another 'manual' zoom ring with a motor behind it. Thx.
its different but you can change speeds on it from fast. smooth. step so pretty useable you can also zoom in and out with the lever by the shutter aswell so 2 options just something you get used to like a viewfinder to evf
Hey brother Stuart. Thanks so much for sharing buddy. I am currently looking for a Camera for amazing pictures also to use for my youtube livestreams. Thanks for all your knowledge dude. Have a great weekend.
thanks for the kind words. no with sony imaging edge you can use the app on ur pc or mac and the webcam plug in from sony to live stream aswell.
@@sjm.photos Ok thank you Sir for that insite. Thanks so much buddy Stuart. God bless and stay safe.
You won't regret it !!
I meant to get one of these and instead got an A6400. I wish I hadn't now, the ability to shoot that focal range without lens swapping (and cost of lenses!) is something I wanted
including my full frame cameras i own i did have the a6300 but hated it and sold it to get the rx10iv never looked back and the rx10iv actually gives better images by far one reason speed and that range no lens swaps
I also sold my A6500 + lenses to buy RX10 mk4 and RX100 mk5. I regret having bought RX100 mk5, but I simply love my RX10 mk4. It only struggles in low light and blurry background due to sensor size. But for the second point, I've seen the images from James and he is able to get very nice blurry backgrounds, so I guess it is me needing to improve my skills hahaha.
Thanx for the review. I own the Panasonic FZ1000 for the last 6 years now. Good camera. I like it a lot, but now it's starting to show its age. I am thinking either to finally take the step forward in my photography (there are limitations to what a bridge camera can deliver as far as quality goes) and jump to a mirrorless, such as the Sony A6400. But, i am really drooling over the RX10iv, even though it is old, and maybe because of that, because it is amazing and now can be bought for affordable price second hand. Since you seem like an experienced guy, which of the 2 would you choose, and why? Thanx
thanks for the kind words Guy. i owned an a6300 before the rx10iv as a spare camera to go with my other full frame bodies and i actually prefer the rx10iv over the apsc body obviously the a6400 is an updated version of the a6300 but the main reason the rx10iv is so good is because its such a great package of quality zoom speed and even against the beasts of cameras the A1 and A7riva and A9 it still up there. yes not perfect and the buffering is slower than wed like its only real flaw is high iso over 1000 iso is a no go but then we have now topaz noise reduction AI and thats a game changer it easily lets you shoot upto iso 1600 without a problem. id say if you are happy to change lenses and think you might go full frame one day go for the A6400 or if you are happy to stay with an all in one the rx10iv is still a winner. hope that helps
@@sjm.photos Thanx for your reply.
Honestly, all three version of Sony's RX cameras is all the cameras a pro hobbyist need
RX100 for the discrete snapshot very easy to bring everywhere, good aperture range if you went with VA, surprising range if you get the Vii
the RX10ii and earlier are made obselete with the 100 vi release (other than on niche video use that need the ND and static Aperture the whole lens range), but with III and esp IV it has built reputation as a beast of a super zoom camera.
And the RX1R for the street pothography mood, when you want to be more deliberate in your shots, and demand the best iq possible in a small package, the upgrade to 40+mpix on the mkii make the 35mm lens have more flexibility of range than ever.
I wish they update every single one of them soon. Give them the new menus! give them 7RV monitors! AI autofocus chip! etc etc.
They have a place in this post covid world, for sure, so many new creators, so many changes.
People need to know what Sony can do with small fixed lens cameras again. Every single one of them is a value when you see what they can do, and what you need to pay to get even just slightly better result.
It's all about the lens with them really, they got that right from the start, now just build the camera behind that lens to be even more capable than ever.
the features on the cameras are more than most people will ever need or even get the best from totally amazing cameras
Could you help me please? I have been using this camera for over a year and love it. However, when I press the playback button, I only get a tiny image of my last frame plus a full histogram display, What I should surely get is a full screen image.
Pressing the display button in this situation does nothing. I can find nothing in any menu to change this either. What do I need to do to change this display? Thank you.
if you push the disp button which is the top section of the rear wheel right og the screen you can cycle through the different views
Didn’t sound like too many complaints…just looked at a used one yesterday in very nice condition. Would use for both a bit of video and photos. It feels so well made, but it is a bit big for my uses (hiking). Still quite tempting for those shorter days.
Only weighs a kilo ive carried it hiking all day forgot it was even there
@@sjm.photos I may have to send you a commission 😊
I'm a Canon DSLR and Sony a6000 user. I'm thinking to buying a 2nd hand one of these as I'd have a lot of fun using it in my seafront apartment in Spain overlooking sand dunes full of wildlife and of course the sea.
nice. yes its very useable and great for a walk out for the day aswell
I went from an a6000 to the rx10iv and although the resolution and sensor is smaller, I much prefer the rx10iv (both for stills and video).
