FWIW, the f1.8-4.9 aperture on this camera is about equal to f4.9-f13.4 on 35mm.
Another way to look at this would be that at its wide-end it is equivalent to f3.2 on NEX so about 0.3 stop faster than the NEX kit lens. On the long side the NEX kit lens is around 85mm equivalent and at that mark RX100 is likely to be around 1 stop slower than the NEX kit lens. Though the RX100 has a longer range of up to 100mm. So we have a camera which is fairly close to a NEX + kit lens combination in DOF and SNR terms and yet is tiny in comparison. I think thats impressive. At its wide end It is also only 0.4 stop worse in SNR and DOF capabilities compared to a NEX + the sigma 19mm 2.8.
Personally I am looking at it as a replacement for my wife\'s s95 for which it looks to be a great candidate as long as the price is not too high.
