The Sony DSC-RX100M III Cyber-shot Digital Camera allows you to take the quality of your photos to the next level. Combining 20.1 MP (effective) image quality, a built-in electronic viewfinder (EVF), brighter and wider ZEISS lens, and compact size, the fixed-lens RX100 III is crafted for serious photographers on the go. Its unique combination of features also makes it an ideal choice for pros looking for a second camera to complement their interchangeable lens model.
20.1 MP Exmor R CMOS Sensor
The 1.0-type Exmor R back-illuminated CMOS sensor ensures bright, clear detail in all your photos and video. Sony's special back-illuminated design permits four times better light capture by moving light-blocking wire circuitry to the back side of the sensor.
XAVC S2, AVCHD and MP4 Codes
The DSC-RX100 III records HD movies in the XAVC S2 format, which uses MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 for video compression and linear PCM for audio compression, while saving files in a MP4 wrapper. The highly compressed files allow extensive record times. With 50Mbps Full HD (1920x1080) 60p high quality video recording, XAVC S2 enables beautiful video recording with minimal compression noise even in scenes with a lot of movement. Linear PCM is adopted for audio compression. The camera also records in AVCHD, ideal for quality video for HDTV and Blu-ray Disc burning. Additionally, users can shoot the easily shareable MP4 HD video, ideal for web.
HDMI Clear Output
Clear, uncompressed digital movie signal output can be transferred to an external monitor/recorder (connected via the HDMI terminal) simultaneously in real time from the RX100 III. The shooting info display can be turned off for even cleaner views of such movies on an external monitor/recorder. Frame rates include 24p, 60p and 60
Tiltable LCD Screen
This screen allows you to view and frame a shot clearly, the tiltable LCD screen is fast, flexible and works in bright sunlight + new LCD screen shows more details. This is a great feature for taking shots above the head of crowds, or low down from pet’s eye view. Just tilt the screen and frame your shot.
Built-in SVGA OLED Viewfinder
View every scene in rich detail with the bright and retractable SVGA OLED Tru-Finder. The viewfinder faithfully displays what will appear in your recording, including the effects of your camera settings, so you can accurately monitor the results. The ZEISS T* coating enhances clarity and reduces flare and reflection in the eyepiece optics.
Wi-Fi with NFC
Connectivity with smartphones for One-touch sharing/One-touch remote has been simplified with Wi-Fi/NFC control. In addition to Wi-Fi support for connecting to smartphones, the DSC-RX100 III also supports NFC - providing “touch connection” convenience when transferring images to compatible Android smartphones and tablets. Users need only touch devices to connect; no complex set-up is required. Moreover, when using Smart Remote Control connection between DSC-RX100 III and the smartphone can be established by simply touching devices.
F1.8 Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* Lens
The DSC-RX100 III sports an all new bright F1.8-2.8 Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* lens with 24-70mm zoom. The lens is perfect for portraits and macro shots with beautiful defocused - bokeh backgrounds. A premium multi-layered T* coating also dramatically reduces ghost and flare caused by light reflection.