@@AlbertaBound i found with the A6300 i had for a while never really liked the photos from it i actually think the rx10iv captures better images than the a6300
I have this camera, hanging out for the mark 5. Could you imagine this with an aspc sensor
i dont think it would ever happen due to the camera itself being designed around the sensor i mean 5 years on maybe they could but it would get bigger
I’ve desperately wanted this camera (mainly for its focusing) for 4 years but there are too many downsides at the price. With my luck I’ll buy one at the now reduced price and the mk5 will be released the next day. So I’ll persevere with my FZ2500 for now.
totally your choice , not really to many downsides yes its not perfect but it swamps the competition by miles so personally i think its worth every penny even though its not perfect
I need a camera with a 600mm range, but I've only recently found out about the Sony Rx 10M4 camera! In your opinion should I get the Sony Rxm4 or the Sigma 150-600? Use is to make funny youtube videos with hidden camera. Quality and Bokeh are essential.... So which one should I choose?
Depends on what camera you already own to put the sigma lens onto but the rx10iv then gives you a 2nd camera also has a huge range of 24-600 so highly useable gives as much bokeh as the sigma lens
I bought a Sony RX10 VI when it was first released and the lens was not sharp OR the AF was not working properly. It also had issues with Panoramas where it would stop halfway no matter what I did or what subject I chose to capture. I also did not like that you could not see the Art Filters live, like you can on Olympus and Panasonic cameras. It also does not have built-in ND filters.
There was many other issues but I know no camera is perfect that’s why currently I run five different systems!
I am reconsidering it now just for wildlife photography, especially birds in flight so that I do not have to spend $5,500+ on a decent camera and lens. It would also save my back!
I will just have to test another one in store to ensure that the AF/lens is producing sharp images because my first one simply was not. They were about 75% sharp but that is not good enough.
I am a retired pro photographer so I like to have sharp images and know how to get them.
Your images look sharp on all your videos so there is hope that I simply had a faulty camera last time.
anything man made will have faulty odd ones i think you were unlucky. i have had 2 rx10iv one replaced because i had abused mine massively and sony replaced it as a good will gesture for the price of the replacement lens. its a brilliant bit of kit yep hasnt got everything but we adjust our techniques to get the best from it. ive never bothered with art filters i shoot with it for as realistic photos as i can capture with it. raw and fully manual adjusting on the fly to get the best from it. i have a couple of videos on here and we shot the rx10iv vs a canon 1dx2 + 600mm f4 prime lens about £18000 worth of kit at the time and the rx10iv was producing shots as good as the canon as sharp and as many keepers the only difference was depth of field due to sensor size. yes low light it would have been a little different but now with topaz denoise ai that issue is gone.
I've had a Sony R1 since about 2005. It's a great camera but I think it struggles in low light, which is unfortunate as I'm a jazz musician. I think it has some trouble with back lighting too. How do you think the Rx10 iv fares in these regards?
Huge difference in camera tech i had an f828 back in 2004 cameras back then and now are so different. Rx10iv is still amazing today i notice the realism of images today is miles better also skies the blues aswell as othet things 17 years down the line . The rx10iv can stuggle in low light due to its limitations in sensor size in todays world but it is miles better than the r1
@@sjm.photos Thanks Stuart
Hope Rx10M5 could use FZ 100 battery and improve low light quality. But I didn't see any Rumors about when Rx10M5 will be released
yep would be amazing the bigger battery. there was rumours last year which turned into another camera but we can stay hopefull. as it was 5 years before sony replaced the a7s2 with the a7s3
yes y right noting is perfect think this sentence is the key of this report nice report many thanks
Thanks
Do you think the RX10 IV can be good for sports photos of amateur football without sun? So with artificial light
if there is enough light yes ofcourse the only issue maybe is banding from the lighting
I have a problem with focussing when shooting sports - specifically rugby. The camera seems to be unable to focus at 600. I would love to know how to overcome this.
Other than sending it for repair i would try though reinitialization of the camera go to settings the tool box and look for reset and in there is the option you will lose all custom set up but it will recalibrate the whole camera including focus and stabilisation etc back to factory setup. if it did it from day one it may have a problem anyway
@@sjm.photos Thanks Stuart. I will reset it I think. It does this randomly whilst other times it's straight on it.
I've had the RX10iv for a few weeks and am having trouble accessing all the menu functions, AND How come the viewfinder turns dark when you operate the camera in manual mode ?
in manual mode the evf and screen will show you a live exposure so if you speed up the shutter speed it will darken or slow it down lighten very very handy for real world shooting without worrying about if your shot will be under or over exposed as you can see its perfect or not live as you shoot. i have a full menu video and some shorter ones in the rx10iv playlist that may help.
