Wanted a tough scenario as my first shot out of this baby.

ISO 3200, 100mm f/2.8

Got to say, pretty impressed with the bokeh and minimal noise! More to follow...

Do you have a cat handy? Cats are normally used for new camera tests on FM and provide a consistent baseline for comparisons.

I thought ducks were the subject for first shots....or is that just for lenses?

I don't know ... that initial shot does not look that good to me.

That's why we need a FM Standard Test Phone. It can reveal differences between different gears.

Really? a P&S that has minimal noise @ 3200 ISO and bokeh @ 100mm? Keep in mind that I wasn't going for a great shot (obviously). Just wanted to test bokeh and noise.


Not really a field test.... if you have any doubts, Google Canon G7x review. Touted as one of the best P&S out there (and $100 less than the Sony RX 100 III).

Not sure you can really test bokeh with a 'macro' shot because almost everything except the subject is so OOF, try a cat

Have you seen The Camera Store review?

I have seen that review. It is the *only* one that favors the Sony over the Canon.

For me, I don't use or need the EVF and hardly ever shoot video. Those are the things that the Sony does better, no doubt.

I am loving the extra 30mm reach (and staying at f/2.8!).

Every other review I have read (believe me, lots) have put them on par in just about every category, except for the 2 aforementioned.

That is absolutely true... I have been doing some non-macro shooting and the results are impressive! I will post some soon.

Another quick sample (ISO 1000)

Non macro, really pleasing bokeh for a P&S.

Not gonna rival my 135L of course, but for this format, really amazing
