- A Great Camera for Varied Uses- November 29, 2020
The Sony RX10 IV is a great camera. I've had it for a while and I'm still learning how to use all the features. It's a bit....actually a lot... more complicated to use then a point and shoot camera, but you can choose to use it like one and let it automatically make all the adjustments/settings. It's a big camera and very similar to a DLSR in size. The big advantage is no lenses to change and the zoom is quite impressive. Battery life is pretty good but it's nice to have a spare, or two, on hand in case you're going to be taking lots of pics or shooting vids. Overall, an impressive camera that can do a wide range of tasks quite well.
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend. - Best I have owned- March 5, 2019
For a wildlife shooter and at times a sports shooter I have not found a camera that has given me the ability to stop a bird in flight. To freeze a surfer on a maneuver that would make you feel that this has one big wow. I have focused on a insect and a jet flying. It gives me surprise after surprise. I have found my camera and after all this time my limits have taken off. I have never entered a Photography contest. It was just for fun. It became more than fun when I am awarded a Judges pick and a First Place. Thank you Sony for the equiptment, And thank you to my wife and son who both said they were proud of their husband and Dad.
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend. - Excellent all in one camera- June 28, 2019
I have a lot of Canon DSLR gear with interchangeable lenses from wide angle to major telephoto, but this camera simplifies my travel situation substantially. It takes very good quality indoor photos, as well as landscape and telephoto shots outdoors. For many situations, it will be far simpler to be able to use a single camera, rather than drag around a (literally) 20 pound camera bag with all of my other gear, while still getting excellent quality photos. One can still shoot in manual mode to control ISO, f stop, and shutter speed, to allow control in situations with uneven lighting. I am very pleased with the purchase
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