@@sjm.photos Thanks Stuart, I'm more familiar with DSLR's which don't have the problem. Also have had three other bridge cameras which didn't have this anomoly, but there again they didn't have what you could call "full manual" mode. Apart from that I am impressed with the image quality, I am renting this one from CameraCorp and will probably keep it. I handed back a Nikon P950 because I was not happy with it (how many pix do I need of the moon?) In my other life I was a newspaper photographer so shot on film my whole career, I got on board with Photoshop a little before I was made obsolete from the industry, very handy ... Cheers
Do you mind sharing specifically what type of ceramic coating you use? I so appreciate all your videos! I've used the camera for about 3 years now and it's just hard to be it's convenience.
ceramic pro is the stuff i used on my car and tried a little on my rear screens of the cameras and they have never scratched so did the rx10iv and my a7riv aswell and my 135gm lens www.ceramicpro.co.uk/
It's a bridge camera with a hefty bridge toll. A few hundred more and you can get a a7 iii or iv
buy a a73 and a 600f4 lol good luck with that and the speed of the a9 and a much high spec of features in it compared to the a73. Its a pro level camera in a bridge format. Including the 600mm f4 lens that is as sharp as the canon 600f4 i know as we shot side by side with them.
Hi Stuart, I am tossing up between the RX10 IV and the Nikon P950, what are your thoughts?
Would either camera be suitable to take Aurora photos?
Cheers
rx10iv all day long. its just so much more sorted generally and the sensor is double the size. the rx10iv can do low light but its not as good as a full frame dslr or mirrorless so i canT really say the rx10iv would be ideal. it can do it but smaller sensors will struggle
@@sjm.photos
Thanks very much Stuart, I was leaning to the RX10.
I have owned both cameras and here are my findings…
P950 Benefits:
1. 333% more zoom!!! Not 10%, not 50%, not 100% but this camera will get you 333% closer to the action!
2. Nicer viewfinder.
3. Better menus.
4. Better weight balance (not front heavy).
5. $1200 cheaper (when first released).
6. Multi-angle LCD.
7. Sharper lens?
Sony RX10 IV Benefits:
1. Vastly superior AF (stills and video).
2. 2 1/2 Stops better in low light.
3. Weather sealed.
4. Vastly superior buffer.
5. Better charger.
6. Touch Pad to move your AF point via the LCD screen.
7. Lots of other lesser benefits.
I hope that this helps 😊
@@PhotoReactionVideoswhich one is sharper sir . Thanks
@@letran-kz7pw At 100 ISO the Nikon.
What i find also interesting with this camera is that you can shoot with an external battery charger and take multiple shots even with clear image zoom, probably the only Sony camera that can do this!!
charge and use at the same. that js so useful
Interesante vídeo, yo estoy pensando en comprar una de éstas, me Interesa más para fotografía que video.
it is still very good for photography
I have a fuji HS10 bridgecamera 28-720mm and I hope Sony makes a bridgecamera with aps c sensor and 150-900 mm lense.
Wont happen as the sensor dictates the size of the lens so i think we will see at a push 24-720 max

yep im local to it love the place
Brilliant camera but,with the flaws you mentioned.
If there is ever going to be a five think its going to be a long while now if ever.
Sony can be so frustrating at sales and releasing products,for instance the Xperia 1 mk 3 was announced last March and its still not released in the UK but, they keep telling you what it can do with the new alfa camera tech inside,sounds very good but, you cannot buy it. 🤬
its all down to the chip shortage they have postponed the new camera annoucment because of it.
I’m wondering if another company will be motivated to bring out a rival.
The technology is there, and as great as the RX10 IV is, it is 4 years old. Needed upgrades seem pretty obvious.
I guess that we shall see.
@@thjbird hopefully we have made enough noise on here for sony to notice its wanted and needed
It's a shame that Sony hasn't released an RX10V with real-time-tracking and some of their other refinements.
Wish list of cheap items from existing Sony tech: Real-time tracking, blackout-free EVF, replaceable EVF cup, UHS-II, battery department weather-sealing, Z battery, flip screen, 4K60, new menus, USB-C, and servo stabilization data.
the last firware updated it to realtime tracking for animals and yes everything you said would be amazing
@@sjm.photos that's just eye-AF. The RTT is something amazing on top of eye AF.
@@sjm.photos Where do I find the latest firmware? And how do I install it..
Found your video. Will give it a try since my firmware is 1.0.
I've had mine now for just under one year.
I'm a new stills photographer and still learning.
I have pretty much watched all CZcams videos that describe the Sony RX10M4
It's a 2017 camera and today' in 2021 cameras have some amazing features -- like faster buffering and faster memory cards, more accurate autofocusing with better eye detection, better battery life, better low light capabilities, and sharper images due to higher megapixels.
It's a well constructed camera with an excellent deep grip but again is a 2017 camera and I'm looking forward to a refresh unit/ mark 5 or similar camera with better ISO capabilities without noise.
This camera is a baby A9 and now there is an A9 ii so, I'd at least be able to upgrade to a RX10M4-2 with faster and more accurate auto focusing.
I'm hoping the new Mark V has the curved sensor that will allow better light-gathering for reduce noise. If they would put a 35 megapixel micro four-thirds sensor with a physically larger lens at half the focal length the camera would be capable of digitally zoom the image and producing better results then the 2017 RX10M4.
fingers crossed something comes this year
I don’t use my RX10iv much. Tried it for a while. Video is pretty good. Found the photos noisy. But that’s coming from a former Nikon D810 user… I find this camera’s strong point is it’s ability AND portability combo for traveling and hiking.
