New sony RX-0 :1inch sensor. Water/shock resistant.110 gram

Postby wildwanderer » Wed 13 Sep, 2017 5:57 pm

What do you guys think of the new Sony RX-0. ?

- Water/shock resistant with 1 inch sensor.
- Tiny and 110 grams
- ZEISS Tessar 24mm lens equivalent fixed at f/4.0
- $1,049.00 AU full retail price

Seems more of a action cam / video though... and some doubts about its low light performance.

The fixed 24mm lens is a deal killer for me but I bet GoPro are worried. This will take market share plus it is a lot more versatile than a GoPro.
