OK, finally got to really test drive my RX100 by really taking a test drive, almost 500 miles and a hundred pics, so...
First stop was Fossil Falls, I have been to the Eastern Sierras many times, but never stopped here. Very pleased at the resolution of the camera, there really is close to 20MP of date in there.
Really wanted to test the camera as a hiking companion so headed off intending to reach Cottonwood Lakes
Only got a couple of miles in to the backcountry when the skies really started to threaten, serious close thunder began so my 8 mile hike got cut to 3 or 4, but found the old burned out trees a nice abstract subject to work with and a little Zeiss magic shows.
Headed over to Whitney Portal in the showers and tried a waterfall shot, F11 and handheld, I really can't wait until there is a RAW converter to work with these files and see if the hot whites are recoverable.
Alas, tomorrow is a work day, so back to L.A., but timing was nice so pulled off and caught a late evening shot, for now I am working a polarizer by holding it up in front of the lens (or if I tilt slightly up, it sits there fine)
100% crop, lots of detail, really SLR like..
And stopped in Chintown for some spicy fried rice to end the day, ISO 800 handheld
