    I'd send Adobe an email if I was you, with your computer specs and times for imports. They are looking for feedback before 4.2 goes live

    Sony Sony RX-100 User Thread

    I have a question for the kind folks that have posted pics in this thread. When you use the sony image data converter program and look at images at 100% (on my imac about four imacs big) how is the grain and focus. I'd love to compare and determine if there's some camera shake on my part in a...

    Sony Sony RX-100 User Thread

    Love the shot of your best friend. Really shows off the vibrancy of the colours achieved with this little camera. Seems to be a lot of focus on competition with the LX7 but I'm not sure why. I simply want to get the most out of this camera and am not too fussed whether some think the LX7 might...

    Sony Sony RX-100 User Thread

    A lot of so-called enthusiasts knocked the RX100 when announced because it had no external viewfinder. If the LX7 has that option attaching to the hotshoe maybe they'll go for that. I wanted a really pocketable camera and fully retracting lens. The external viewfinder isn't really that...

    Sony Sony RX-100 User Thread

    Yes, there's some sort of focal distance indicator in the bottom left corner of the display but as yet I don't understand the scale. For example, it has shown values for me between 0.4 inches and 2 inches so I don't know how that translates into real distance or what DOF scale it's using. This...

    Ray, I'm no expert but I'll try and answer. 1. It's instantaneous 2. There are two stops to the zoom - 8.6x and 17.1 3. You can obviously move the spot focus around and use peaking to help. As soon as you move the focus ring it zooms in to 8.6 x and then you move the spot using the up, down...

    Enjoy Keven. My recommendations at this stage are: 1. Familiarise yourself with the full manual at: DSC-RX100 | Cyber-shot User Guide 2. Use Sony's own image converter program to convert RAWs to TIFF/JPG at this stage until Adobe has an update. 3. If you use Lightroom, you may need to tweak...

    Sony Luminous Landscapes RX 100 review

    He doesn't even mention Handheld Twilight or Clear Zoom and those are already two of my favourite features. I took a picture in a very dark cupboard with the twilight mode without flash and I was very impressed. Equally, setting the camera to jpeg mode and 5 Megapixel size mode means the clear...

    Update My RX-100 arrived this morning from Hong Kong. It charged in under two hours on my desk and I'll start using it tonight after I've carefully installed an lcd screen protector. I've also paid a donation to RPP (Raw Processing Power) so I can shoot in RAWs and convert them to TIFF for...

    Sony Sony RX-100 User Thread

    Hi, I'm starting this thread to post user experiences (and photos) from this camera. Today I took the plunge to be an early adopter. I've done this a fair amount in my technology history and been burned a few times and been thrilled a few times. Examples of being burned: Oric personal...

    Hi From Sydney

    Thanks all for the warm welcome. With the announcement of the LX7 on 18 July in Tokyo I will convince myself to hold off on my purchase of the Sony RX100 till then. Meanwhile, I'm messing around with Lightroom filters and photos from my iphone 4s and old Canon TX-1 and am sure I'll post something
